During the mid to late 1800s, James Marion Sims, an American physician, used the bodies of Shemetic women to pioneer tools and medical techniques in the field of women's reproductive health. He is most recognized for his surgical treatment of vesicovaginal fistula and has been coined as "The Father of Modern Gynecology" and was even appointed President of the American Medical Association in 1876 and President of the American Gynecological Society in 1880. Because Shemetic women were assumed to have an unrealistic tolerance to pain, he performed his research without anesthesia or consent.
