As someone who has passed a kidney stone (which can develop from dehydration and often is compared to birthing pains), I heartily agree.
As part of my local union's dress code, we are always required to pants on work calls. When it's hot out, many people complain about this part of the code, but FWIW, beyond preventing minor injuries, wearing pants can also slow dehydration (clothes absorb the sweat and keep you cooler longer).
