I think to Scottish women’s “women won’t wheesht”.

Americans go 1970’s: “I will Not stifle myself!” and “you stifle yourself! Stifle, stifle, stifle!”

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/stifle

to prevent something from happening, being expressed, or continuing: * She stifled a cough/yawn/scream/sneeze. * I don't know how I managed to stifle my anger. * We should be encouraging new ideas, not stifling them.
