Girls, Why does it seem like women ex average for when they get hurt?

[Anonymous]

We were playing some coed lacrosse for fun and one of the girls got elbowed in the boob and had to stop playing and held her boob in pain for a few minutes

it didn’t seem like a very hard elbow either

[laraWM]

Because it hurts, you never know how you'll react until it happens to you.
I'm sure the elbow can be really painful anywhere

[Asker]

Maybe I guess it makes sense because girls aren’t as tough as guys

[laraWM]

Maybe and the elbow is much harder than the boob

[Asker]

But isn’t a boob mostly just fat?

[laraWM]

It is, most of the time a light blow won't hurt. But a hard blow is going to hurt like anywhere on the body

[Asker]

But in sports it’s kinda expected to play through the pain you know?

[laraWM]

You said you were playing for fun so I wouldn't be too strict with her. It happens people have to take a break in sports, it's not a big deal either

[Asker]

But we’re still competing out there, I’ve got elbowed in the chest and kept playing

[laraWM]

I don't know it was probably lighter blow and the boob can also hurt more. Maybe she didn't wear the appropriate bra

[Asker]

She was wearing a sports bra

[laraWM]

Then it was just a painful blow. It can happen to everyone

[Asker]

I got elbowed there the last game and didn’t complain at all!

[laraWM]

Be nice to people, I'm sure you wouldn't be happy if someone said the same for you

[SphynxUK]

She did that because it’s extremely painful.
Just like boys, when you get kicked between the legs.

[Asker]

But guys usually take hits way better than girls because we’re tougher
