What he really thinks about when he's looking "down there!"

In this installment of Dadlogic, "Moment of Truth" host Mark L. Walberg, KIIS-FM host JoJo Wright, retired NFL player Femi Ayanbadejo and Jeff Sebelia of "Project Runway"' tell us what they were really thinking in the delivery room. What they've got to say is eye-opening.

Do you agree with what they had to say? Watch for more Dadlogic, coming soon.

yeah I would definitely agree with those guys and I’m a woman who just gave birth to my son. It certainly did smell evil so yeah it was at the time the “evil end”. People in America need to stop being so sensitive. In reality, it was gross even from my point of view. It was a beautiful yet disgusting process

Being a former nurse and having 3 beautiful children with my wife now I will tell you I made it a point to avoid looking down there [yes she knows that] because there are just some things that get etched into your memory after seeing them. It wasn’t my job to play catch this time so I just waited, cut the cord, then held the precious little bundles after they were cleaned up.

You always hear men commenting on the gross aspects (yes there are many gross aspects)of delivery so I’m glad to hear them comment on the good parts for a change.

I delivered my granddaughter with the help of a midwife, while my son-in-law helped keep my daughter focused. All natural, no drugs, and the baby was 9 pounds 15 ounces. Absolutely incredible experience. This was her fourth baby and we only missed the birth of one by five minutes. I don’t remember anything ‘smelly’ or nasty at all, just a beautiful baby girl with healthy lungs.

Great piece Momlogic, we just gave it a Tweet! We interviewed many experienced fathers when creating The GoodFather line for expecting dads and heard many positive delivery stories like this from our new fathers as well. Thanks again for including dads in Momlogic! ~ Dr.MOZ

My first daughter was born via emergency c-section. My husband accidentally caught a glimpse behind the surgical curtain on his way to the table where they placed our daughter. The surgeon was sewing up my uterus. Husband quipped “At least we don’t have to take THAT home. It looks like a pot roast!” The surgeon then popped it back in to me & hubby screached like Homer Simpson. Another accidental glimpse following the VBAC birth of our second daughter. He did a funny hopping “dance” while saying “Ew! Ew! It looks like someone dumped a plate of lasagna on your lap!” Odd man.

It doesn’t say much for the maturity of these dads. Smelly? Sex is smelly, too, but they don’t seem to mind that. Sorry, guys, but that’s just a few steps beyond the body wash commercials.

What’s wrong with saying it stinks? Of course it does. It doesn’t take away from the miracle you witness.

Exactly, “Mom of one, auntie of 4”, there’s nothing wrong with saying that it stinks. Many people don’t even know about details such as that. It’s so cute how the guys are so passionate about their participation.

THe whole process is like a scene out of the movie alien. It is a miracle, but it is disgusting.

You know, women have to go through this all the pain, it wouldnt kill a man to actually look past the smell and blood, and see its actually a beautiful thing.

Is it odd that I don’t remember anything smelly? I remember no smells whatsoever?
