Women Childbirth vs egg laying hens pain amounts Anonymous 332705[Reply]
The average egg laying hen suffers more than the average woman going through an unmedicated birth.
What’s the most painful thing that ever happened to you? Seriously take a moment and contemplate it, try, in as much detail as you can, to remember what it was like. Maybe, for a few of you it was childbirth, an experience which, when it takes place without anesthesia, is temporarily completely debilitating. Nothing other than the pain occupies the mind of the sufferer.
Perhaps it was getting a tattoo. Someone on Quora summarized the pain of getting a tattoo in the following way:
>They hurt.
>There are between one and 20 needles being poked through your skin hundreds of thousands of time in a single session. The number of needles will determine the type and intensity of pain. So expect it. The real question is how much will it hurt.
I’ve been quite lucky and never experienced any particularly severe pain. I can remember quite a few times I’ve had pretty intense pain, barely eating for two days, having a doctor press down on my infected finger until it popped when I was 8, having a very severe stomach ache, falling out of a treehouse (though remaining in the tree) and banging my chin on the side of it, but nothing has been that bad. I’d guess the worst experience of my life is a lot less painful than a wrist tattoo.
The most painful experience that most of us have ever had is classified as disabling pain. This is the sort of pain that’s bad enough that during it you can’t enjoy doing anything else, you can’t, for instance, enjoy a game of chess while giving birth, and that makes it impossible to focus on anything other than the pain. Examples of this kind of pain include a very painful fall, breaking a bone, burning yourself, giving birth, severe dog bites, getting a tattoo, kidney stones, and hemorrhoids.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NhCxCLZXYtA But eating wild animals is usually better than farmed animals. It’s really bad when humans breed billions of extra chickens into existence on hellish factory farms but wild fish exist regardless of humans actions and nature is extremely brutal so reducing wild fish populations may reduce the amount of wild fish living mostly bad lives. Most wild fish dont even reach adulthood.
Also farmed fish are kept in really bad conditions.
