Umm, what?

Women using poison to murder their husbands is an old trope – one going back as far as Claudius's poisoning, which implicated his wife Agrippina. "Arsenic Annie" Nannie Doss saw off four husbands, as well as most of her family, in the span of four decades (she confessed to the murders in 1954). And now a Brazilian woman may soon be added to this pantheon of gloom. Although this alleged attempted homicide was unsuccessful, the method will certainly go down in history: she allegedly put poison in her vagina, and invited her husband to perform oral sex on her. The man became suspicious while down south, surprised by an "unusual smell". He took her to hospital, where the poison was found.



I'll leave commentary to others.

If you read on, it does become an interesting story on the idea of men fearing vaginas.

I did. Her part about the mythology of sex and death in the lady garden kind of had me laughing. Other then the fearful ickiness some might feel about a woman's natural biology (men are hardly the only ones confined to that category), I suspect that much of the disrepute some men attach to vaginas is rooted in their own sexual inadequacies (either by lack of self-control or impotency). While she refers to vagina dentate in her article, I envision the succubus as the mythological embodiment of a man's fears and anxieties about women and sex.

The man became suspicious while down south, surprised by an "unusual smell".



I never thought I would have reason to repeat this adage, but it seems appropriate here:
"If it smells like fish, make it a dish. If it smells like cologne, leave it alone."
