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.

What's weird, though, is that all those accusations are based on real experience: Men being absent or checked out during birth. Which sucks. Even though it's not the point of this screen cap.

I'd be interested to know how much it happens.

All the people it happened to would have reason to comment, but thay doesn't mean it happens all the time.

A post about men who are violently assaulted by their partners would also attract all the men that happened to. That doesn't mean it happens all the time

This isnt to say it doesn't happen often either. Its just that people.commenting on it after having the memory triggered by the nature of the post isnt really conclusive
