Whilst contemplating where the next three points are coming from, I came to this conclusion...men are deep thinkers...yeh? I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer. The day was reasonable weather wise, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking. My bride walked by and asked me what I was doing and I said 'nothing'. The reason I said that instead of saying 'just thinking' is because she would have said 'about what'. At that point I would have to explain that men are deep thinkers about various topics which would lead to other questions. Finally I thought about an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts? Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts. Well, after another beer, and some heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with the answer to that theory. Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby; and here is the reason for my conclusion. A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another child." On the other hand, you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts." I rest my case. Time for another beer. Now Tottenham hmmmm!
Oh Masked One Self praise is no recommendation. And self abuse is just...................................................................................wan<>ing!!!
Masky - it all depends on your age at the time. Getting kicked in the nuts can have a delayed action. For example, I was about 14 at the time and was playing in a youth side at Newbridge Fields in Bridgend. The manger/coach/trainer (whatever he was called) for the opposition was allowed to play for them because they were one short. I suppose he was about 40 at the time. As the game progressed, I was caught a pearler in the plums by the said manager and went down like the proverbial sack of **** right on the touchline. Our trainer came on and immediately put his hand down my shorts to count them (I think he was a little bit Rolf Harris TBH, and enjoyed it). Funilly enough, it didn't seem to hurt that much and I was up and at them again just as soon as I could get this guy to take his hand out of my shorts. Later in the game, the said opposition manager playing right back for them (I was a left winger at the time) had the ball at his feet and I inadvertantly slipped whilst tackling him and my foot somehow accidently missed the single ball and caught his pair full square on. Now if you've ever seen a Watutsi war dance you'll have an impression of the effect. He was evetually hepled off by I think it was his wife who I don't think was very happy with me. There you go - so if size doesn't matter, age certainly does14 or 40 - it sure makes a difference.
A word in support of the ladies........the comparison is not fair...a kick in the nuts does not last too long. Childbirth is generally much longer and takes a bit of getting over with stitches etc. Anyway, the comparison should be to having a a huge crap after a long wait, including constipation....think of it as passing a log...the biggest one you've ever had to get rid of....and then think this log is going to take 20 mins or more to come rather than a quick stretch of the ring!!!!! But, Masky, I love your answer to the missus....avoids all that explanation and a breaking of the thought process. She probably would not even have understood the concept y0u were perusing anyway, regardless of what it was.
According to this the pain is the same. I disagree, in the nuts is most painful. In the words of the narrator " a kick in the balls can hurt, a lot." [video=youtube;FJeuK1Pl2bQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJeuK1Pl2bQ[/video]
