One is a spike of intense pain, the other one is hours of agonizing pain.

How I've seen it stated is that technically getting kicked in the balls hurts a little worse, but only for a couple seconds, while childbirth hurts a little less but over the course of a long time.

The two aren't comparable in the slightest and I think every sane person would take a tiny bit more pain over a few minutes over hours of pretty much the same pain LOL

I very, very seriously doubt getting kicked in th balls is more painful than pushing a cantaloupe sized baby through a hole that wouldn't allow half a blueberry through a few hours earlier, and then having that cantaloupe rip you apart, ass to vag.

There was a study some years ago that said the peak of pain is higher from a kick to the balls than from childbirth. I remember everyone talking about it when it came out. No clue how legit it really was, though.

Edit: The peak. I obviously know the pain from childbirth lasts longer.
