Nobody wants to pay for children that aren’t theirs. So again, the question becomes what makes this thing-in-a-womb someone’s child? Pro-choice has already won its battle in court countless times with its solid objective science. But abortion is a social issue as well as a science issue. Pro-life is every bit as responsible for the way things are as pro-choice because pro-life has no scientific or social response other than hand-wringing, pontification and violence.

Pro-choice demands to make the decisions yet they howl about child-poverty being so wrong and unfair. Pro-choice hides behind pro-life when it comes to money and pro-life lets them get away with it. As long as pro-life refuses to hold those making the decisions accountable for the decisions they make, things will never change – including child poverty and abortion.

So what would happen if men too had a choice? Would abortions skyrocket because women would no longer be assured of the income needed to support their children and so kill them? But maybe abortions would decrease because a lot of these accidental pregnancies aren’t really accidental after all. Or maybe the number would remain flat because women already have children whether they can support them or not simply because it is their birthright as women to do so.

No matter what the numbers do, do you really think things would stay the same if pro-choice had to help pay the tab for the consequences of being pro-choice? Right now they don’t have to and that’s the problem.

How old is the child suppose to be in Florida in order for him to decide with which parent he would like to live?

Wow…just when I thought we couldn’t get any more ridiculous, I found this site!!! I am never disappointed in men’s capacity for stupidity and egotism. We are nothing if not consistent(yes, I am a man, clearly I have been “bewitched” by the “coven”). Y’all rock. Now go drink some beer and have a pissing match so we can elevate our species. Oh, and hey, did you know that some frogs can self-fertilize? Maybe with a little modern genetic manipulation, we don’t need women at all! But then, who among you wants to see an obstetrician?

OK, so I agree with a everything I’ve read about men’s rights except for this one. My opinion is undoubtedly colored by the fact that I am pro life. I also admit that I don’t know much about family court. I do not, however, believe that a woman should be cornered into killing her child, giving it to strangers or raising it in poverty. Who’s responsibility is it to make sure these children aren’t raised in poverty? Is it mine? NO THANK YOU. I pay enough taxes already. Now, do I think there should be some serious reform in child support laws? Yes, I absolutely do. But the idea that a man can “abort” his child is ridiculous. Signing away your parental rights is very different than killing a child in your womb, or giving that child away. I hate to say it, but this is one way that life just isn’t fair. That being said, I do think there needs to be some serious reform in child support laws.

Men just need to be the responsible gender because women have made it clear that they will not be.

She says she’s on the pill? She needs to give the pill to you to inspect to be sure it is actually the birth control pill and must take it in front of you as well as show a clear mouth that it has been taken. After that, you still wear the condom, because hey, reduce the risk, it doesn’t feel as good and is a slight pain in the butt but a child is a bigger pain if you are not ready. If she doesn’t agree to do so, she isn’t worth your time, find another. Here is your choice right here.

There of course is many methods of subversion that the woman can do in this case including induced vomiting to remove the pill from her digestive system, and sabotage of the condom, a better method is a vasectomy. Chances of complication are extremely low (not zero) and you get the added benefit of potentially ruining someone’s scheme.

The men who engage in spontaneous unprotected sex with a random female that “claims” she is on the pill or better yet, infertile (laughable, this nearly never happens), are making a bad decision because you are having sex with someone who could be untrustworthy or have the maturity level of a twelve year old.

You may take this post as an effort to paint every woman as an immature, irresponsible, near useless leech of society. This is not the purpose of this. However there is ALWAYS a chance you can run into a person like this REGARDLESS OF GENDER. HOWEVER, currently, women hold the power so men like this can only think and not take any real action (without legal consequences). Why risk it? A woman who cares about you in a relationship will not be offended by your precautions since she should not want a child either and would probably force you to wear the condom or you two are obviously incompatible

Well I would like to say three things. First, Sara, you sound like both an excellent mother and a logical thinking human being. To MAKAELA, what is laughable is when people use things that happened in the PAST, not to anyone who is alive NOW, to justify feeling sorry for themselves, expecting others to feel sorry for them, and expecting others to feel guilty for what their ancestors did, NOT them. And finally, just a quick comment on the subject at hand. If women have the right to decide whether or not they want to be a child’s mother, then men have to have the right to decide whether they want to be the child’s father. http://www.peoplelikemakaelaaretheproblem.com

Of course guys don’t want to wear condoms. Of course they rely on their partners who enjoy the luxury of a pill. Of course they get pissed when they’re told that the pill is no longer in play – that a profound change in the relationship has just been made unilaterally without any prior discussion or notice whatsoever. Of course they’re angry. These guys just realized that their “partners” haven’t been taking their pills thoughout the current relationship nor down through the many years and boyfriends that came before just because it was much easier and more convenient that she do so; and it most certainly wasn’t because it had anything at all to do with her respecting any boyfriend’s wish not to become a dad just yet. Guys make the mistake of thinking that her pill is all about mutually unwanted pregnancies when there is nothing mutual at all about it. It’s a real eye-opener when they finally figure that one out. They’ve been manipulated and trumped so now they’re pissed. That they sometimes stick around means they’ve bought into the relationship past the point of easy departure. This ain’t rocket science.

Now admittedly, this is only one of many possible reasons a guy could get mad. And I won’t even bother responding to the whiny stuff about the awfulness of being woman.

While adoption is a noble option (though I disagree that wanting your children to have your genes is selfish), it does point out something fundamentally wrong with our country: America is a place where a dad needs sole legal title to his kids just to avoid being separated from them at his own expense and then bled afterward. Men should not have to adopt just to be considered parents in equal standing. Men must start taking parenthood just as seriously and as selfishly as women do. Men must demand more and better reproductive options and parental considerations.

If his genes make it his child then abortion is literally baby killing. If she has a choice then he gets a choice because conception does not a baby make – so sayeth Roe v Wade.

can anyone offer the name or names of a lawyer in washington state who is an advocate of law interested in helping someone in a situation that began with papers being served for a surprise child who was 3 old and has unraveled into tens of thousands in arrears, a cleaned out bank account, a suspended driving license, a suspended passport, and a conviction to make sure the pursuit of happiness of a man who engaged in a consentual relationship with a woman who secretly had a child without his knowledge is supressed to the point of suicide contemplation. We’ve been looking and talking to many lawyers but no one seems to be interested in helping in any other way than to get money to submit papers but not take on a cause. Any information would be greatly appreciated…!

if a man wants to have a son or a daughter, he should consider adoption at first place. this is a responsible and realistic way to deal with the will to raise a family.

it is selfish, not only in the gender relations, but also socially, to wish a child for its genetic similitude to the parent’s.

plus, one should be able to chose whether she would experience an extreme process such as pregnancy. the physical and psychological impact of that is something not known to males.
