Edit: misread. I thought you asked what this was about. Yeah, I'm sure it wasn't just here.

~~Men would sometimes have doctors add an extra stitch to women after childbirth to make them tighter. I think I've even heard sometimes doctors did it without concent of either party. Some women didn't even know it was done until they had complications and found out.~~

It's called the husband stitch and it is exactly as horrid as it seems if not moreso. Hopefully a dying trend.
