Quote From: lievenThis is a perfect example of man hating sexism. Lets consider adding one key point to women's slogan regards abortion:
" Her body, her choice... HER *responsibility* ! "
In an age where women have MANY means to void legal parenthood, POST coitally, it is nothing more and nothing less than man hating sexism to DENY men any such legal rights.
Lets remember that abortion ISN'T a natural thing, that Legal Abandon Laws ( In 40+ states now )
AREN'T natural things, and so on.
Either men should get legal post coital choices or women should have such post-coital choices
as men get right now: NONE.
Anything else is pure misandrous sexism. Ptui.
Oh, one more point to the sow who posted this sexism: Men do the lion's share of the work that keeps society running. When women are ready to do *as much and as well*, then maybe equal
rights at work might be tolerated. Hows you like that ?
I have to tell you, I became highly motivated to register for the Dr. Phil message board after I read your hilarious post. I haven't heard a person (besides maybe in jest) use the expression "man hating sexism" since the last time I watched a political report or movie from or depicting the 1970's. Maybe those were your glory days...
I have to say that there could be and probably will be in the future, a VERY limited number of cases, where a woman commits reproductive fraud (this requires premeditation, meaning a woman would have to have a plan - "I'm going to entice this man, who is under the impression that I cannot become pregnat, to have sex with me, unprotected, and I am aware that there is a good possibility, that I will become pregnant.") In those cases, as difficult as they would be to prove, I agree that it is then a woman's responsibility to be the sole financial (and otherwise) provider for that child.
The VAST majority of cases of unplanned pregnancy result because of miscommunication (or simply not communicating), or misuse of contraceptives. Does it seem just a little ridiculous to you to imagine a scenario: two people, in the heat of the moment, passionately looking at one another and the man says, "Seriously, I don't want a kid. Look me in the eye and tell me you won't get pregnant." Or better yet, maybe pull out a waiver and have the other party sign on the dotted line (which by the way would be your best legal protection).
So, many of the people that have been putting up posts on this message board are exactly correct. If you don't want the concern of fatherhood in the back of your mind (which for the record, is a NATURAL consequence of the sex act), then refrain from having sex. Or if this is as unappealing to you as it is to me, then don't have sex unless you know that your partner is being totally honest with you.
Although, unless you didn't mean much of what you said and were just writing it to get a rise out of people, my guess would be that you probably don't attract many worthwhile prospective mates. I found your post so humorous because you sound like Will Ferell in "Anchorman". "I'm not a BABY. I am a MAN. I am a man who invented the wheel and built the Eiffel Tower with metal and brawn." And he stands there in his hideous suit, his chest hair begging to be set free. And everyone laughs, because the caveman mentality went out a couple of decades ago.
That said, as for your last comment, it doesn't require a thoughtful response, because it isn't a thoughtful, or even legitimate point. It's ignorant. But it did give me and my friends something to joke about all day. Thanks!
