When thinking about the differences between men and women, the first thing that comes to mind is our reproductive organs and the feelings we experience because of them. No no. Not talking about anything sexual here. There are certain things I've always been curious about, but will never truly understand, e.g. the pain a guy feels when he gets kicked in the crotch. And I'm sure there are guys out there who are curious as to how a women's menstrual cramps feel. I asked a friend of mine if he knows how that might feel. (He has a sister and fiancee so I thought that they would have shared some info with him...) His response was, "Cramps? Isn't it just like a cramp you get when you swim right after you eat?" No no no no... That's nothing compared to real menstrual cramps.
So the purpose of this entry is to try to see which is more painful? Getting kicked in the crotch? Or bad menstrual cramps? The only way to determine this is to give a description. I'll go first...
"Menstrual cramps. It feels like someone grabbed my ovaries, tubes, and uterus and squeezed and twisted them really really hard. And while they're squeezing and twisting, a thousand needles are thrust into my organs. The pain is incredible. It sears through my abdomen, my back, my thighs, my knees, through my arms, and into my head. It's gotten so bad that I was unable to walk and speak."
The friend I was speaking of earlier briefly described the feeling of getting kicked in the crotch. He said it feels like every single nerve ending in your entire body is surging with pain. You can feel it through your entire body. But it doesn't last too long.
Okay. Your turn! How does it feel for you?? The person with the best description wins a trip for two to the beautiful oil fields of Nigeria! Just kidding. That would be a horrible and depressing vacation, but that's another story. Okay, any takers?

With regards to getting drilled in the family jewels...the pain is enough to make men strong enough to pull trucks with a rope double over and cry like a sissy. Strong enough so that you don't even really have to hit them. Just feint a move in their general direction, and you will see most sane men wince and turn away, or instinctively drop both hands to protectively criss-cross in front of them. Strong enough so that when you even SEE someone in movies or tv getting kicked there it makes you wince. That even just hearing about it makes you cringe. That's how bad it hurts. You hit them flush and they will HURT. But as Eddie Murphy said in Raw, "you can just GRAZE" them and it'll still hurt. Sucks the wind right out of you.
As for being curious for how menstrual cramps feel...no thanks. Description given will suffice.
I think the whole cramps thing is nasty. As a man with a sister, a mother, and a wife, cramps are the worst. The worst part of the cramps are the accompanying mood swings. Couches have known to be stained due to the nastiness. Worse yet, it comes every month. But getting grazed in the jewels is pretty rough. Its a huge weakness. Its like every man's kryptonite. But as a guy, i would say the cramps are worse cuz it always comes every month.
However, how bout this one. Next, lets discuss passing a stone or giving birth.
