That's not true. You can't say 90% because you don't know. If by harmless you mean resulting in complications, then neither does giving birth. You ARE trying to compare the two by saying giving birth is worse. It is a bad argument because men don't know what they're talking about and neither do you. There's no way for you to gain an advantage because regardless of giving birth being a choice (situationally; not as a gender) and that doctors encourage women to take painkillers (kick-in-nuts is too spontaneous for someone to say "Here take these"), neither side knows what they're talking about. Also, the thing about dragging a woman through the common, YOU are the one pointing out she's a woman. As long as he would've done the same thing to a man (he probably would've done worse) you should have no problem with it.
