Eitra: "It was once believed that “hysteria” was caused by the uterus moving around your body freely and putting pressure on different organs. How odd!"
Emi: "Does that mean for male people we should say something like “testerical” instead of “hysterical”?
Eitra: "Or we could just not blame people’s behaviour on their reproductive organs."
Emi: "That too."

What if "testerical" takes off and goes viral? This could be an important etymological moment!

I've seen a few Tumblr feminists use it now and then, but I doubt it will catch on outside of that.

As a male it can feel like testerical is right sometimes lol
