The Magdalene Asylums
were Catholic institutions for “fallen women” (women deemed immoral by
their parents), who were confined there indefinitely to work as slaves
for nuns and be beaten, degraded, mentally and sexually abused.
In the Middle Ages, right? No. The last Magdalene Asylum closed in 1996, in Ireland. (A 2,600-page report on the abuses of Magdalene Asylums was released in May, 2009.)
