Quote From: tiffertotsNow what if ...a women got pregnant by mistake, felt she was incapable of being a good mother and wanted to terminate the pregnancy. The father on the other hand wanted the child. Would it be fair for the court to not only force the mother to carry and deliver the child, but force her to pay support for the child after it was born....I smell a double standard!!
I can see your point.. and I would have the same view of that as I do of this. It happens every day. Meanwhile.. the baby (or fetus as it were) is in the woman's abdomen, not the man's. So I really don't see how a man could force her to carry the baby any more than a man can force her to have an abortion. But hey.. with all this science and technology maybe a man can find a way to carry the baby, go through abortion or labor, etc. I can think of a few women who would be happy to see that.
I guess that question is similar to if I say my neighbor's hand might smack me, should I be able to make him cut it off? Or should I stay away from my neighbor in the first place? Male or female.. if you don't want it.. you know what not to do.
