Which causes the greater pain?

For women its undoubtedly child birth.
For men it's a kick in the, erm, testicles.

But which is the most painful?

I'd go for the kick in the testicles.



Don't beat me up, it's just lighthearted.

Re: Which causes the greater pain?

From all the different pains I get, I would say they are all pretty much great
Childbirth horrendous, but then when its over that's it - ongoing pain wherever it is, is a pain

A kidney stone is not a lot of fun-for a male think goolies in a vice

Re: Which causes the greater pain?

Well I wouldn't know what a kick in the wots-its feels like, any more than the men would know what childbirth feels like, so I cannot really compare these pains.

All I can say though is at least after labour pains you get a reward.

Re: Which causes the greater pain?

What a strange topic
Tpin you can't really quantify pain because it is about intensity and duration .

The stages of birth can go on for many hours and it is not a pain one would want to repeat too often

Ha ha - nicely put

I was once hit in the Crown jewels by a cricket ball that had been bowled at approx. 75mph. I could not stand up, let alone walk for about half an hour and I was wearing a box which ended up with a concave indentation in it!
I've never had a baby but if that is worse I insist on protection.

Also in a light-hearted spirit

Many Years ago a song was sung by Rugby men and others. after a Match with much gusto, one of their many rude but hilarious songs.

Words:

Have You......ever had your B.......s in a Rat Trap? A Rat Trap? A Rat Trap? Tra.. La.. La and so on.

Is there two L's in B........s?

That indeed would be most painful !!

Re: Which causes the greater pain?

The worst pain I ever experienced was
1 at the dentist having a tooth removed with not enough local anaesthetic in the gum.
2 After abdominal surgery, recouperating at home when my body decided to reject the catheter...now that was really painful, had to call out the emergency doctor at 3am who removed it immediately.

I still say a kidney stone lasts longer. Cricket is odd-the ball pitches and hits where is best not nice,one crumples and the fielders laugh-that`s cricket
