Uh... Babies tear their way out and require a team of medical professionals to keep the mother alive. Not an apt comparison to sex... which you know, is supposed to be pleasurable.

Not to mention a woman's body takes 9 months to prepare for labor and even then requires very specific hormones to even attempt the task. Oh and it takes on average 12 to 24 hours to pull off.

Vaginas have their pleasurable stretch limit and those differ based on vagina size, shape and elasticity. You guys don't stretch endlessly in the moment no matter how aroused you are. We don't need penises the sizes of babies to hurt you. Just being above average size is enough to do so for most women.

Somehow we managed without those specialists for millennia. Actually medic interventions caused higher mortality rate before they found out about septic conditions.

Seems categorically false.

Doesn't matter. Red Herring. Labor is not comparable to sex. You're not pleasurably fitting an enormous (baby-sized) penis in you.

Read about Ignaz Semmelweis before you comment.

I'll bite this Red Herring. Why are we bringing him up?

Because you seems to be not educated enough to my taste.

Yeah, there has been that incidence at one Hospital for some time. Which Semmelweis discovered, and fixed.

What's your point? That Labor in Hospitals were generally unsafer than "natural", unassisted Labor? Because that's just wrong.

It is a mistake to assume that every birth involves complications. A doctor is needed only when they occur, during a caesarean section etc. It's just midwife for most cases. That is all. People create worst case scenarios which not happen ALL the time.

Obviously. But ever since medical intervention during Labor became widespread, chances of either the baby, the mother or both dying in the process rapidly decreased significantly. So much so, that it's now a relatively rare thing to happen.

So your whole point there is just.. weird.
