Low blows in women's MMA.

The clitoris has an incredible number of nerve endings in it (more than twice what the penis has), and most of it is internal; the part you can see is just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. If getting punched in the liver or kidney hurts, imagine if it felt ten times as much pain. That's roughly what getting kicked or kneed in the groin feels like for a woman.

Here's the clitoris, in yellow. As you can see, there's a whole lot more going on than the part that can extend from the body (the glans). I'd explain a bit more, but I'm afraid I might get dubbed.

Is it just me or does anyone else still see Fabers chin?
 
I wonder how painful it is compared a to getting hit in teh balls...
 
this thread shows how much experience a lot of sherdoggers have with women

female genitals are a lot more sensitive, why should it not hurt like hell?
 
i was nervous this thread would be trouble but it has been more mature than I expected..

Bwahaaaa. Raging ignorance typed by what seems to be 12 year old virgins is "more than you expected" on Sherdog?

Sadly, me too.

Well, to be fair, a testicle is actually something very much like kidney - an internal organ, but the one that hangs outside instead.


Lips and fingers also have shitload of nerve endings, and getting those crushed isn't quite as horribly debilitating as kick to teh balls, so there's clearly more factors in here, save simple nerves concentration.

That's actually a myth. A penis and a clitoris develop from the same tissue and have about the same amount of nerves. The studies that claim the penis has half of the nerve endings weren't actually accounting for the entire penis. Not to mention those studies neglect to factor in foreskin.

Personally I'm not a big believer in the P4P rankings

Too many variables
 
I've seen it a couple of times. There's one fight I remember in Invicta where it happened, and the crowd started to awkwardly giggle as if they didn't think a woman could be hurt from a low blow. Julie Kedzie then had to explain to viewers that it's sensitive down there and is painful for them to be hit there, too.

Obviously I don't know for sure but I'm guessing based on reactions it's about 1/4th as painful for women as it is for men.

But it's not the penis which usually hurts the most in a groin strike. It's the testes. And with men the organs are fully external and more exposed.
 
And they don't wear cups! Maybe Reebok can include it in their kit :)
