I was with some girlfriends last night and they were talking about childbirth. Neither of them have had kids, but we've all had it described to us in detail by others who have. They reckon it's all supposed to remain a mystery, as if people really knew what went on we'd become extinct. Thankfully I don't want kids anyway, but one of the women said she wants to adopt as she wants them but doesn't want to do the childbirth thing and all that comes after. Sounds like some things are just best left unknown.
