Arthur Miller's the Crucible has made Salem infamous for its witchery. Since his play, many have retold the story of religious paranoia. However, a new look has revealed insightful clues on how such hysteria could have been pervented.
The solution was latent, yet because it was socially unaccepted, it remained suppressed. The Egyptians applied it 2,000 years before the puritan settlers.
How obvious was it that the "whore's revenge" was not going to be remedied with mere talk. If only the puritans had given poor Abigail Williams a dildo to satisfy her sexual desires, wrongly prosecuted settlers would not have been killed. A wooden stick in shape of a phallus has always served as a panacea for hysteria that has sprouted in female waters.
History has shown us that true solutions have been eschewed only due to their repulsive faces.
