    I was in hard labor without any pain medication for 10 hours while I was giving birth to my second daughter. Now if any guy out there can prove to me that it takes TEN HOURS for the pain from being punched in the nuts to subside, then we can have a reasonable debate.

    First of all men will usually get kicked in the balls more often than an average woman will give birth. And I bet you were offered pain medication before giving birth, when we get kicked in the balls its usually without warning, and without getting offered any pain medication. Then last but not least you said it was your second daughter witch suggests one of two things either you are too stupid to use protection, or the reward outweighs the pain.

    (1) No, as a matter of fact, I was not "offered medication", as I very clearly stated in my post. At least, there was no medication for the first 10 hours of labor because I was not sufficiently dilated. Please introduce me to ANY guy who has been kicked in the nuts consistently for 10 hours and then we can reasonably compare pain levels. (And by the way, even after getting the medication, there is generally still some level of pain during birth - how some women do it "naturally", I'll never know.) (2) Severe pain, expected or not, is damned uncomfortable. Your suggestion that giving birth should somehow hurt less because the experience is planned certainly does not resonate with ANY woman who has spent hours of intense labor with nothing more than Lamaze techniques to ease the pain. (3) "Too stupid to use protection" in the matter of my pregnancy. What a lovely suggestion, particularly as you're making it to a complete stranger. You've done a very eloquent job here of reminding me of why I so seldom visit this place any longer: too many members with big mouths and little brains.

    It really doesn't matter, because no man can prove that they've felt real labor and no woman can prove that she knows what it feels like to receive a kick to the testes. So, the answer will never be known, all of your comments are just opinions and speculation.

    Since my mom have given birth to me and broken her arm, she says that breaking the arm hurts more then giving birth!
    And a real kick in the nuts hurts more then a broken arm.
    So a kick in the nuts hurts more then giving birth!

    Maybe the best way a girl can get to know at least a bit about how a guy might feel - is to take a knife and stab it hard into your eyeball OR make someone kick you on your open eye ball. See how painful that can be?? Getting kicked down there will be still 10 times more painful. But a small slap unknowingly by the hand, can cause pain for about 20 mins but a forced kick can kill a man, not just cause some pain over 10 hours!! Here hours does not even count because other one kills.

    So if people here has some brains, they will know that someone saying a fact that 10 x times more pain is more than child birth pain. everyone knows maths here right?

    It is like saying getting pierced by a needle over 10 hours is more painful than being stabbed forcefully on your sensitive part.

    Getting kicked is a much worse pain which goes away quickly however child birth is constant pain for hours at a lower level. To answer the question its being kicked but if it was 'Whats a worse expierience' it would be giving birth. Im pretty sure every woman would prefer to feel a kick in the balls and boom baby is born over the real expierence.

    I'm a female and I agree with the guys only because the facts are there. I have three kids all c-section so I've never actually felt a contraction either. That's why I had the c-sections in the first place. My bf yells when I "ball tap" him *evil* lol. Even if it's softly. My son has hit him accidentally a few times and he stays hurting for hours. I think c-sections are super easy barely hurt for a few days. I guess I am neutral in this conversation since I am a woman but have never given birth. Guys usually try to act tough but when it comes to their balls no acting can hide that pain. I imagine child birth is awful also but being that there is no one who has felt both I would go by the facts.

    Let's eliminate some of these arguments; to all men trying to use the 9000 del (unit of pain) excuse; it's a false measurement- it was just made up. That's why when you go into a nurses office, they ask you what hurts on a scale to 1-10. Secondly, many, MANY woman die during and after childbirth- even if it's not from just "giving birth," whatever that means, there are many people who have died from different complications that occur because of childbirth. Someone compared bowel movement to childbirth- completely different organs and system, sorry. The most I can say to people that say, "the quick pain hurts more! Wahh!" I imagine this, I'd rather get a shot than have the needle slowly sliding into my arm and then staying there and then getting bigger and bigger (the giving birth.) People say that girls who get pregnant are ****** or have choices- umm yeah, so did the guys. No one makes you skateboard, have a big dog. I'm guessing some of the arguments are going to be like, "What, we can't enjoy life now?" Well, we enjoy our life to- including kids. Yeah, and don't call the lady a ***** if she gets pregnant, not everyone is 16 and pregnant. My mother was 30 when she gave birth to me, and guess what- it still hurt. Did the guys forgot that girls don't get pregnant on their own, but let's not address that. The nerves argument guy that won't let this argument die- prove it, cite a good reliable source and while you're at it prove how many girls have- because you know it's not just the vagina that has nerves right? We have nerve endings in our uterus as well. Am I saying anyone wins? No, I personally think the long pain of childbirth would hurt more. I call tie.

    There are more nerve endings in the testicles than there are in the vagina (overall, but of the nerves that are there, most of them are in the lower 1/3 of the vagina, the location of stretching and contractions), however, there are the same number of nerve endings in the penis as there are in the clitoris (the most nerve endings in the entire body at around 8,000 depending on the person). The clitoris is much smaller than the penis, so more concentrated area of pain. Then, the cervix also has several hundred nerve endings, which are subjected to dilation. All in all, as a total reproductive unit, there are more nerve endings in the female system than in the male system (thus allowing for more pain because women have more parts down there). In response to the guy that keeps talking about men dying from getting kicked in the testicles, you're right, there are quite a few cases on men dying after such an assault, but cause of death is shock, or internal bleeding. The male reproductive system was not meant to be kicked, so the body goes into shock, this doesn't happen when women give birth because the female body is meant to carry children (lucky for you otherwise you wouldn't be here and you would never have children of your own). There are major arteries that go to both the male and female pelvic area, if you were to sever an artery at the vagina, the woman would die just the same as a man with a severed artery at the penis. Pain is subjective, and no sex can know the pain of the other sex. Men, be glad you don't have to push, and ladies, be glad your sensitive lady parts are protected by the pelvic bone if you ever get kicked down there.

    Getting kicked in the testicles hurt 4 (point something) more times than giving birth. But it's just the fact that giving birth can take up to 24 hours, and the pain for getting kicked in the testicles goes completely away after 5 to 10 minutes.

    so after reading through the entire article, and analyzing each individual piece of evidence, or, in some cases, lack-there-of, getting kicked in the balls would be the winner of the most painful debate. This is for a few reasons.

    1. Men and Women have different types of nerves, so it is impossible, even after a sex change as brought up below, for a Woman to have the same pain severity as a Man

    2.
    a. the Vagina, Cervix, and Pelvis have all (been created, evolved, etc. *take your pick*) to expand in order to deliver the child. If the child had to force its way out of a rigid tube, that would be another story.

    b. the Scrotum and Testes are designed to let the Male know as quickly as possible that something has happened. They are not designed to take a beating. They are tender and require protection

    3. The amount of time that you experience the pain of birth vs. a solid hit to the Testes, contrary to popular belief, is often times far longer in the case of the Male's issue. This is taking into account that the AVERAGE childbirth is far shorter than the after effects of a solid hit in the Testes

    I hope I have brought a conclusion to this (seemingly) never-ending debate

    There's an Irish Rugby player whom had suffered a ruptured testicle and nut scrotum whilst continuing to play, mind you he had previously been a member of the Army but as to which you can imagine is considerably painful as well as the winding factor of being nut cracked.

    Now not to negate the sacrifice and let's be honest they ain't howling for the fun of it pain, the ladies go through but getting kicked in the balls registers at around 192 del on the so called pain scale per minute of pain now the average nut crack can last up to fifteen minutes that's rounded off to 3530 del for fifteen to 18 minutes lets say where as 57 del is the average amount of pain a woman feels during labour, regardless of the spent time of child birth obviously unless your seriously lucky or seriously unlucky child birth is not going to last fifteen minutes women experience more pain during child birth than men will ever know.

    If I'm in a room with a woman giving birth and I'm an unlucky b@st@rd to a point where I get nut cracked then I'll go down for fifteen minutes, but for the next 9 hours 45 minutes - 2 days 21 hours and 54 minutes I'll be there going for the words **** me shes gonna feel that in the morning but mightily strong willed enough not to **** with.

    So whilst to a point getting kicked in the goolies is more painful than four minutes of child birth,
    Child Birth is more physically and mentally gruelling than my drill instructor and the 8 mile hike with full compliment and gear that we had to do in under 5 hours.

    Neither is as painful as the other and neither should be in same category, besides a woman goes down just the same when she is kicked in the groin I have seen it done, and the bloke who did it wasn't standing for long.

    Some women when giving birth can be in labour for more than 24 hours suffering from the same pain over and over and over, guys get kicked in the balls once, women have lots of contractions when in labour, over and over and over. Childbirth hurts more, without a doubt because we have the same pain over and over for at least 5 or so hours.

    Human body can bear only up to 45 del (unit) of pain. But at the time of giving birth, a woman feels up to 57 del of pain. This is similar to 20 bones getting crushed at a time.

    an average hit in the balls is above 9000 del unit of pain which is similar to giving birth to 160 babies & 3200 bones getting crushed at a time.

    Be more specific. People aren't answering the question COMPLETELY. At the exact moment of getting kicked in the balls and for the next couple minutes or so, it is more painful than any one moment throughout labor. That being said, labor is a more painful overall experience because of the length of the process. This info is only general, and does not apply to everyone because there are men who can take a kick and feel less pain than others. I'm saying to the average man, it will be more painful compared to the average woman, but not all.

    It a simple matter of science. It is physically impossible to experience pain with out the nerves to process it. Women do not possess a set of nerves that delivers the same levels of pain intensity during birth, that men have in their testicles. The pain intensity in the testicle, depending on the damage level, can send a man into convulsions and kill him.

    A man getting kicked in his testicles is the equivalent of giving birth to 160 children and breaking 3200 bones simultaneously.
    The human body can endure up to 45 del (units) of pain. When giving birth, women usually feel up to 57 del (units) of pain, while men will experience upwards of 9000 del (units) of pain.
    So, getting kicked in the testicles does hurt more than giving birth to a child.

    Del is an operator used in mathematics, in particular, in vector calculus, as a vector differential operator, usually represented by the nabla symbol ∇. When applied to a function defined on a one-dimensional domain, it denotes its standard derivative as defined in calculus. When applied to a field (a function defined on a multi-dimensional domain), del may denote the gradient (locally steepest slope) of a scalar field (or sometimes of a vector field, as in the Navier–Stokes equations), the divergence of a vector field, or the curl (rotation) of a vector field, depending on the way it is applied.

    Yes, giving birth has a good benefit. But actually, after a woman gives birth, a hormone is released in her body that makes a woman somewhat forget just how much it hurt to give birth. This is so a woman won't be completely against having another child. I'm not saying it hurts more, I'm saying your argument is invalid. I've never done either, so I have absolutely no idea.

    Getting kicked in the nads can actually be as painful as giving birth 300+ times, breaking every single bone in your body over 20 times and numerous other things AT THE SAME TIME. Now you try and tell me that giving birth is painful. And btw @JanIAm1031 If a guy was kicked in the nuts constantly for 10 hours, it'd be like giving birth over 1000 times and breaking every single bone in your body 200+ times. Now if you can give birth to a couple thousand babies without dying then I guess men are just crybaby's. @crowmir If I had a choice I'd rather give birth to 5 babies over getting kicked in the nuts as hard as the kicker can.
