A hypothetical debate on whether a man should be in the delivery room with his wife or visit his closest buddy who was shot and killed broke out on X. There were arguments on both sides.
When we asked males what they would pick, these are the answers we got:

“If my wife is in labour at the hospital, it means there are people with her. If my friend has no one with him, I’ll have to go see him. I’m sure my wife would understand. But if both are in the hospital and have people with them, I’m definitely going to see my wife.”

“Under normal circumstances, that would be a serious “double tragedy.” However, the choice is clear: my wife. Period.”

“My best friend and my wife can’t be compared for any reason. Family is family, and nothing comes above that. So, I have to be with my wife when she’s in labour.”

“People often act without thinking things through; it’s called a lack of second-order thinking. Going to see my friend when my wife is in labour is unwise, unless my wife is giving birth outside the country and I am not there with her.”

“If someone you impregnated is having a baby in your geographic location, you go. Unless you’re the one who got shot.”

“My wife, of course, but I can delegate someone to check on my friend.”

Although some men might believe that giving birth is a simple process that doesn’t need their attendance, giving birth can be just as dangerous as receiving a gunshot wound.
We enquired with two physicians about their views on birthing as an urgent medical operation.

Here’s what one doctor said: “Yes, it’s an emergency because it fits the definition of an emergency, which is any situation that causes significant risk to a person’s life and long-term health.”

Since the operation is known in advance, another medical professional feels that it is not an emergency. He said,”Although pregnancy and labour are natural processes, we monitor them closely to ensure no emergency occurs.”

In summary, although friendships are powerful, marriages should have greater ties.
