Disclaimer: I have no professional knowledge in this field. Everything I know about it, which is almost nothing, is either from reading cracked.com in the good old days or from witnessing my wife be pregnant and birth a baby.
That said, from my understanding, the issue is less the womb and more the pelvis.

This theory is called the, “obstetrical dilemma,” and it’s been mostly debunked.
That’s what I get for sourcing my knowledge from Cracked, I suppose. Thank you for the update.
No problem. And, to be fair, this study is only 8 years old, so it’s very possible Cracked was citing the prevailing scientific theory at the time.
