*Women health>>>Menopause

Do you believe that women have been punished with periods, childbirth, and menopause because of Eve's sin?


I've been told that females have been punished with menstrual cycles, childbirth, and menopause because of Eve's sin, but does this really make any sense? After all, Homo sapiens isn't the only animal species in which the females have menstruation or livebirth. Also, what about the animal species that reproduce sexually but don't have menstruation or livebirth? And what about the species that reproduce asexually? Does it make sense for God to punish humans and some other animal species but not others?

It's very healthy to question.

I myself believe that it's just pure biology. No religious mumbo jumbo answer, just that that's the science of life.
From what I understand, the consequence of Eve's sin was that childbirth was going to be painful. Menstrual cycles probably still would have happenened because they are necessary to reproduce.
As a man I would say the one thing I envy about women is that they can experience giving birth and nurturing a child. It seems more like a reward than a punishment.
Nope. I don't believe in the Eve story at all, so there you go.

If there is a god, it's more likely he/she/it/they gave childbirth to the sex that could handle it. :)
I think that it is once again the churches way of trying to hold women back and make it seem like all the worlds problems would be fixed if only men had options (seem to be working great for our world leaders). I honestly think that women got all of those wonderful hormonal blessings because men are too big of babies to handle it.
No. The myth of Adam and Eve comes from much older texts than the jewish text of genesis; so it is fiction.
That's what the Bible says: Genesis 3:16

"Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over them."

For all of you who are against the Bible that's okay because you will see in the end that it's true. Eve's transgression caused this. Look at what it says in the New Testament:

1 Timothy 2:14- 15

Adam was not decieved, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
