Do women realize that they're arguing against abortion when they argue

against male reproductive rights? Every time the topic of male reproductive rights comes up here on this board we see women that try to justify the current "women only" system that's currently in place.

What's fascinating is that these women don't seem to understand that every argument they use against men gaining reproductive rights is equally applicable to women.

These women are unknowingly condemning abortion.

They say things like "The man shouldn't have had sex" and "The man should've used a condom."

Well, that argument works on women too, so I guess we can make abortion illegal now because the women should've known better.

No? You want to keep abortion? You like having the ability to legally opt out of parenthood?

Duely noted.

The second argument that is also applicable to women is where men should have to be indentured servants because of the "it's for the child" reasoning.

Now, this one is even more ridiculous due to the fact that when women abort their child... that's not really the best thing for that child, now is it?

So again... if you really stand by your argument that if it's not the best thing for the child, then it's not right... then I guess you want to kiss abortion goodbye again.

No? You still want to hold onto it?

Fascinating.

So if women are guilty of the same things men are (knowing better and acting in their own self interests before the interests of the child) ...Then why should women and women alone be given the right to legally opt out of parenthood?

Another fascinating thing is that the word "responsibility" doesn't even enter the picture when it comes to female reproductive rights and it wouldn't even matter if it did... Because women already have those rights.

Funny how the word "responsibility" enters the conversation every time there's a discussion about men wish to opt out of parenthood.

Every single time.

Men have to be "responsible" for something that women can legally legally terminate or legally abandon.

Is this really the way our laws should work?
 
You can't 'opt out' of parenthood once a child is born.
Abortion= no children involved
Walking away from a baby= children involved.

See, isn't that simple?
 
I fully see that women make all the choices for all 3 involved - the man, herself and the baby - whether to keep, kill or adopt out.

The man and baby just get to live with whatever she chooses.
What also gets me is parents of underage teens don't get a say & neither do husbands.

50 years ago a man could sleep around and few people would find out about it but if a woman got pregnant she was condemned to stigma for the rest of her life.
Now its ok to have children whenever with who ever but the abortion rates are climbing.
Now its the men who are getting the stigma of being dead beat dads or just plain horrible for wanting a say in whether to keep the baby or not.

Quite frankly looking back 50 years ago I don't understand women who slept around, Now I am equally curious as to the men who sleep around.
Add to the fact that more people have sexually transmitted diseases
then ever before in history and sleeping around becomes like walking in a mine field.

I also agree yes either abortion be illegal or give men options for a legal abortion. While yes every one will say that their will be more kids being aborted or on welfare; eventually both sexes may revert back to a better moral lifestyle of waiting until marriage and marrying someone they actually want to stay with for the rest of their life, unlike the new idea of "lets try and if it doesn't work we'll divorce".

Lets just agree that no matter what happens not everyone is going to agree or be happy.
 
"it takes two to tango" comes to mind. however, in our society the male is held to be the more responsible party as you clearly demonstrate. i'd be surprised if this changes anytime soon.
