I thought this was a good picture to show how the stem is attatched to the pumpkin. It explains why you can cut the stem open along its length when you have a stem split before it tears into the pumpkin flesh. There's a lot of pumpkin meat under the stem so if you get to a stem split in time you can prevent damage to the pumpkin.
