    Everyone has it tough but I am ashamed to say that as a 6 ft man that drove myself in for my own appendectomy and once fought a gator with my own bare hands (it was small), I don’t think I can stand 1/4 of my life feeling like I’ve been gutpunched.

    And that’s not even touching the massive but biologically necessary pain in the ass mammalian birth is like.

    Honestly, I have no idea how the human race survives just how much a PITA it is to reproduce.

    Like, every woman should after giving birth for the first time rationally decide to never experience the agony of squeezing a bowling ball out of a donut ever again.

    Women go through that and like three years later think “Yup, time to go through all that again!”

    My hat is off and my spirit humbled.
