Swearing reduces pain.

and

Obviously, I don’t have kids, but could foul language not replace the need for an epidural?
As a Man who has no children either, I would not be too impressed if I went into Hospital for a Major Operation and, instead of anaesthetic, I was given the “Oxford Press Guide to Swearing” instead.
It makes me wonder why we, the Taxpayers, cough up for such pointless research.
