And the footnote goes like that:
(*) Wilehm Fliess, The relations between the nose and the feminine genital organs (1897), Paris, 1977. Friend and correspondant of Freud, W. Fliess mentions the nosebleeds as true menstrual substitutions.


So, according to Artarit, Robespierre suffered from nosebleeds, because he wanted to menstruate.
I mean, WTF.
