In the original audio of the video the pregnant woman slaps the husband after he says this. It's a joke about how during labor there's alot of high emotions and stress that the mother to be is experiencing and how such a situation can be awkward for the nurses in the room to be involved in.

Whomp whomp. Men act like giving birth is easy and they are usually stupid enough to say something like this. This is something you say to the new guy on your raid squad, Not what you say to the woman risking her life to deliver your spawn.

I don’t think anyone is under the impression that childbirth is easy. It’s harder than anything I expect to do in my life. I think most men might say something like this because they want to find some way to be supportive and helpful, and don’t know how else to do that in the moment.
