Okay, as a woman who is a mother and believes in equal rights, I have a bit to say about this. When a woman chooses to have consensual sex with a man and gets pregnant, she has the RIGHT to say, yes or no I want to be a parent to this child. However, when a man consenually has sex with a woman and she gets pregnant he is chained to this woman by a child for the rest of his life. He has NO CHOICE of whether he wants to be a parent or not. I think men should have the same choice. I DO NOT think a man should dictate whether or not a woman should have an abortion or not, but I do think he should have a window of time where he can say, I choose not to have any rights to this child and not to support this child and it's mother. The mother gets to decide, so why shouldn't the father?

Why would someone choose a lifestyle they know will cause them strife? Why would someone choose to be hated and denied rights because of their sexuality. Sexuality is NOT a choice. It saddens me greatly to see people hate and judge people based on who they are and who they were created to be. Children are children and should not be judged or hurt because of who they are. If my daughter wants to play with typical "boy" toys that's okay with me. Because I support her for who she is. Not only does it teach our children that who they are is not okay it also teaches them that because they are this or that sex that cannot do something. Such as girls that play with army toys...my daughter could be in the military and succeed just as well as a boy. Now, as far as what the Bible says. We put to much faith in a book that was put together by men at a council where they decided what books could stay and what books had to go. Too much faith in a book that King James V had translated for his people so he could rule them in the way HE saw fit. Let children be who they are and love and support them. Quit hidding behind the bible or anything else and face the things that scare you or you don't understand.
