Poll: What hurts more: kicked in the balls or giving birth?

[DRobert]

Last time I got socked in the nads, it didn't last for five hours plus. It also didn't involve pushing something the size of a watermellon out of a hole the size of a lemon.

Also, I would imagine that, across history, a few more people have died in agony in child birth than after getting hit in the crotch.

Yeah, I'm going to go with the one that can quite literally kill...

believe it or not, this has come up in conversation twice in my lifetime. a kick in the balls doesn't compare, from what i've been told. after a lengthy discussion among three male friends and one female one, the nearest approximation we came up with that men would have is having your balls slowly crushed by an iron-maiden-style device while passing a kidney stone the size and dimensions of a loaf of bread.

(my friends and i have long, weird talks about strange things.)

Giving birth.
Also, why do some guys make such a big deal out of a kick in the balls? Belive me, there are alot of far worse stuff you can do to someone (male) to cause pain.

Having been kicked in the nuts by a black belt in taekwondo - spooked my brother one time - I can assure that the pain from a true ball-kicking is far from temporary.

 

[Zacharious-khan]

because you are comparing exclusive vantage points, since no person can tell you what both feels like the question is moot

When a woman gives birth a few months later she may think , hey I want to have another baby. When a man is kicked in the balls he will never think, hey I want another kick in the balls.

I will simply answer by stating for a FACT that men were not designed to be kick in the testicles but women were designed to give birth.

Argument DONE, that said; from a purely objective scientific stand point there are a lot more nerve endings that become agitated during birth than when being kicked. I'd say on a (pain/# of nerves) ratio, guys hurt more, but on a total scale of pain, birth dominates.

You obviously have never seen anything but an ideal childbirth. Let me tell you, in anything but an ideal one, there will be (all or some of) blood, shit, tears, screaming, flesh tearing, painkillers not really working or some other complications, vomitting, emotional distress, sharp pain, and pride and dignity flying away. It isn't pretty or nice or "the miracle of life" in most cases.

And on topic, this topic is stupid and impossible to answer because generally you don't have testicles if you have a womb. Neither are usually all that functional if you do.

Ok,let's play dirty.You want to whip out the most painful type of birth that happens when you have no access to the hospital nor painkillers?
I see your scenario and raise you a kick to the balls so powerful,it crushes the testicles,mangles with the "wires" inside the scrotum and tears the cavity in the penis.
Yeah,not only do you get the pain of the kick,but you probably have to get the balls amputated.You wanted kids?Too bad it's me,kick to the balls!As an added bonus,you may experience severe depression due to the lose of your manhood.How's that for emotional distress?

Again,not taking sides,but if some people want to and you bring a ridiculously painful scenario to your side,know that the other can conjure one up just as easily.

 

[fates_puppet13]

odd how people have to state which one if at all

i'de say giving birth sounds alot more painful from description

but getting hit in the balls is alot more likely to occure to a guy than a girl is to give birth

 

[persopolis]

doesn't that depend on in what position you are giving birth?

 

[Harlemura]

I'd guess child birth hurts more. Having a little human squeezed out of anywhere can't be a pleasant experience.
On the flipside, you can get kicked in the balls a lot more frequently than once every 9 or so months.

 

[chrono16]

I believe a kick to the balls would hurt more. A square on hard kick right to the balls as hard as a guy could kick would probably smash your nuts or cause severe damage,and you would probably vomit. Not to mention you would probably also pass out from the pain. And piss blood for a while. At least with Child Birth you would get drugs and a KID after it. So you get reward for your pain. Where is the reward for being turned into a woman???

 

[loc978]

I've been kicked in the balls plenty of times, and the pain usually subsides (to a minor throbbing) within ten minutes. It's far from the worst pain I've felt. Broken bones, a gunshot wound, and definitely a spinal tap were all far worse.

I've witnessed a woman in labor for over 12 hours, in agony the entire time. Can't say if that was worse than anything I've felt, but being kicked in the balls definitely doesn't hold a candle to it.

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

Maybe if guys got a free kitten 9 months after getting kicked in the balls, it'd be an easier question to answer

Can't really just run up and put a woman instantly thru childbirth, unlike the swift boot to the happy sack.

Using that logic, are you implying that women get a baby 9 months after childbirth...!?

 

[Sunrider]

Being kicked in the balls!
Until I experience giving birth, I'm gonna go with what I have experienced.

 

[dj_8612]

6 words that the average mother says that prove that getting kicked in the balls is worse
"I want to have another baby"
Case closed

 

[Ritalynn]

I don't know anybody in the past 10 years who hasn't just had a baby cut out of them, Scheduled, with drugs.

So i gotta say straight up football going for a 50 yarder kick to the balls.

 

[FolkLikePanda]

Giving Birth - Sometimes the women wants another one
Kick In The Balls - Bloke never wants another one

 

[Ghengis John]

The kicker is as much as I might naturally assume "giving birth" there is nobody in all the world who can give you a direct, first hand comparison.

 

[somonels]

It's a lot easier to avoid childbirth, most experience the pain because they chose it, which is not the case with damage to the gonads, blunt or otherwise.
