December 16, 201510 yr Or you can just be responsible for your own body and make sure you don't get anyone pregnant. It does take two to make a baby, you know. Wrap it up or keep it in your pants. It does take 2 to make a baby and 1 stupid woman to kill it
December 16, 201510 yr Or keep your legs together, that'll work too. Agreed I agree with JJ and G that I don't get why only one side of a double headed mistake gets to decide if the child lives or not. Not sure of the statistics but I'd be willing to bet that most women that get an abortion are not in a committed relationship with the "father" and do not want to raise a child alone. You just don't hear of many situations where the male steps up and wants to keep a child, especially if it was the result of a one night stand. As far as prostitution goes, if it is legalized it would need to be closely regulated for safety sake for both parties. Agreed Human Trafficking is a MUCH bigger problem than most people realize, maybe legalizing prostitution and and cracking down harder on what would be left as illegal prostitution would be a good first step. Definitely agree Definitely agree
December 16, 201510 yr For starters, that's assuming that all unplanned pregnancies arise out of unprotected sex. I'm sure most do, but certainly not all. Nevertheless, you posted that a man should take ownership for his own actions. The action that he must take ownership of is the sex itself (and resulting pregnancy). If the man doesn't have a choice in whether to keep/abort the baby, how can he take ownership for his actions? I get what you're saying. It's a double edged sword for sure but how do you force a woman to carry a baby that she doesn't want when it's growing inside her body?
December 16, 201510 yr I'll say this, if my son or daughter were in a situation where an abortion was used...I would be devastated. I would take on raising the child no questions asked and no support needed, knowing that a grandchild was aborted would just be devastating for both my wife and myself.
December 16, 201510 yr and then found out it wasn't their kid?! LOL #sucker I really don't have a lot of sympathy for men in these situations. Keep your pants zipped and none of this matters. Wait a minute, weren't there two at this party? Unless it's rape, it's 50/50 on the blame/mistake there sister.

So you agree that, in the situation of an unplanned pregnancy, the male cannot take ownership of his own actions? Therein lies the issue, in my opinion.
December 16, 201510 yr So you agree that, in the situation of an unplanned pregnancy, the male cannot take ownership of his own actions? Therein lies the issue, in my opinion. After the fact, no he cannot. I would agree with that.
December 16, 201510 yr Wait a minute, weren't there two at this party? Unless it's rape, it's 50/50 on the blame/mistake there sister. Sorry, late to the party again. This point has already been made.
December 17, 201510 yr After the fact, no he cannot. I would agree with that. Ah so you are beginning to see what I mean
December 17, 201510 yr and then found out it wasn't their kid?! LOL #sucker I really don't have a lot of sympathy for men in these situations. Keep your pants zipped and none of this matters. My brother in law always told his daughters. The final say is yours! Keep your legs crossed ladies!
