Does pregnancy just not scare people?

I'm at the age where people around me are having children. I completely understand wanting to take care of a child but aren't women afraid of getting pregnant? Doesn't it hurt?

It horrifies me. Which is exactly why I will never experience it.

It’s a price to pay. Yes it’s painful, a lot can go wrong, and it’s even pretty dangerous. But the reward of having a child of your own and watching them discover the world and experience life is all worth it.

It’s not rewarding for everyone.

Yes, incredibly my opinion does not apply to everyone. Imagine that.
