Man Experiences The Pain Of Childbirth, Responds Accordingly

In a country where most men aren't even present for the birth of their children, one hospital is giving fathers-to-be a chance to really experience childbirth.

The Chinese facility places electrodes on the willing men and passes an electrical current into the abdomen.

One participant said: "It felt like my heart and lungs were being ripped apart."

Hi Cass and Eddie

That may well be the case, I doubt it is a foolproof test.

There is another article, which more information:

For the simulations, pads attached to a device are placed above the abdomen, giving electric shocks that induce pain. The test subjects writhe in agony for up to five minutes as a nurse gradually raises the intensity on a scale of one to 10. Song Siling, who is trying for a baby with his girlfriend, shut his eyes and grimaced as the needle on the electrode monitor inched forward with a beep.

“It felt like my heart and lungs were being ripped apart,” said Song, who made it to level seven before frantically waving to the nurse to turn off the system. Others dropped out within minutes when they could not take the pain.

Despite their obvious discomfort, the on-duty nurse said the simulations could never match the torment of actual childbirth.

“Still, if men can experience this pain, then they’ll be more loving and caring to their wives,” said Lou Dezhu.

I was in hospital last year with Kidney Stones, a nurse said she had four children and had Kidney Stones. She said she would rather give birth than have a stone trying to get out. I also have gall stones which are no picnic either!!

AND try having the head crown then go back up 5 times before the asshats figure out that the cord is wrapped around the poor babe's neck.

Most men wonder ---if it's so painful, why do women keep having several?

Because it's a pain you associate with joy and complete awe.
There's nothing like it.
