this is ridiculous....you need to be brave to have a baby, i'd like to see any guy that disagree's with this try....not that you can....but still

 

[Susperia]

Well... you don't necessarily need to be brave anymore. We have drugs and epidurals and Pitocins and C-sections and DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS to take care of any pain or whatever... But natural vaginal childbirth---- That is probably the heaviest thing. Ever.

 

[Susperia]

Fighting is not natural?? Are you fucking kidding?

Also---you're looking at this from a male's perspective. It is impossible for you to fear childbirth because you have nothing to A) compare it with and B) have no connection to it because it will never happen to you.

Lastly--- In every childbirth there is ALWAYS risk of death. That is why we decided to give babies in hospitals (duh... ). More women die in childbirth than I think you realize-----And rates are rising in the US due to our obstetritians increasingly absurd behaviors and tendencies towards unnecessary surgeries.


edit: Back in the times of the Vikings, death during childbirth was a very REAL fear. It was in every culture at that time. Do some research.

Let's not blow this out of proportion here. This isn't some unprecedented level of bravery. There have only been billions of women throughout history who have endured childbirth.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

You gals should try passing a kidney stone! Now that's brave!

 

[Susperia]

Kidney stones have been compared to childbirth no?

kil: And billions of men haven't died while fighting??

Dodens: As I said above. EVERY childbirth entails risk of death. Ask ANY obstetritian or midwife.

At least you don't have to take care of it afterwards

 

[Susperia]

So just because going into battle there is slightly more risk of death than childbirth that childbirth should not be seen as brave??

What is your fucking point?

He's not disputing this. He is saying that one is far, far more likely to die in battle than in childbirth, so to compare the two is foolish.

 

[Pessimism]

They probably consider it so with the high amount of pain that is usually involved when birthing a child. Not being afraid to have your *whistle* torn in three has got to give you some merit in the halls up high.

It's the only thing I can think of.

 

[Susperia]

^But at that time it WASNT'!! THAT'S MY WHOLE POINT.

Women frequently died while giving birth.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

Hey, I'm not some irresponsible niggah from the hood!

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Haha "slightly." WTF?

Well, Nec's first question wasn't comparing, he said there was absolutely nothing brave about childbirth. Then he went to say "Oh, well, ok it's brave but not AS brave, oh! Stump me now!"

If you look at his posts on page 5, it's a completely different argument than his first post on page 6.

At no point in this thread have I said anything about the bravery involved with going to war. I was just referring to the posts in which childbirth seemed to be described as requiring near absolute bravery.

 

[Susperia]

No-----Childbirth does not REQUIRE bravery, however the woman who SHOWS absolute bravery during it does fucking deserve a high fucking seat. GOD DAMNIT YOU BOYS!!!

 

[Evil?]

That scarification is foul, and shows exactly how far some turds will go to feel "special" and "unique".

Ok, I know this is a few pages late, but I fucking hate this attitude. Why can't someone have body work done outside the norm, without being labeled as having some sort of social issues?

 

[ThisIsACoolName]

Who gives a shit if breeding sacks die after child birth? They're too fat and sweaty to fuck after pregnancy, anyway. No skin off my back.

 

[Valerie]

Bravery in child birth and bravery in warfare might as well be two different words, which is what I'm arguing. In my first comment I was insinuating that bravery in so far as it is considered in warfare is not applicable to child birth.

I would appreciate if you would stop making assumptions about my arguments and attacking me before you allow me to lay out my argument.

kthx

Maybe you should have organized your argument in the first place, instead of waiting for someone to point out your mistakes, dumbass.

Had I believed they did it out of an authentic artistic reason, I wouldn't care, but I don't believe that for a second. I'll bet a nut that in the vast majority of cases, it is nothing but attention-seeking of the worst sort.
