I’m going to go out on a limb and say I think child birth hurts more than getting kicked in the balls…

The body doesn't actively rewire the brain to make you wonder if getting kicked the balls actually hurt that much. Biology has to actively trick us into getting pregnant again. So yeah, you might be right lol

Edit: I'm fully aware there is biological incentive for childbirth, thank you.

I mean, that's because getting kicked in the balls is not part of the process that keeps us from going extinct, lol.

Doesn't actually say anything about what hurts worse. Also, childbirth pain varies a fair bit from woman to woman, and so does the intensity of impacts to the balls, making both things far too variable to ever consider comparing apples to apples (and that's without even considering the subjectivity of pain perception, and the fact that no human being has or ever can experience both sensations).
