Sex frightens children, too. Especially the girls. THINK about what happens to them. Until they are ready for it, well, they aren't ready for it, okay? That's why parents normally EASE into the full truth over the course of several years as the kids are old enough to handle it.
Hell can be explained when it is appropriate to do so.
I should have expected you to evade the question, given how you have been ignoring it for so long.
Losty is right. Sex is not frightening, or should not be. Children are curious about it, and often ask about it, except when their elders react badly to such questions. So you are giving a false analogy.
If you think sex is comparable to hell for a woman, you must be doing something terribly wrong when you have sex.
