The fact is that bearing and rearing human children is a much more difficult process than for any other species on this planet.
These facts are referred to in this very same verse when God says He will "I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy conception; in pain thou shalt bring forth children". Whether you want to refer to it as "the context" or to "one of the things included in the context" does it make any difference? Either way why would God be warning the woman not to "turn to" the man for help?
The question is if a change in translation of this verse from the word "desire" to "turn to" results in changing the interpretation to God warning the woman not to turn to man for help.

Gen. 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 thee.
Please point me to the verse that says God is warning the woman not to "turn to" the man for help.
Thanks,
