It seems like it’s always men who are very concerned about this. This fits with their general discomfort with all the natural processes of women’s bodies, not just childbirth.

It's not the natural processes that we are concerned with. It is the consequences of those processes. Ask any man.

I could, but I imagine that would tend to cause me to despise him, which is hardly the Christmas spirit.

But that aside, I think the idea that Jesus was not born naturally is theologically parlous, driven by the misogyny and biological ignorance of the writers. If Jesus did not have a natural human body, from His conception until His resurrection, and if His mother did not have a natural human body, then He is not fully man and fully God, but something else.
