This is embarrassing to men. You're suppose to walk those sorts of injuries.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 11 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Huh.

Horse girls are a bigger part of the horse riding population than I thought

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 44 minutes ago

My girlfriend's sister has a horse and I refuse to go near it. It's a two ton object being operated by a pea of a brain, he once got into a panic because his friend was behind him and he couldn't see him, so he ran around the field madly until he collided with a stationary tree. Oh and he's scared of blue wheelbarrows, just blue ones, wheelbarrows of any other colour or apparently acceptable.

He has already stood on her foot once.

agents acting on muscles and breathing? 🤔

[–] CLOTHESPlN@lemmy.world 2 points 49 minutes ago (1 children)

Allergic reaction to substances (agents) causing paralysis, asphyxiation, shock, etc

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 44 minutes ago (2 children)

why would this be a "female" reason to be admitted to the hospital?

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 2 points 7 minutes ago

Because guys are too fucking dumb to go to the hospital for something like not being able to breathe. I'm sure the statistic couldn't breathe, tried to walk it off, regained consciousness the next morning in a ditch next to road, just went home, is probably just as full of guys as the other statistic was full of girls.

The men just rub a little dirt in their lungs

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 2 hours ago

Imagine if pregnancy stuff had 1% blue.

[–] AgentOrangesicle@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (4 children)

Mental note: stop brandishing scimitar while motorcycling.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 1 points 16 minutes ago

The women have an unfair advantage. They get classes on the subject.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 2 hours ago

My refusal to step onto scaffolding has been affirmed by this data.

Look sometimes you've got to take some risks to follow the lead of Jaghatai Khan

[–] mapiki@discuss.online 10 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I feel like what's missing is the magnitude of each of these versus the others

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 9 points 2 hours ago

This is a goofy graph. We have all these admissions of 100% female due to being female. Where's the "had penis caught in chinese finger puzzle" admissions?

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 14 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Wow, motorcycles are dangerous, damn.

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah. That and pregnancy. Don't even get me started on riding a motorcycle while pregnant. Might as well just ride that bike down to the morgue.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago

Okay but what if I turned a coffin into a motorcycle? Does the bad luck even out or am I just taunting Death?

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 hours ago

less the bicycles, unless I read the numbers incorrectly because I couldn't be bothered to spend longer

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 11 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

I thought there’d be more “remove foreign object from up bum”.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Are those "prophylactic surgery"?

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 hours ago

That might be unisex.

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 1 points 2 hours ago

The full data set (easily found on leobenedictus.substack.com) includes "Foreign body entering into or through eye or natural orifice". It's pretty evenly split, only leaning towards men by a few percentage points

[–] pHr34kY@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Who are the 1.7% of males needing OB/GYN?

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 5 points 2 hours ago

The full title of that entry is actually "Obstetric and gynaecological devices associated with adverse incidents", so maybe some of the men are actually the OB/GYN themselves that are getting injured in the course of their work? The raw number is only 19 cases, so I could see that being plausible

Alternatively, with so few cases, could it be intersex people who are still categorised as male under whatever criteria this is using? 1.7% seems a touch high for that, but maybe things go wrong more often for said intersex people

Edit: wait, 90 of the cases are 0-year-olds. I'm definitely going with injuries to babies during difficult births / C-sections / similar

[–] leriotdelac@lemmy.zip 13 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Because men cannot give birth, they engage in other types of high-risk activities, such as riding a motorcycle.

Seriously though, what's a procreative management?

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 7 hours ago (2 children)
[–] AgentOrangesicle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Don't mix those up with IED's. Believe me.

[–] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 1 points 47 minutes ago

Probably hurts about the same.
