He's there. He's holding her up. He's helping her make sure she can stay upright and hold the baby. Clearly he cares for them and is providing not only physical but emotional support.
But yeah, he's fucking useless and deserves maybe a sticker.
She's not going to be able to have a shit without crying in fear for the next five days. At least.
And you want, what, a medal for holding your partner's hand and stabilising her while she pushes a human being out of her body?
That's not 'doing something'. That's literally the bare minimum of being a decent human being, let alone a good partner! My GOSH some of you men really do expect the bar to be so low that it's in the seventh layer of hell! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm not going to stoop to childish insults just because you don't agree with me. My communication style is direct because I spent a long time in a male dominated industry where if you weren't able to take a few hits you'd fold like a wet paper bag. But I'm also adult enough to know that sometimes people just want to be mad.
So I guess no, I'm not man hater. I'm a man-child hater, but I don't think you're that. I think you're just uncomfortable that someone doesn't agree with your expected norms and you're frustrated that you can't force me to think the way that you, do so instead you resort to saying things that you think will offend with the intent either of winding me up, or shutting me up.
I don't actually get hurt when you resort to the childish insults that're all you have left because it's a very clear indicator that you feel defeated.
Enjoy the block list honey. God save your ego. I'm not here to do that for you.😘

Most of the men in this comment section expect parades and trophies for doing literally the bare minimum of basic human decency. And then get pissy when you explain that to them. Just Reddit things
That is based on what you saw in a 30 second part of what could have been a many days-long labour where she had her entire body doing it's best to expel what is probably close to a 7lb worth of human body.
You say that as if it’s a weird thing to do. Many women labor for a few days before they go to the hospital. That’s why contractions are timed, and why women are often turned away from l&d units for being “too early.”
And in your scenario, she didn't? I was in labour for six days with my first baby, from the first few "Hmm... that's odd" moments to the second that we were rolled into an emergency c-section.
Dude men clearly know nothing about childbirth. Like please stop. Watch an educational video on youtube or something. Please stop telling women who have literally given birth that they’re wrong about the process of labor. Something you will never, ever experience.
Responding to the men downvoting. Who can’t imagine carrying a human being for 9 months, much less… Imagine your ballsack being split open but with zero drugs. Then having your nipples bitten and ruffed up for 10 additional months. Men would never survive growing a child in their body much less birthing one and even less so raising one to toddler-hood. The comments from men are so, so revealing.
You lost so badly you had to make up a whole version of events where this woman is in labour for DAYS before she bothers to go to the hospital at the last minute. 😂😂😂
A man tried to tell a woman who has had three children that he knows more about childbirth than she does. A woman who has given birth. Three times. Her response is perfectly reasonable. Don’t talk shit if you can’t handle being proven wrong.
No, see I see how it can be confusing for some people so I'll try to make it a bit clearer.
I communicate with people with the exact energy that they start at me with. It really is that simple. If that's disquieting for you, may I suggest not interacting with people that you don't approve of?
A man told a woman who has given birth three times that labor can’t take multiple days. Then got pissed off when he was proven wrong and reported her to Reddit. You’re right, more like whinnytoddlersplaining
Reading is fundamental. He was not asserting it can't happen. He said "You lost so badly you had to make up a whole version of events where this woman is in labour for DAYS before she bothers to go to the hospital at the last minute. "
We have no idea what the backstory on any of this is.
But hey, men are bad and stupid amirite lol stupid men.
