Claiming, or assuming, that women, as a collective, are hysterical as a property of their weak feminine brains, is indeed sexist
actually, women as a collective would not be hysterical due to their weak feminine brains. that's entirely the wrong region of the body. instead, they'd be hysterical due to their hysteras, which is greek for "womb" or uterus.
hysteria, in victorian england was a "disease" women got from time to time. only women, and not men, as men do not have wombs. it was treated by having a skilled doctor manually masturbate the woman, sometimes with a device called a "vibrator." vibrators were later marketed to women as home health appliances. in serious cases, a procedure called a "hysterectomy" (ie: removing the hystera) would be performed.
it modern terms, we might equate "hysteria" with "pms."
