An epidemic has occured. It is implied that a healthy expression of sexuality is a key component of sanity, that repression of sexuality leads directly to insanity. "In this hospital we surround the patients in a sexless environment, thus successfully removing any physical or mental rememberence of manhood." A whip shows dominance, it is an instrument of pain used to humiliate and make the victim feel inferior. The women in here with the exception of prostitutes, are portrayed as conniving, domineering, controlling, cruel human beings. "For instance When he finally discovers his manhood through sex, he is filled with the guilt his mother had instilled in him and eventually is driven to suicide." The hospital with only female nurses and only male patients implies that even the most masculine of men can be rendered impotent by the hand of a woman.
