It’s nice having a topic to take our minds off how awful TRA can be. To answer the question in the future I’d like to hopefully have a family . I’m in my mid twenties and still feel I’m way too young for it even though technically I’m not lol. I want to live life more I guess like travel more, find the right woman and advance in my career. No way would I give birth though or expect any partner to do so as it sounds like a horrific experience. Adopting would be the way to go for me.

SAME I'm so happy I found someone that feels me. I hate "pregnancy", it makes me nauseous when I even think about it. The periods I have are enough, they make me downright miserable, last a full seven days, I bleed heavily, my cramps are constant and so severe they make me vomit. I literally can not walk properly even with pain relievers the first three days of my periods because the pain goes to my legs.

Going through that pain every month has made me realize that "nope, "pregnancy" is a no no, a big no". It's a horrific experience, never will I ever want to go through it.

Lmao I relate to your response so much. In my early 20s and feel the same way about feeling too young for it, even though I know former classmates from high school who have little kids already...

Right?! I hear women talk about "the miracle of childbirth" like it's some kind of religious experience, and while yes, the fact that women can produce life is cool, that doesn't detract from the fact that giving birth can be a horrifyingly traumatic experience...
