J Marion Simms, the Father of Ginacology

J marian sims was one of the first people to practise gynicology a recognized modern way. He invented some of the most basic tools that are still used today in the trade. M, he is not a medical grifter, and he was not full of shit. Am, what he was was a guy who used enslaved people as test dummies on which he could li cut at his will. One of the reasons for this is that a lot of our early understanding of what medicinal herbs were came from observing animals. This is how we probably learned about different things including the different types of plants - like clays or clathridans. They may have even had names before
