Why do Humans scream during childbirth?

[Tisha]

men wouldn't be better at giving birth...most are worse then women

worse at giving birth? gee, I wonder why that is.

worse at handling pain..

Or maybe it's just that the pain isn't supposed to be occuring.

yes.. that must be it. i didn't know men weren't suppose to go through childbirth..

[DAZMCFC]

i'm not saying it does not hurt like hell giving birth(i was there at both my childrens birth), but being the most excruciating, i think not. surely this has to be in the torture chambers of the Tower of London or the Spanish Inquisition. imagine the pain some of them had to go through to denounce their respective religions.

[Pedronicus]

Well I stand corrected (said the man in the funny shoes)
Julie didn't scream. She grunted like someone having a big shit, but no screaming, no swearing, no telling me that she would like to cut my cock off for doing this to her. She got on with the job in hand and delivered a baby in under an hour with minimal sweating, no epidural, no caesarian section, just gas and air.

baby was born on 3rd April 14:36 and weighed 7lb 15oz. and we have at long last come up with a name.
Here is Lucy (3 hours old)

Nice work Ped!

Regarding the original question, God issued pain during child birth as one of the punishments for eating from the tree of knowledge.

That is a beautiful baby!

[kiddicus maximus]

a better question is:

why do all women scream after the chloroform wears off?

[jay_a2j]

When ever i watch a nature programme, all other animals just seem to give birth with no noise.
They often have babies that are larger than humans in comparison to body size as a percentage.

Why do women scream? (are they just whimps?) - I think if men could bear children, men would make a lot less noise, drive home from the hospital and be back at work the next day.

You want the truth? Because Eve sinned. And men have to work because Adam sinned. (Well, until the welfare state came to be)

Proof plz. Or is this another "Imaginary Sky-Daddy said it and it must be true because imaginary Sky-Daddy said that he is always true, which must be true because of what he just said" fallacy?

Oh, of course it is, I forgot that I was replying to Jay.


Also Jay, just so you know, the reason that you sometimes can't achieve a turgid state of erection is because the serpent sinned.

Just letting you know.


PS. Your God is a liar. It must be true because Imaginary Sky-Daddy2 (Lucifer) said it and you can't prove otherwise. I win.

Nice work Ped!

Word. Good that you can do something practically every man can do.

What's pink, has had its head chopped off and is buried in my backyard?

[KoolBak]

Be-Jeebus Pedro.....I want to be there when you ask that question IN PERSON to a room full of mothers. The carnage would be hilarious (and quick).

I'll leave it to you my friend; I been thru a lot of pain and I'll take it all threefold over that freaking nightmare.....I was forced to be present at my two sons' births and I could barely stand it. The "beauty" of childbirth my arse...lol.

I happily acknowledge the females' superiority in this matter

I haven't read this thread...so this may be a repeat.

It doesn't hurt that much.

Women scream for different reasons.

Some women know that men will never be able to prove that it doesn't really hurt that much, so they scream like that to gain the sympathy of their mate.

Some women love the feeling of baby-head-sized penetration. They really want to scream "Oh Yessss!!! I'm commmmiiiinnnngggggg!!!" But they know their mate would be asking them for years "So you really like a huge cock, eh?" "Is my cock big enough?" Etc. etc..

And some women just scream because they can't keep their fuckin' mouths shut for two minutes while their mate video tapes the fetish porn tape that is gonna pay for the new plasma TV.

This brings me nicely onto my next point regarding childbirth.

Men who go to the birth and faint are poofs.
What were they expecting to see? Some sort of Disney version of childbirth, where the woman opens her legs and a stork flies out of her quim with a baby in a white sheet in it's beak?
I cut the umbilical cord (that thing is as tough as barbed wire to chop through) and had a good butchers at the head (all red and purple and looking like the top of a predators head - minus the dreadlocks) being pushed out in the early stages.


I'd go to the next birth, if she had one, and it wouldn't put me off eating raw steak.

[KoolBak]

lol....yeah - I am glad I did it....I just dinna enjoy it....lol. Good for you, and congrats Daddy!!!

You're a shit team mate in a risk game and an even bigger shit mod clapper.

[Backglass]

My wife never screamed once with any of our kids.

Screaming does nothing but expend needless energy anyway. It's counter productive.

Come to think of it, when our kids were born there were at least a dozen other women giving birth at the same time. I never heard any screaming.

Spoken like 2 boys who obviously got all their "information" on women from bathroom walls and porn flicks.

Hey, if you married an uptight bitch, don't take it out on me!

[neanderpaul14]

i had Demerol with my first..

I'm a guy so I will never know what this feels like, nor do I ever want to, however Demeraol does make anything more enjoyable

[PLAYER57832]

Hey, if you married an uptight person, don't take it out on me!

Try again ..

Yes, those epidurals do wonders.

Some women are lucky enough to have relatively little pain, for a lot of physical, chemical and yes, emotional reasons. Some people don't wince when they bang their fingers with a hammer, either.

[TheProwler]

Try again .. if you have any brain cells left.

Haha! Denial.

Separate beds, no oral....I'm getting the picture. No wonder you seem so frustrated and full of anger.

Seek professional help. (I think you can get a blowjob for around $100.)

You are missing the point.

You are equating the amount of screaming to the amount of pain.

The suggestion has been made time and time again that it could just be that some women are wimps. In my opinion, that's all a low tolerance to pain is, in most cases. It is an emotional and mental weakness, not a physical difference.

Why on Earth would you bang your fingers with a hammer?
