I'm thinking that if someone was institutionalized for it they were probably having compulsive issues. Otherwise every single human on the planet would have been put away.
Yeah, I'd like to think that too, but who knows? I just read about some doctor who was put in a mental institution because he was a crazyman, claiming that doctors should wash their hands after handling cadavers, if they were to deliver babies. I wonder (honest question; don't know the answer) what proportion of people were institutionalized based on simple non-conformity.
