Yes, it does. Not that it matters, women should have the right to abort, end of story. If they don't, how can we say it's parity to refuse Parenthood ourselves when women can't?

A mother can still decide to abort her child, even if the father does not agree. Ideally the choice you make when you have sex isn't that you'd become a legal parent against your will, it's that you'd have no say over what she did with the child and if you were involved if you weren't a couple. But There's no federal protection anymore. It's getting harder to get abortions. Some states it's just illegal. Some states want to prosecute if a woman crosses state lines to get an abortion. So the days…

For unmarried individuals, the father should have the right not to pay maintenance if the child is unwanted by him but the mother wanted to have it anyway. I was of the same opinion until Roe v. Wade was overturned. I can't really advocate for it anymore. The universal right to choose Parenthood should be instated for both sexes at the federal level.

Men have their own issues in modern society. This is not happening like it should in the sub conciousness. (haha pun) Second, an even bigger set of the sub has this derranged attatchment to "owning the feminists" by replying zingy one-liners about how feminists are dumb and definitely all the same in opinion. Especially if you use the forbidden "patriarchy" word. I feel disturbed by the lack of understanding I see here. [...] Dissecting feminist literature and jeering when it doesn't appeal to m…

Women murder more human beings than men could ever do. https://www.lifenews.com/2025/01/02/abortion-was-the-leading-cause-of-death-worldwide-in-2024-killing-73-million-people/?cmid=53696e82-d8f4-4557-8f7c-dd581c7f7cd3 Depends on what you consider murder. Most who believe in a woman's right to choose would call this a nonsensical statement, as would I. The vast majority of abortions are performed before a fetus gains any sapience or even an ability to think or feel pain. As most abortions take pl…

Yes, that's why I'm for mandatory abortion except when both want to become parents. Why should someone else be able to force a woman to abort a pregnancy? Like why should anyone be able to force anyone else to have a medical procedure they don't want?

Like your personal emotional bonds? Yes. Admittedly, I barely skimmed the article, so maybe it was referencing something else, but that's the case for me. The women I have been close to my life have done some really fucked up things to me, and I no longer associate with them, but hopefully I can eventually forge close emotional bonds with woman who won't do that as well.

I once answered someone's question in the sub and during the process I described in detail how I think certain attitudes that are common in mainstream feminism may influence pushing men towards radical groups and influences like Andrew Tate because I suspect those spaces are the first places that gave a lot of those men the room to speak and actually listen to their issues. Especially since mamy those men they struggle with likely weren't really an allowed as a topic of discussion in most areas,…

I can't speak for everyone, but I don't even like to cook, and the last time I made food for guests they told me it was the best version of that dish they'd ever had. My ex's kids would ask who cooked when I told them it was time for dinner, and sometimes she would get a little miffed because they always hoped it was me.

See that as it may, it doesn't make giving one party the right to choose Parenthood and forcing the other to follow their decision simply because they both consented equally to sex. two enthusiastic parents. It seems like a forcing someone into parenthood against their will could produce rather resentful parents and family dynamics that are broken and dysfunctional from the beginning, which is far worse than having a single parent.

I want my tax dollars back, I'm not interested in paying for women's welfare because they had a kid. I'd rather the father be the one paying for it (or non custodial mother). I'm sure this will stop people from having sex and accidental pregnancies and fix the financial woes within America regarding children. And if that doesn't work, at least we'll be punishing people for engaging sexually in ways you personally believe they shouldn't. Or, you know, people who have an accident or birth control …

I'm not, if a woman gives custody to the father, or the judge does, she's liable for child support. It's gender neutral law. But she doesn't have to give custody or have the child at all. That's the whole point. And if a woman is in Texas? Does that change your opinion? In states that have banned abortion, maybe the state still forces men to become parents too. That's reasonable. What if she's religious and thinks abortion is murder? Does her morale values factor? You seem to have turned abortio…

Accidental pregnancies almost always put the taxpayer on the hook. I'm okay with paying taxes for Healthcare and in supporting children in our country. There are other approaches we can take to address the issues, and in the long run it will be a benefit to both the children and the country as a whole anyway.

Otherwise it's good. I don't want men running around having kids they don't pay child support to, regardless of abortion legality. Seems pretty sexist to put that all on men when women are the ones ultimately choosing to have the children.

That's your opinion and I understand it. Personally I don't want men running around having kids that they don't pay to support. Im against welfare, rather end the program. Now you understand if there's no welfare and no child support, many women will have their children confiscated by the govt and put into foster care.

The act of consentual sex is an agreement to be held responsible for it's consequences which includes pregnancy. Consent to sex is not consent to children. Even if that was true at one point, in the age of birth control and woman being able to freely choose abortions*, it's not anymore.

Biology is not equal. Men don't need to go through the pain of pregnancy nor periods, it's quite nice for them. The downside of no pain of pregnancy is also no control past sex. You realize these two things are not connected in the slightest? Biology isn't fair, that's literally the entire reason women have the unilateral right to abort and men shouldn't have a say, because it's their body that has to go through the pregnancy and only their body. Men should still have the right to choose whether…

If he had a say in the sex, he should have a say in the abortion Absolutely not. You should get to choose whether you become a parent in the event that the woman keeps the pregnancy.

If he doesn’t want you to get an abortion but you do, then perhaps consider giving birth and giving him full custody pending whenever you finish college. You’ll regret not being involved, but it’s better than abortion. Pregnancy and birth are still incredibly taxing and often damaging, often coming with life-long changes. I don't think she should give birth just to give him the kid unless she doesn't mind these potential consequences. And although the chances of his success are relatively slim, …

The post asks what SHOULD happen. What should happen is abortion in every case where there are not two willing parents. I think the woman should be able to unilaterally decide what happens with the pregnancy. Optionally, she can involve the sperm donor as a father, but she should be required to obtain his consent before he becomes a legal father. That way, accidental pregnancies don't obligate anyone to anyone else.

The pregnancy should only go forward if you both want it. Both sides should get a veto. Men shouldn't be able to veto anything about a woman's body. She just shouldn't be able to force him into legal Parenthood.

It depends, sometimes people just want to go their own way afterwards, sometimes you turn into fuck buddies or a friends with benefits type of thing, sometimes you might end up dating. Most of my hookups came from first or second dates where I was open to getting into more if I liked the person. A sex worker may enjoy your companionship more than a hookup. There may be greater energy between you and a sex worker. And the waitress may laugh at your jokes more than your friends do.

To me the difference is that you pay the sex worker to "care". There's no other reason she's there with you. It's not to have a good time, it's not because she enjoys your company, it's because she gets paid. I also don't see going on a date as a strictly transactional I pay for you, you whore yourself out to me type of deal. A lot of times my dates and I go dutch. If we end up in bed, it's because we wanted to be there on all accounts.

I like hookups, but you can't get emotional intamacy out of them. Even with hookups, there's a degree of connection because you're not going to hook up with someome you're not into. Sex as a service doesn't appeal to me largely because it provides none of that. (Although I do support sex work being legalized as there's no good reason not to.)

Socialism requires centralised distributive power.

We, as men’s rights advocates, need to vehemently support women’s right to choose. I believe that this is not only the right thing to do for a woman’s perspective, but also for a man’s perspective. I wholeheartedly agree. I am conflicted about throwing support bejond, say, a Roe V. Wade push which will once again entirely exclude men, however. (I have messaged several organizations to ask about volunteering if they would also push for a man's right to choose parenthood, but no takers so far.) I …

We sit here and beg for women to have consequences for poor decisions and yet will defend a man for an equally stupid choice and argue it should have been consequence free. I absolutely don't. I argue for each party to be responsible for the decisions they independently make. Since women can freely choose whether to be parents, men should also have that choice.

You're victim blaming. If it's her body and her choice, as it should be, it's also her responsibility. It's (rightly) considered an outragous to tell a woman if she has sex she must become a parent, or if she was "baby trapped", and the same people will look at men and say they deserved it.

The clit and penis both (sort of) form from the same tissue. The clitoris becomes engorged similar to how the penis does during arousal, and this is how both become "erect." Rarely a woman may have a very large clitoris, and the effect on these is more noticeable/more visually similar to a penis getting an erection. So yeah, a clitoris is kind of like a tiny dick with all the nerve endings right on the bud. (Except that it also is a rather large organ that has a lot of surface area internally an…

I do not consider sterilization a valid birth control option for general purposes. Can you imagine telling women that they could wrap it or sterilize themselves if they didn't want a kid? A vasectomy is also considered a permanent procedure. Many will not be able to reverse it. It should be an option to those who want it, but should not be held up as an alternative on the level of condoms and pills and IUDs.

With the amount of contraceptive options out there, Note that out of all of those methods, there is still exactly 1 option for men, despite experimental male, nonhormonal BCs showing as much or more effectiveness than an IUD, with no side effects.

While you have to take this with a grain of salt because evolutionary psychology technically isn't really falsifiable, there's some good arguments for male/female differences and there's virtually no leading researcher in the field that doesn't acknowledge differences between sexes. *1 For instance, humans are a k-selected species, and as such, we have meeting strategies that tend to relate to that. These mating strategies differ depending on the sex you are within that species, and tend to have…

If your “right” requires the action of others, think compelled speech or healthcare, then it is not a right. Almost everything requires the compelled actions of others at some point. The biggest point of laws is to compel compliance in (hopefully) a socially agreeable and fair manner. I'm not sure what rights or privileges you're referring to, but that I don't think you're premise is a good foundation to build the argument on.

Nothing wrong with whistling. Over dramatic nonsense as long as thats all it is. And it usually is. Why would you though? It makes a lot of women very uncomfortable, and when random, people you aren't attracted to tell you in one way or another that they you're a fuckable piece of meat, it gets old REAL fast. The women who say you shouldn't approach women anywhere are obviously ridiculous, but I think women deserve a life where they aren't constantly hassled in one way or another.

I do agree with alimony in cases when a couple divides labor where one partner works outside the home and the other works as a homemaker. The article stated that she wasn't allowed to even see the financials, which seems to be a red flag. I want to say that it's absolutely ridiculous to then pay her for housework under this arrangement, but perhaps it's one of those legal things where there is actually a good reason to give her the money (e.g. - if she was abused or deprived financially), and th…

I empathize with your situation, and I want you to know that it's a really tough position to be in, and that I'm truly not trying to be an ass saying this. Men don't have uteruses. You're saying that #1: women should have the additional choice to abort, but also to bind men unwillfully to them, legally and financially, for a consensual act. #2 That abortion is difficult and emotionally trying and women feel the effects, and thus women should have that extra choice at the cost of his.

When feminists argue for men paying child support without consenting to a child they say he knew the risks when he had sex ie- sex is consent to a child. This isn't true of course, and they argue that it is somehow false equivalence for women It's still not good, but the best argument I've heard for that is that she gets to decide to what she wants with her body, and that means that there might be a child, and if there is, then you are obligated to the child and its well-being, not to her.

The whole cause of so many problems in society exist entirely because people foolishly separate sex from its purpose of reproduction. No, no, no they aren't. Life has gotten SO much better since people were reliably able to plan families. Sex is also a critical BONDING activity, and having to contend with the stress that every time you do it there's a possibility you're stuck with an 18-year burden and irreversible damage to your body and or finances can really put stress on that.

The system that we have in North America (where abortion is legal/decriminalized) encompasses a few factors[...] 2. As soon as a woman chooses to keep a pregnancy, the welfare of the child becomes a priority over the parents in the eyes of the court. This is why it is so difficult for men to walk away. As soon as a mother-to-be gives birth, that baby comes first. And ultimately, with exceptions, two incomes and more adult role models benefit a child more than one of each. If I take your points c…

Gotchya. Yeah, makeup sex is when you have sex after you make up with (typically) your partner after a fight or disagreement or something.

No, the woman has FULL decision of what happens to the baby, whether she aborts it or keeps it.

You found out that the couple lied and aren't who they said they are. You filed for paternity and involvement before you knew that she did the same. Before I try and mentally untangle this, is that an accurate summary u/bnhncnyc?

It really depends on the situation, although that's the biggest factor.

I do believe that would cause many men to lose out on relationships with wanted children. It's not really about whether men lose out in relationships with wanted children, it's about fairness and equality as much as we can make it.

Essentially, if we allow men to abdicate their paternal rights and responsibilities, they are able to completely disentangle themselves with both the child and the mother. However, this creates the potential for the disparity where a woman's choice to bear a child necessarily entangles her with a man.

In terms of the kid being born - once the woman is pregnant unless she wants to abort or the pregnancy terminates early - you should have to support the thing you helped bring into the world.

I would also believe that some of those harsh comments are bourn of an insecurity if they were unable to provide.

do you think you still have a responsibility to care for the child I.E child support even if your not with the mother anymore I think men should have a choice when it comes to being a parent for the same amount of time a woman can get an abortion, and that being a father should be an opt-in, not and opt-out.

After birth, the course of action is less clear, she said, but lawyers advise that the child is to be considered the patient, whose needs trump those of the parents.

Excluding came as a natural consequence of life being tough and women not being very good at things. It's hard to be good at things when you're busy pumping out children because there was no birth control and so many died, and you weren't given the same educational opportunities.

I'll give you that. My contention would be that condoms are much easier to use properly and reliably than the pull-out method, and therefore you can get significantly more consistent results. You can learn how to use your condoms properly, but your penis isn't under your direct control or sensation, so I doubt you can achieve the same precision with consistency.

I always considered myself pro-choice. I might have misunderstood you. By the time you at taking a pregnancy test and it coming back positive. Yeah at that point your dealing with another independent life form. I thought you were saying by the time a pregnancy test comes back positive you're dealing with an independant life and can't abort. And the pregnancy test can come back positive as early as 10 days after conception.

We would have a difference in assumptions. I don't consider the fetus having any say whatsoever, and as you might have guessed, I believe in bodily autonomy. Before the second trimester*, I see the fetus the same as a body on life support. The brain stem can react to stimuli, but the lights aren't on. Both are "human," however, in either both cases yous may "pull the plug" without guilt or harming a "person." I think there's a discussion to be had on when the fetus gains personhood, probably bei…

Abortion should be mandatory without the husband's consent. If you can force a woman to do things with her body, then you can certainly force a man's pockets. If she carries to term, he just doesn't have the obligation to her or the child should he not want it.

you brought them to this world. No I did not. It's often made very clear that HER body did that, and it should be HER choice. And for some reason, if men have to pay for her choice is also up to her. "My body, my choice." correct, but also: "Your choice, your responsibility."

Women should always have the right to decide what to do with the fetus--to grow it or delete it. However, men should always have the right to decide if they will support the child. (and once either choice is made, put it on paper and it's final.)

Why do you continue to use the word "abandon?" You cannot abandon something for which you never took responsibility. By saying men abandon children, you're implicitly stating that men have some sort of responsibility to care for, tend to, and/or financially support an incidence of procreation they never desired.

While that's...horrifying, it would be a case where one has to assume responsibility for periodically checking or assuming risk. Biology isn't totally fair, which is why women get the unilateral choice whether to abort or not, regardless of her partner's wishes. At the same time, they assume the personal responsibility for consented, informed risk which is uniquely theirs. I would also like to see contraceptives and tests made easily and cheaply available.

they should be accessible for all men as it’s the closest option available to saying “no I am not in a position to afford this right now (which is valid for women, so should be valid for men)”. What's wild is that abortion rights are NOT based on bodily autonomy. So don't let people use that argument on you. Instead they are now based on a concept known as "undue burden."

Wouldn't it be much easier and mmore accurate to argue that the patriarchy is harming men just as much as, and perhaps now more than, women, and that we have ignored this and lumped the average and disadvantaged men wrongly into the patriarchy?
