Why should abortion only be the choice of the woman when it is the man's seed?

Question

Searious, so what? Is it the man's fault that he doesn't have a womb?

gg that's absolutely incorrect there are plenty of women who abandon their children so how does that paint a picture of responsibility?

Answer 1

I agree wholeheartedly. Although it is the woman that has "control" for the first nine months, if she truly doesn't want the child, then she should sign custody over to the willing, and often overlooked, father. What's the most that will happen to her? The same thing as a father when a single mother keeps a child HE doesn't want; financial responsibility. Maybe sagging boobs and stretch marks. As opposed to murdering a HALF unwanted child? Seems like a clear choice to me.

Abortion is a procedure that, for the most part, takes the mother out of the picture. She goes in, signs some papers, and is medicated until the procedure is done. She feels like she's having a bad period. She doesn't see the actual baby, so it makes her desensitized to the situation. It's just another office visit.

I know I'm gonna get a zillion thumbs down for this, but enough is enough!!!

Abortion is not birth control!!!!

Nuff said...

and Blessings to all the would-be fathers that yearn to hold their child, but are never given the chance...or the choice.

Answer 2

Giving it's the man's seed then he should take full responsibility for his actions, (planting the seed).
I think you will find many men don't give a hoot, this is usually when women feel the need to abort the baby, it's very hard to bring a child into the world without support from the child's father.

Aborting babies is not a means of contraceptive. Absitinance is. Simply don't have sex unless you're aware of the consequenses. Most oral contraceptives have a 99.7% sometimes less, percentage rate.
Be aware that there is still that slight possibility of getting pregnant even if you are relying on contraceptives.

I don't believe in abortions but mainly because I am a mother and I know very well of the beautiful connection a child brings, even if they're still cooking inside the womb, they're still very much alive and real to me.

Answer 3

Simple, a woman's body. Women carry the child.. not a man. She'd have to go through the symptoms, 9 months of pregnancy... labour. AND after all that the guy can change his mind about taking the baby. It'll ALWAYS be the woman's decision, no matter what the man says. And until men can carry a child, this is the way it'll be.

Answer 4

Men are very important just as well. but i disagree.. Men shouldn't and dont have the right o decide which is best for the womon. You see, the womon is the one who is actually carring the child, which the men are there for surport. Which is good. but not in a abortion way. If men were the ones actually carring the child then it would be the same way, womon wouldn't have the right. All the men do is plant the seed, and suport [ if they're the kidna of man that would ]

Answer 5

I don't know but it is my opinion that if both of you agree for abortion that is one thing. You force a woman to abortion you have another thing coming. May not be your fault but you could never know what it is like to have life inside you and growing. If it became clear my hubby would force me to have an abortion I would leave him in a heartbeat and he knows it. It is where my differences come in. I believe a man has every part in it because no child could be born without a man. Even in in vitro you need a man for fertilization because of his sperm. I also believe if one wants the child then it is his right as well. It can seem unfair to men but the cliche life is unfair rings true in this too.

Answer 6

I think it is unfair for men in that aspect too, especially if he wants the child and the women aborts it...

The thing is that pregnancy can be just awful... Hormones (imagine pms for 9 months.. believe me.. you end up hating yourself), I didn't work either pregnancy due to extreme dizziness and fatgue.. I couldn't walk more then a few blocks due to water retention for 9 months. Got so fat that I couldn't tie my shoes and had to buy slip ons ( a size bigger due to swelling). Almost died in labour. An my maternity leave is 65% of my acutal wage.. and that is suporting two people.

I think that is why the women gets to choose.. but i do agree, from a man's point of view, it is unfair.

Answer 7

alot of pro lifers arguments are that women who get "knocked up" are whores and sluts who shouldn't have been opening their legs, and that somehow trumps the fact that women are just as capable of making an informed decision, and having control of their own bodies. So then does a man, and he could have forced his hand to insert his penis into a condom, therefore lowering the chances of getting said woman knocked up. If that happened and she somehow got pregnant anyways, then at the end, it is her choice by law...you will have to deal with it.

If you are in a committed relationship, then I would hope and think that if your partner was considering an abortion, that she would discuss it with you first, but at the end of all the drama, it is by law her choice and only her choice as it is her body and only her body, not yours and not the big bad governments.

Answer 8

Because a man cannot control what a woman does with her body. Men can walk out of a family whenever they want, but a woman has full responsibility for the baby.

If men could get pregnant, they would be in complete control of their bodies as well. Nobody can control what a woman does with her body.

I am against abortion in most cases, but a woman has got to have the choice, bad as it may be, it is sometimes necessary.

Answer 9

It's harder to prove paternity in a fetus that is under 20-25 weeks. Very expensive and not always as accurate as the DNA test after birth.

Answer 10

It should NOT be the sole decision of a woman. It's the man's baby also. Legal action should be available for any man who's GF/wife killed his baby w/o consulting him first.
