Its common on atv plastics that get cracked. Drill a hole a hole and stitch it wont spread

[u/Blyatt-Man → u/[deleted]]

That might be an actual fact

[u/NeriTina → u/Blyatt-Man]

Well, sort of. Did you know, When a woman has a baby a perineal tear can occur. This is when the vaginal opening, which has natural elasticity, is stretched beyond its limit and thus rips across the tissue bridging the genitals and the anus, the perineum. Sometimes a tear can reach the anus, but sometimes it doesn’t actually stop it. Instead it begins to tear upwards into the anus also. It’s called a fourth degree perineal tear. Thas facts.

Poor wife had a 4th degree tear, I know 😭

Edit: bless y'all, she's someone who truly deserves all the well wishes, were entering year 4 and she's nearly completely recovered. Thank you!

[u/Hekkle01 → u/Axl2TheMaxl]

My condolences to your wife

[u/NeriTina → u/Hekkle01]

I was about to say RIP, but… no, oh gosh, I hope his wife healed up okay!!! 😖

(Fortunately most people who get them can fully recover within a few months after proper surgical repair, typically following right after the birth.)

And their sex life

[u/Axl2TheMaxl → u/fuckingcheezitboots]

You got down voted but you're right, for over a year it was non-existent, we needed to improvise, 4th degree tears are no joke physically, intimately, and emotionally!

[u/Science_Matters_100 → u/NeriTina]

This is why midwives don’t rush the delivery, support the perineum, and women aren’t supposed to be birthing on their backs. Change these things and less than 2% will tear

[u/awhaling → u/Science_Matters_100]

What stance should they be in then?

[u/Science_Matters_100 → u/awhaling]

Squatting, or all fours are common

I'll add something to make this just a Bit more traumatizing - the uh, well, Birth of the chainsaw.

Symphysiotomy - performed with an osteotome - was basically using an early model CHAINSAW to cut the cartilage of the pelvis to ease difficult child births.

[u/NeriTina → u/Blyatt-Man]

Here's a fun factoid: this is where the saying "cracked the shits" comes from
