But it hurts!

Women don’t have a higher pain threshold than men:
It has always been assumed that women’s bodies give them a higher pain threshold than men, to help them cope with the agony of childbirth.
But a study suggests the opposite is true.
Women generally experience more recurrent pain, more severe pain and longer lasting pain than men.
I guess [...]
