When a man is 'hysterical' it's just passion , or vigor, or principle. This is another example of the gendered history of supposed hysteria being lobbed by a dumbass.
In the old days when hysteria was an actual medical diagnosis the treatment was what we would think of as sexual assult today.

(12,154 posts)6. Is "hysterical" worse than "shrill"?
I'm a little fuzzy on the scale of "bossy," "aggressive," "pushy," "moody," "emotional," "ball-busting," etc. I'm sure some asshole Republican can clarify.
