I am of the age to have kids, some of my friends have them, but I have mixed feelings about it, just wondering about other people’s experiences.

    I have no idea why why any woman would want to get pregnant. It looks like an absolute terrible experience all around, and that’s not even accounting for the safety risks and the long term health reprocustions.

      Some women say they enjoy it which I cannot really fathom. I did not care for it. As for why the woman would want to get pregnant though… I mean that’s about having a kid, not about being pregnant, isn’t it?

      And also not to be crass, but haven’t you ever had sex that’s so good in that moment you and your body genuinely want to get pregnant?

        Let me rephrase, then:

        I’m surprised that any woman would want something enough that they’d be willing to endure pregnancy.
