This happened at a hospital where I'm a nurse.

Patient: I think I've got some kind of a tumor! But it doesn't hurt at all!
Me: That's not a tumor.

I think just about everybody who's worked in a hospital has a story like that.

I'm just amused that so did people in the 19th century.

I think that's something that humans have been doing as long as we've had opposable thumbs. We see an opening, we stick something in it.

The greeks used to have radish-sodomy as a punishment for felonies.

Hence Gould's famous saying: "casual sodomy is a contingent of history."

Yes, but, aside from this, 19th century doctors have very similar reports.

I'm fairly sure if you read Hippocrates carefully enough you'll find "Legionnaire vindicatum ut insertio capulum Laetus eram penitum an casus ut is lubricus in pluo"

("Legionnaire claims that insertion of hilt of Gladius was entirely an accident as he slipped in the shower")

"...his parting gesture of affection."

Maybe it's his way of letting her know she's "not so fresh?"

It had to be said.
