Girls, Are you sometimes dramatic about how much pain you’re in?

[Anonymous]

We were playing soccer and the ball hit her in the crotch and she dropped to the ground holding her crotch.

It wasn't THAT hard either.

[laraWM]

Because it hurts, you never know how you'll react until you're hurt.
Your question is quite ironic when you know soccer is probably the sport where professional male players overreact the most

[Asker]

Hah well that is to try to get a penalty against the other team! This was in practice so that wasn’t the reason she did it.

I guess I’m just used to see guys tough out injuries like that

[laraWM]

Injuries like that? You mean when ball hits the crotch? Because from what I've seen, it is really common guys drop to the ground after it happens

[Asker]

you've seen that in Soccer? It's pretty rare that happens when I'm playing. I still feel like there's an expectation in sports to tough it out

[laraWM]

Yes it sometimes happens.
It is maybe more a guy thing to look tough but I'd say that kind of pain is really hard to handle and tough out for guys

[Asker]

I think thats the difference between guys and girls in sports, guys always try to tough it out

[laraWM]

Maybe you try

[Asker]

what do u mean? I play soccer all the time and am always toughing it out

[laraWM]

Good for you. Some people have lower pain tolerance

[Asker]

Don’t you think guys handle those hits better? I’m pretty muscular

[laraWM]

I think it is quite the same

[Asker]

Really? You think so even with a muscular guy? I'm pretty strong and lift weights a lot

[laraWM]

Not sure it helps

[Asker]

but i mean dont girls see muscular guys and think they are tougher? especially when you see us flexing and stuff

[laraWM]

Of course but it doesn't mean you can't feel pain

[Asker]

Yeah but we don't want girls think our manliest area is vulnerable you know? we want y'all to think were tough

[laraWM]

Don't worry, it is common knowledge that a kick to that area hurts a lot

[Asker]

Yeah but its our manliest area!

I mean, you can’t really feel somebody else’s pain so you can’t determine if she was faking it or not. Being hit in the crotch for us women does hurt sometimes. I went snowboarding once and fell completely on my crotch and that shit hurt so badly

[Asker]

Don’t you think kinda dramatic for her to be holding her crotch like that in the middle of the game though?

[kyleelyn199723]

No it is not, it’s a reaction to something hurting. If you are playing a sport, you should probably be a little more understanding

[Asker]

I guess as a guy, we always try to act tough and take injuries like a man, so it’s weird seeing her react like that in a coed sport

[kyleelyn199723]

Have you ever watched hockey? My boyfriend does hockey and none of them try to act tough when it comes to injuries lol

[Asker]

Have you seen one of them get hit in the crotch? We take those shots better than girls do

[kyleelyn199723]

I’ve seen all types of injuries lol

[kyleelyn199723]

My boyfriend getting hit in the wrist, etc

[Asker]

Do you think guys takes hit in the crotch pretty manly compared to girls?

[Anonymous]

She literally got hit in the crotch. Of course she’s gonna be on the ground for a while, what did you expect?

[Asker]

But it wasn’t even that hard, and in sports that you’re supposed to take things like a man

[Opinion Owner]

But her groin is the weakest part of her body. That’s like getting mad at someone for crying after being poked in the eyes. I’ve literally seen girls and grown women shit themselves, puke, piss themselves, and even pass out from being hit in the crotch, and most of those women were athletes or martial artists. That girl dropping and holding her crotch is a given when it comes to blunt trauma in that area. It doesn’t matter how strong the woman is, a hit to the crotch will bring her down.

[Asker]

I guess I’m just used to seeing guys handle it better

[Opinion Owner]

Well getting hit in the nuts honestly might not be as bad as getting hit in the vulva. Nobody can answer that for certain. All I know is that I’ve seen literal children take down grown women who are trained fighters just by punching them in the crotch. It also becomes almost impossible to hold all of your bodily functions in after a good hit to the vulva as in my experience it tends to upset the stomach/bowels, so your focus is taken off of trying to stand up and look tough. Not much is at stake for a woman because we’re allowed to look vulnerable in a way that men just aren’t. I’m also fairly certain that a kick to the vulva upsets the bowels much more than a kick to the nuts so you don’t have to worry about those less glamorous symptoms as much as we do.

No. It fucking hurts alright. It's a bone

[Asker]

But Don’t you think kinda dramatic for her to be holding her crotch like that in the middle of the game though?

[Opinion Owner]

It's not dramatic. Whenever i used to get hit there by a table, i used to just find my way to someplace quiet and squeal in pain. Everyone has different ways of showing pain

[Asker]

I guess as a guy, we always try to act tough and take injuries like a man, so it’s weird seeing her react like that in a coed sport

[Opinion Owner]

Why you copy pasting

[Asker]

I’m trying to understand why girls are okay reacting like that in a sports game, Guys don’t do that

[Opinion Owner]

Guys do hold their balls when it gets hit

[Asker]

Not in the middle of a sports game!

[Opinion Owner]

Ask her

[Asker]

I did give her a hard time and told her to man up!

[Opinion Owner]

Why you bothered so much.
Let she do whatever

[Asker]

It just seems like girls over exaggerate how much that hurts, like guys take it like a man, girls are babies about it
