Dangerous stuff

April 1, 2015

plinius de oudere

Amateur scientist Pliny the Elder in Naturalis Historia, 1st century AD, about the impact of menstrual blood: ‘The wine is sour, flowers wilt, seeds dry out, bee colonies die, even the mirror becomes dull and loses its gloss ivory’. Long story short: dangerous stuff!

More quotes?
Bleeding out the moisture: Hippocrates
Deformed males: Aristotle
She so cold ….
Women complain …
Men do not menstruate…
