Talk:Scold's bridle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

a pubescent sm fantasy

While I agree that the previous article was prurient nonsense ("scolding hot" was a funny bit of pseudo-etymology though), it is a real device; it was used, in one form or another, up until the Victorian era. --Mirv 14:45, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Feminist take on scold's bridles

I remember reading that feminists in England or Scotland had worn scold's bridles, or something like them, as part of an event recounting the oppression of women through the ages. Would this be an appropriate addenda for this article? Pat Powers 15:30, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
