Oh great, I'm really looking forward to November, that's just what I needed to see
They should do a roadshow with that equipment and offer it to guys all over the country, that would be fun, I'd go and watch. Heck, I'd pay to watch - their wives were having a well good laugh! ____________________ What would you do in life, if you knew you could not fail?

Obviously a biased opinion but I bet loads of women get all righteous about the pain they have to endure during childbirth even if they don't have kids yet, and when it comes to it a lot of pain can be numbed away anyway.

Well, the options for pain relief seem pretty limited:
Gas and air - some say it is as much placebo as anything
Pethidine - opiate based painkiller that will cross over into the baby (not really something I'd want to go for and is generally falling out of favour
Epidural - numbs you from the waste down meaning you won't be able to walk around, which is something recommended whilst in labour. I don't like the idea of losing ALL feeling, that might be the control freak in me.
Sooooo, I'd say, for most women, it's still a bloody excruciating process. I know for my niece she massively regretted having an epidural cos that ended up causing more problems than it was worth  ____________________ What would you do in life, if you knew you could not fail?

I guess my gripe is that the men were pretty much convulsing in more agony than I've ever seen on any standard childbirth vid. I don't really think any gender is better than the other at coping with pain (it's surely quite subjective anyway). I saw another video of some Dutch blokes doing the exact same thing, simulating the pain of labour, and they too were all curled up in agony and generally hating it. The imbalance seems a little OTT, kind of like, "let's make men feel bad, nay, worse than they would actually feel if it were the real thing!"
I have no idea why I'm being such a cynical bastard here. For the record I best say that I do of course highly admire women for all the things they do that men can't even possibly ever understand. Of which there are many . |

There's a big difference between the way pain is inflicted on these men and actual childbirth though. The men have nothing to focus on except the pain. The women would be focussing on the fact that they have to give birth, to a baby, and concentrate on when to push etc. I've also read that women following childbirth release certain hormones which make you kind of forget about the pain of it; hence why we do it again. ____________________ What would you do in life, if you knew you could not fail?

If it was that bad, don't you think that the human race would have become extinct? Women keep getting pregnant - many have more than one so it doesn't seem to put them off. ____________________ Current bike: Kawasaki Z750S |

It's something pretty painful I'm sure of it, but let's not forget that the female body has been "built" for this to happen. Their body releases hormones to make it bearable. And as someone else has mentioned it's not just the pain they experience at that given time, it's the whole giving life thing, that probably helps them to keep on going.
That said, I repeat I'm not saying this's something easy, but you can't compare the male and female body in this respect as there are a few major differences..if you haven't noticed  |
