If it is a "Woman's Right to Choose", what does the man get?

Question

Ok...before I get slammed by some feminazis telling me "It takes two to make a baby" and "If a man doesn't want a child, he shouldn't be having sex", I would like to point those fingers back at women.

Yes, a pregnancy affects a woman's body...however, as pointed out above..."It takes two to tango".

If a woman decides to abort a pregnancy, some people will say "That's ok...it's her choice".

If a man doesn't want to have a child, should he not have the right to dissolve any responsibility for the child?

SadaamLiedPeopleDied:

Right!

Hey Squawk...

You don't know if I listen to Limbaugh or not...don't assume...you know...the whold "*** out of U and Me" thing.

And...if a woman doesn't want to get pregnant (other than rape or incest) shouldn't she be insistant on a man wearing a condom as well as the man being insistant on wearing one?

Does responsibility only go one way?

Thanks for your time!

So, Pepper...

Are you insinuating that women don't enjoy sex?

Quoting you:

"A man gets his rocks off, as usual."

That statement is rather one sided, no?

That's the type of answer I was trying avoid with my disclaimer (although admittedly, I didn't label it as such).

Answer 1

I've often wondered why more men don't fight for the right to choose what happens to the life they equally contributed to conceiving..

I've had three children. At the time of my last childs birth I was 25 years and 7 months old. That means I was pregnant for 27 out of 307 months of my lifetime for three children. Those 27 months went by like the blink of a eye. For those 27 months I didn't lose all ability to live my life. In fact, out of those 27 months, I probably didn't even realize I was pregnant for a total of 3 to 4 of the 27 months combined. So lets subtract 3. That means that I had knowledge of being pregnant for 24 months out of 307 with the knowledge that out of those 24 months I have been blessed with havng 3 children. Now, lets take into consideration exactly how many of those months my life and my body *felt* the impact of what being pregnant means. The only time during a pregnancy that your body feels the impact of being pregnant usually occurs when the baby is large enough that it starts pressing up against vital organs in your body. Normally a woman starts showing between her 4th and 5th month but it doesn't start to actually affect what you can or can not do until about the middle of the 6th month. By the end of the 7th month it starts to get uncomfortable. So, I am going to be conservative here on the estimate and say 6 months is when it becomes a real issue. Lets do the math. We have aleady determined that out of the 27 months it is safe to say that 3 months don't even count because there is no evidence of a prenancy apparent. That takes it down to 24 months. Now, your life and body are not impacted for up to six months so that equals another 5 months that can be subtracted for each pregnancy. So now we get to subtract 15 months from 24 months. That left me 9 months out of 307 months of total pregnancy time that I have had to endure some form of discomfort for the blessing of having three wonderful children. So that means for approximately 298 months out of 307 months my life was free of the torture of being pregnant. Usng the word torture is being a bit melodramatic but that is what women who use the excuse of carrying the baby *for all that time* are saying. It's just awful!! I should be able to kill this life in me because I may have to endure 3 months of some discomfort and if it really gets bad, 20 hours of labor! That isnt even a full day. And... the longest labor from beginning to end that I had to endure was just over 6 hours. It is actually pretty pathetic when you think about it and actually do the math, is't it. Three months of torture for the woman versus eternity for the baby who never gets the chance of life.

So when I hear the excuse (and that is all it is) that a woman should be the sole person to decide because she is the one tht has to carry the baby for 9 months I almost have to laugh. Out of those 9 months maybe 3 (and that is being generous) of those months a woman may actually be limited in functions that it takes to live her life. Three months is hardly alot of time to sacrifice to give a baby a chance at life. And ABSOLUTELY not an excuse that the male who impregnated her should not have a choice as to what happens with that life.

So yes, I have to wonder, why aren't more men standing up for their rights in the decision for what should happen to *their* baby too.

Answer 2

I understand what you are saying. As a man, I have had the same question. But parental rights are one thing. The real question here is whether a man's right to want a child is more important than a woman's right to choose what happens to her body. Try to imagine if the situation was reversed. Would you want the court to tell you what to do with your body if men got pregnant and the woman wanted a kid you didnt want? I know I wouldnt.

Answer 3

The Constitution guarantees the right to, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. When a woman becomes pregnant it is no longer her body. It is their body. When does the baby get a vote. I have twin 8 year old grand daughters who's father abandoned their mother when he found out she was expecting. I took them in and shared in the joy of her pregnancy and the birth of the girls. I sat with them in shifts over the incubators. I thank God for them everyday. I oft wonder out of the over 40 million on demand abortions we have allowed, how many of those lives might have been the Doctor that may have cured cancer or invented something that would have benefited Mankind. This is America's genocide. I find it troubling that they pass laws about what we can put in our stomachs but when we try to explain that it is a live human being in theirs it's choice.

Answer 4

A woman definitely has the right to choose. She has the right to choose by having sex, or abstaining from it. The man has the right to have a responsible relationship. Then when the time comes, he gets a wife and children. If a man chooses to sleep around, he should be more careful not to do it with a selfish tramp that would rather kill a baby and keep her time focused on herself.

Answer 5

Okay. First of all, I am NOT a feminazi. I am a Conservative Christian woman.

But it does take 2 to tango. And if men had to take the consequences of their sexual actions, abortion would diminish to non-significance.

So we need to make laws that hold everyone's feet to the fire. Those with the out of control libidos should not get off scot-free while women carry the entire brunt.

Answer 6

rapidly adult adult males will call some adult adult males handsome in the event that they greater healthy societies definition of the appropriate male physique.yet you ought to achieve that adult adult males dont think of adult adult males are the greater effectual looking than women by way of any stretch like women think of ladies idealize elegance. women frequently say looking a member of an identical intercourse aesthetically friendly doesn’t lead them to gay, and it is real. as a count of certainty, i've got confidence every physique who hates his/her intercourse sufficient to contemplate his/her gender’s physique intrinsically gruesome has subject concerns. yet, the archetypical woman doesn’t end there, she additionally says “women are greater alluring than adult adult males” and this time issues are very diverse. while evaluating adult adult males to ladies, they are judging a logo (“elegance”) interior of a dichotomous format; it has not something to do with looking one’s intercourse aesthetically friendly or not (a case we already uncovered), this time it particularly is a pair of “equipped in” (yet moderated by way of society) bigotry which will render one intercourse’s actual characteristics greater alluring than the different’s. this undertaking needless to say is composed of sexual orientation because of the fact the gadgets would be evaluated in keeping with sexual attributes; and because the two sexes are actually not equivalent, the result can not be something yet a Boolean (the two male characteristics render the male intercourse greater effectual looking or woman characteristics render women greater effectual looking, somebody who says they are the two alluring is mendacity on the grounds that we start up from the inspiration of thinking the two sexes visually diverse and somebody who says they are diverse is in basic terms eluding the assessment on an identical time as putting forward the obtrusive). maximum women are lesbian (they discover the female physique greater aesthetically friendly , they choose to look at women, etc.) leaning bisexuals (they seem for carriers, see intercourse as a job, etc) by way of nature; i don't get why anybody is so reluctant to settle for this certainty. I advise, it rather is hardly a revelation.

Answer 7

Well, you answered my answer for me. If a man does not want a child, he should take every precaution against it. Including, condoms and not having casual sex with a girl that he could not trust that she is taking pregnancy prevention cautions.

Answer 8

A man gets his rocks off, as usual. If a man doesn't want to impregnate a female and avoid such nastiness, he should wear protection - every time.

Men most certainly have reproductive rights - condoms or vasectomy.

Answer 9

Too often the man gets to know the woman murdered his child before it was born. He gets no chance to raise the child himself.

Answer 10

What if the man's child is killed as a result of an abortion?
