That’s only when it’s extra or unnecessary stitches. If you’re unlucky enough to tear or need an episiotomy, trust me, you’ll want the normal stitches.

Only one stitch is called that, it's a stitch past the tear where it would have been naturally open. The stitches putting things right where there was tearing are a part of normal health care.

My first baby had a very large head. I had an episiotomy, and stitches to repair it (nothing extra). Everything went well.

Was this ever a real thing or just a joke?

It was - and is - a very real thing.

Is it super painful or something, why is it so offensive? If I was getting stitches and the doctor said adding another would improve my wife's sexual experience, I'd be like 'lets do it'.

It causes the woman tremendous pain during intercourse. Many women who have had this done to them are unable to have pleasurable sex ever again without additional reconstructive surgery.
