When Japanese courtesans got pregnant, what did they do? Who did the baby belong to? Did their lives get better or worse?
*Process for ending a pregnancy: The woman was tied and gagged on the floor. They used a long chopstick-like tool and dipped it into the drug mixture, then inserted it into the womb, piercing the fetus. This was supposed to induce a miscarriage. Sometimes they didn’t use the chopsticks, but other things like barley stalks. Obviously, it was a dangerous procedure.
