If you think that's bad, wait until you find out about the forms Greek gods took when they decided to seduce mortal women.

The constellation Cygnus commemorates the time when Zeus took the form of a swan to seduce Queen Leda. The other forms he took in order to seduce mortal women include a bull, an eagle and a satyr. And they weren't the worst...

Having kept ducks and geese, I can only imagine the tackle a swan has (I have to say that girly ducks always walk away with a strange gait not sure if it's a smile on their face!!!)

"To play it safe is not to play at all."

Mmm, knowing the Greeks there was probably and Aardvark or a Porcupine as well.

Trust me, I'm a doctor.

Not to mention a golden fucking shower, Zeus, you dirty, dirty bastard.

I voted childbirth as I have heard this is one of the most painful things to go through.

As for the "manly" ones, yup getting kicked in the privates hurts. That's nothing when compared to kidney stones. I had them twice and hope none of you ever have to go through this ordeal. The doc gave me Vicadin for the pain, but it didn't do diddly squat. Hands down, kidney stones are the worst pain I've ever had.

I had a stomach cramp yestterday that just wouldn't go. That hurt... and women go through it on a monthly basis?... Respect!

Aren't the Asgard supposedly technologically superior?

Yeah but you have to take into account that is has been clinically proven that women do not feel pain as men do, we get indigestion and it's a killer, they get an arm taken off in a bizzar shopping accident and they take an asprin and go out on the piss that night.

Trust me, I'm a doctor.

FA, I've always hoped that one was a mistranslation. Just conider the mechanics of it

Still, a society which doesn't bat an eyelid when a woman says that she has been seduced by a swan and lain two eggs is capable of anything.

I'd rather not!

men are, you are quite right, generaly wimpy when it comes to pain Pete- i think its a case of what your used to...you get used to being bent over double once a month (i know what your all thinking-dont be perves!) so you expect it and you live with it. If you regularly get hit/kickd/pinched/bitten youd get used to most of that too

(ps-kidney stones REALLY hurt too, i have been fortunate to never suffer tehm myself)

we are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars

I know schoolchildren are more unruly these days, but I didn't think being a teacher was THAT bad!

depends where you work ...they dont mean it.

Reminds me of a boy who hit a teacher when I was at school. One of the teachers hit him in return. It wasn't quite so funny then.

Waiting for this poll to be changed...
