Search Results: pregnancy general questions

First of all, the obvious thing: Men in general are physically stronger, bigger and taller than women. This can help them defend themselves better, lift heavier things and protect someone.

Second, women have to deal with periods every month and men don't have to. Men don't lose blood, plus in a completely natural environment, a period is not beneficial, it can attract predators.

Women have to deal with pregnancy, now I agree that women carry a fetus in the womb for nine months and it can be very risky. A woman risks her life and body for a fetus. Plus, they have to bear the pain of childbirth, which is extremely painful. All of this also makes women extremely vulnerable. In a completely natural environment, a pregnant woman can't survive alone.

Almost everything in the world has been discovered, invented and made by men.
The devices you use - like mobile phones, TV, Air-Conditioner, washing machine, fridge, etc. are probably made by men.
The buildings we live in are made by men.
The roads, railway tracks, etc. are made by men.
The vehicles like cars, bikes, trucks, trains are made by men.
Trains, planes, rocket, helicopters, etc. are made by men.
Weapons like guns, tools like hammers, pliers, etc. are made by men.
I agree that women have done some great things as well but men have done so much more for the world. All those things show how intelligent men can be.

Now, I am not a women-hater or a misogynistic person, I am also a preacher of equality, but all of this makes me question myself.

I'm only 23 and have no intention of having children just yet, but I think it is because of the fact that I know that I want children one day that makes me scared that I won't be able to. I think fertility in general is something that is so often taken for granted and people just assume that they will just be able to become pregnant whenever they want to. I also have a few friends who don't want to have kids, and that's fine for them, but I have just always wanted it, and I feel like because I'm the one who does, I won't be able to (I know that is a pretty stupid way to think of course, but I think it anyway). I am scared of leaving it too late, and if I can help it, would at least like to be in a position where I am trying or close to trying by the time I am 30. I figure at least if I encounter problems than I have more time to try/sort it out.
I am a hypochondriac, so I tend to be a lot more aware of conditions and things that can go wrong with the body. Every time I have the occasional irregular period or if I feel like I have hair in a place other girls don't, I will look it up on the internet and find all sorts of conditions stating infertility as a symptom. I know adoption is always an option, but I have always wanted to experience pregnancy when I am older, and would somehow feel like a let down to my husband (even though no one should in that position).
I think the most frustrating thing about fertility is literally that you don't know until it happens. You could be in perfect reproductive health and struggle to conceive whilst another may be told that will never have children and naturally fall pregnant. Anyway, my question is, do you worry about this even though you're not ready to have kids yet?
