Not trying to be offensive. Just asking

I'm 27 and have been married for 3 years. We both have very well paid jobs and would be able to give any child the best of everything. Problem is I don't like children, never have never will and my husband knew that from the start. He told me he was more than willing to give up having children if it meant spending the rest of his life with me. We’ve taken every precaution possible short of doing something permanent which my doctor said was out of the question given my age and the fact that I haven’t had children, to make sure we don't get pregnant but here I am 6 weeks pregnant. I don't want this baby. It’s going to ruin everything, all my hopes and dreams for the future going down the drain. I feel like I'm being punished. He told me that me aborting would be the one thing he would never be able to get past since he considers this baby a miracle given that it was conceived against all odds. What happened to for better or worse? My parents and my best friend who's been trying to conceive for the last 5 years think I'm being incredibly selfish, but they're not the ones who'll have to deal with a screaming baby when it arrives. Adoption is out of the question because my husband refuses to let someone else raise his child when he’s perfectly capable of doing so himself. Having the baby, divorcing him and letting him raise it is out of the question for me because of the way everyone including my friends and family will look at me for abandoning my child when I never wanted it in the first place. Why can't anyone accept my decision? Why should I have to lose everything because of a baby I never wanted in the first place?

why most men (heterosexual) are attracted to females only and aroused by the female body but most women (heterosexual) are attracted to both sexes and and aroused by both bodies types , and maybe women are more visually aroused by other women bodies than men
some studies say that women are bi and most of them fantasize about eachothers and wish to do it but only few who express it
is that true?

What can we do to change these perceptions that are very counterproductive?

empowering, enlightening or offensive?
Warning to the faint of heart, as they express obvious feminist sentiment.

then why don't they stop making blanket statements about men (ie that we're ALL chauvanist pigs, dogs, etc.)? If they can't be bothered to show us men respect enough to judge us individually, then what right do they have to expect us to treat them any better than dirt?

And must result to petty name-calling. Are these cyber-bullies so dumb they can't type a single sentence without name calling?

i couldnt grasp this concept,, they will look for the nice guy and expect the guy to be the best and do stuffs for her, she will ask him everything about his life and stuff but its not our right to ask her anything, jeez. and if you ever question her about anything then they say u dont trust her or respect her. if this is the case i might as well get an escort for my sexual interest and adopt a kid. at least i can help in the kids life and not worry about whomever i am married with. Whats wrong with women these days ? I definately must let go of thinking i am here to protect women and care for them. Those days are way over, its gonna be equality and f**k anyone who calls me a player. Im done with the nice guy who treats women well and get hurt act. Dammit men are human too,doesnt it matter if we get our heart broken ? what im not suppose to whine because im a man ? F**K you who thinks that way

ok, i think a lot of people don't exactly get my question. when women get sexual attention from guys, they take it differently depending on who it's from. i'm not talking about stalking or constant firting or sexual harassment. i'm just talking about if a guy just shows interest in you, not in a sexually explicit way. for most women, if they are walking in the street and a group of construction workers is checking them out, they will be creeped out and annoyed. but if they're at the movie theater and a group of cute high school boys is checking them out, they are flattered and they love it. even though they're not really interested in either, how come they have double standards? why is it perfectly ok for some guys to show their interest in women and not for others? do you think this is fair?

i'm asking this in the women's studies section, because it's about women. please give me a helpful answer.

Most girls always say "I'm going out to see my girlfriends tonight."

You NEVER hear guys say "I'm hanging out with my boyfriends tonight."

Why is this so?

Sandstorm's info. is no longer available. I wonder if the Yahoo PC police have been working overtime? Feminists, can you really not stand up to the scrutiny so you have to report everyone who doesn't agree with you?

In the interest of fairness, I wanted to put this question out there too, so we can explore both sides of the coin. So, what female stereotypes are portrayed in pop culture? Specific examples (from TV shows, films, songs, videos, ads, etc)?
