Maybe people shouldn't fuck each other period and avoid this problem altogether.

Also, men don't have reproductive rights once that sperm leaves their sack. Consider it a gift to the woman; one that she can throw away.

I'm playing devil's advocate. I don't think 9 out of 10 abortions should happen anyway. In fact, I don't think 9 out of 10 people should be fucking.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

That's pretty much it. It's essentially in the child's best interests to have both parents supporting them, even if one of them is only doing so financially.

What are this man's rights? Is forcing this guy to raise this child any different than forcing a raped woman to raise her child?
Wasn't there a case like this recently? In any case, wouldn't it be fraud? He'd still have to support the child, again, because it's in the child's best interests. The raped woman would have to carry around the product of her rape for 9 months, endure various health problems and labor and then try and raise her rapist's offspring. It's far removed from a man tricked by his partner into having a kid, and at the bare minimum supporting them financially.

The right to give someone exclusive rights to a decision as big as life should not be left up to one person. You can give me all the crap about it being her body but if half of that baby's genes are mine then i have every right to say how the care of my child is handled. Parental rights begin at conception.

No, see, the way I see it, if you look at an (unwanted) child as a mistake, don't be a bitch and cop out of it; hone up to your responsibility and support the kid.

Meanwhile, again I restate, don't fuck someone who want kids and you don't. Don't let someone fuck you who wants kids and you don't. Don't fuck (irresponsibly!) if one of you don't want kids. Rape is an entirely different matter altogether, but for the former, all of this bullshit could pretty much be easily taken care of if people stopped to consider what they're getting themselves into.

Wait.
So you are suggesting, in a manner of speaking... a-b-s-t-i-n-e-n-c-e?

I wonder how many people actually want to consider that an option.

My guess is not that many though.

Not necessarilly abstinence, though that is a sure-fire way to prevent this whole mess of moral bullshit.

I just mean that if you two can't come to an agreement, if, should, when one of you become pregnant, then you should probably refrain from fucking, or maybe even being together, altogether.

Yes, it's different.

No, it's still not fair for the guy.

But neither men nor women should ever have the right to up and walk away from their living, breathing child without supporting it in some way.

Do you support forcing the mother of your unborn child through an abortion because you do not want to support her (your) child?

This is definitely one of those issues where, yes it's unfair, but life is unfair in more ways than just this. We as men need to stop dwelling on the negative and just accept our responsibility like ... well ... men.

With the number of people and groups who are clamboring for some pretty obtuse rights, it'll be refreshing to see someone accept a social responsibility instead.

Hmm, this thread seems like it will end up in a bad way.

That said.

Is it not fair to give men actual rights when it comes to how child bearing is handled? Why does a women get all control and the ability to manipulate the mans life as she sees fit? Remember here, both sexes have to fuck in order to get pregnant. The womens egg is just as essential as the mans sperm.

I'm not saying that we should allow the men any say in abortion rights for woman, because that is absolutely ludicrous. No one should have a say over whether or not a women should have to go through the immense pain and suffering that comes with bearing a child. That is a decision that her and her alone should be allowed to make.

But, if a man wants a child and the women doesn't she can abort it to keep it, however she sees fit. What about the inverse situation? What if the woman decides that she wants to keep the accidental pregnancy but the male doesn't? Why should the woman force the man into something that he never wanted in the first place? Abortions are always available, but she is deciding not to go that route. Why should a woman be able to force a man into a situation that he does not want to partake in, but a man cannot do the same in the opposite situation? Sure, the man doesn't have to suffer the pain of carrying a baby, but he does have to carry the financial burden for the rest of his life.

Why should the woman be able to control everything and force something from a mistake that she herself helped create? Not that I would just leave a woman in this situation, but why shouldn't the law fair to all parties involved when the mistake was not the fault of a single party?

The mother carries a child for nine months. Not the father.

The mother's diet, health, and so on are what impacts the fetus. Not the father's.

The fetus gets its immunities, mitochondrial DNA, and so on overwhelmingly from the mother. Not the father.

The mother is the ones who face the dangers, complications, pain, and (depending on the person and circumstances) inconvenience of pregnancy and giving birth. Not the father.

Sorry, but once you deposit the sperm, the ball's in her court. Arguing for something as silly as "it's partly my genetic material, so I own the fetus too!" is understandable in some ways, but ultimately selfish. This isn't fucking copyright law. What you did by accident in two minutes doesn't trump what she'll have to go through for nine months.

The problem with that kind of argument is that it's essentially arguing that a man should be able to decide whether a woman is allowed to get an abortion. It's arguing that if she doesn't want to carry the baby, he should be able to force her to spent nine months miserable and force her to take the risks of pregnancy and childbirth. I don't know about the States, but here in Canada it's been settled.

Quote:
Tremblay v. Daigle [1989] 2 S.C.R. 530, was a decision of the Supreme Court of Canada in which it was found that a fetus has no legal status in Canada as a person, either in Canadian common law or in Quebec civil law. This, in turn, meant that men, while claiming to be protecting fetal rights, cannot acquire injunctions to stop their partners from obtaining abortions in Canada.

[...]the Court ruled that there was no precedent for men's rights to protect their "potential progeny."

To me this whole issue boils down to the simple rule, that you shouldn't be sleeping with anyone you cannot trust enough to take the necessary precautions and/or responsibilites - period. Sex does not have to involve love to be fun but if it's not founded on mutual trust and respect ... what the hell is going on in your life?

Sure, the woman has to put up with the pregnancy, but that means that SHE wants to pay for the financial burden of upbringing the child, but men do not have a choice in the matter.

Quite frankly, that's bullshit. There is no 100% anti-birth control, so the fact is that if something goes wrong, the guy gets fucked if the girl gets pregnant and decides to carry it to term.

The way this system is worked out, we would likely need a signed contract of some sort to prevent any sort of unwanted pregnancy becoming a financial burden for us men, and even then I'm not sure if that would hold up in any court of law.

The fact of the matter is: If the man has to retain any sort of responsibility to the child, financial or otherwise, then he should have a choice in the matter as to abortions or financial obligations. This is some seriously one-sided crap. I respect the 9 months women go through for childbirth, but cutting men out of a process that has LIFETIME financial rammifications for them is just plain stupid.

Male Reproductive Rights? You gotta be kidding me.

I think we should roll back laws to the Roman-era so that patriarch can make life and death decisions about any family/relationship matters!

Sure there is. Oral sex, dry humping, or even pulling out before ejaculation even WITH a condom. No way to get anybody pregnant there.

I would disagree with this. Given a situation in which my partner became pregnant but felt she didn't want to go through with pregnancy I would argue that I have a right to fight for that child's life. I understand I don't have the responsibility of carrying and delivering the child but I think I would be pretty upset if I knew I was a father but my partner made a decision to terminate the pregnancy and I ultimately could do nothing about it.
I agree. I think as long as at least one parent WANTS the child, there is no reason to abort it.

In fact I have to question why anyone would want an abortion. A parents primary duty is to protect their child, correct? I have no respect for a parent who would kill their own child just to make their (the parents) life a little easier. Thats what abrotion is all about after all...

Oh yes abortion is so evil. Lets force those rape victims to carry that bastard child. Lets force parents who cannot support a child have one so the child can starve and suffer thier whole life. Lets force mothers and fathers to have children with birth defects or disabilities thier whole life. I mean, it doesn't matter if the child has no chance of surviving or will never be able to function or grow in our world correctly. Because it's the right thing to let that baby be born!

Give me a break. Just because some people abuse the system doesn't mean it's wrong. There are some valid reasons to cancel a pregnancy.

I see where these guys are coming from. I really do. But I completely disagree that a man should ever have the authority to tell a woman what to do with HER body. Also, in these situations (99% of the time), not only is the woman going to be the primary caregiver in the literal sense, but she's going to carry a huge majority of the financial burden of the child, even if the guy does end up "having" to pay child support. They figure that shit out using a formula, and the person with custody ends up paying way more, whether its the mother or the father.

I don't think it's fair that men have no say, though. It just doesn't seem right. Maybe they could come up with something where if a guy officially requests the woman to have an abortion - going through some preset process - and she refuses, the amount of child support he's required to pay is significantly reduced.

I also think that if a guy chooses that route, he automatically forfeits his right to visitation, etc. having clearly demonstrated that he would rather see his child dead than have to fork over any money.

That's not, however, what is in the best interests for the child. Clearly, being distant and unwanted by your father is already not in the best interest for a child, but then, children need all of the support that they can get. In that sense, the least that a man could do is support his own offspring at least monetarily.

This is because laws lean to forcing individual responsibility. Parenthood is not something you can simply default out of, nor should it ever be that way. It may not be fair that a man is forced to support a child he didn't want, but then that's the price for not taking the personal responsibility to avoid reproduction.

You chose to date the bitch, you chose to sleep with her, and it was your fault that you didn't wear a condom or keep your condoms in a hidden place where they couldn't be tampered with. Even assuming that one did perform the latter, we still default to the former, in that one chose to sleep with a psycho.

Lots of things in life aren't fair, including the standards that society places on individuals. Yet, society feels that it is the biological father's responsibility to help support his own offspring, so they should just have to deal with it. No political maneuvering or temper tantrums will be able to change the spirit of the law that is against them.

Isn't this the whole justification for legalizing abortion of unwanted pregnancies other than rape/possible death situations? At least that's what people tell me. Better to kill a kid than have him grow up unwanted. That only works if the mother doesn't want him though, huh?

Er... not really. Aborition is justified because it's better to abort than raise a child the mother doesn't want, but it's not better to abort than raise a child the father doesn't want. Explain that.
