Childbirth is pain with a purpose (most of all at that point to get your body back so you can walk without your spine splitting in two laugh ). Don't think it can be compared with pains from illness or injury, as you know billions of mammals have gone through it, and many go through it just at the same time you do all over the planet. It's a natural thing, and while definitely painful, it lacks the fear and panick of other pains when the body is telling you something is terribly wrong, in my view at least.

I would disagree with you on "lacks the fear and panic of other pains", lol, esp if it's your first one. Someone tried to tell me this when I was pregnant, and I had to remind them that yes, although it is natural, it is MY first time, and therefore I guess the "fear of the unknown" is def present. But regardless, a worthwhile pain.

Pain from any other source is usually a sign that something is wrong - the more severe the pain, the more our "danger" light flashes. It's your survival instinct. Again, also natural.

MADDOG69: Ah here... there has been over 100billion human births since our existence. Could ya find something a bit more unique?



Childbirth or War? Which demands the greater tolerance for pain? The greater courage? Mmmmm? Remember there's no epidural for a 7.62mm round to the head

tinyfangs: 2WW (I am the baby chick of the family by a loooong way), and he was only 16 when he ended in the trenches, and he spent years in them, was shot through the throat, had one clean scare where it had entered, and a torn one where it had exited... He could not stick his tongue out straight due to that, which had me giggle as a little girl, innocently unaware of the terrors he had witnessed.

And I spent one evening with a Vietnam vet in the States, who kept telling me he had never shot a baby while crying like one...

I'd never joke about war!
I am completely anti-army etc

tinyfangs: I am anti-war, but I also know sometimes it appears human nature does not allow it to be avoided, human history seems to indicate that.. and those who fight in them need to be taken serious and need support in my view.

and I know face, not trying to be difficult here, just not something I take lightly at all.


I never disputed that!
And I do understand the dynamics of war being necessary and unavoidable!

The same thing that has and will always cause wars; Statism.

Only States go to war.

The only way to end war is to end Statism

And now I must end this day

States yes, but did humans not war already in tribes?

I went out with a Vietnam vet for 2 years. He would wake up roaring some nights and he would cry that he never shot any man who wasn't trying to shoot him. He was very hard to live with because of what he had been through.

I don't know if Man Flu is any worse than regular flu but I do wonder if men make a fuss about being sick because they find it hard being vulnerable. It can only be justified if their illness is really, really bad. It's just a theory. dunno

That is quite a good theory, but also.. how often do men receive pity? I mean when a man cuts himself, and I see this often here with my contractors, they tend to not flinch, they just get on with it. I think many are not used having a fuss made for them nor do they make one. Cold/flues though last, and they can't just shrug it off same as a cut? So maybe that's their time to panick a bit inwardly, because they feel helplessly subjected to it? And our time to pamper them and make that fuss they don't allow us to make about when they cut themselves?

Just pondering myself here lol

I wonder if we could really compare the worst ravages of POF with Vietnam? However, I'm sure your suffering was greater than mine comfort

Personally, I've never come across a man who made more of fuss than usual about being sick. This "man flu" thing is something I've only heard of in the last couple of years in a derogatory way. Anytime any of the men in my life have complained of being ill, I've taken them at their word and taken care of them appropriately as much as I could at the time and it's always been appreciated and reciprocated. Flu is nasty.

the whole thing about the male and female flu will never be

resolved in my opinion we are 2 totally different souls altogether

its like the male climax women cant experience what that feels like

except for the grunting and farting afterwards and us males cant

experience the female climax we can only hope shes not faking your

masterpiece of love making , so we cant really say about each others

true feelings ,
