2	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me This is exactly what the debate hinges on. You have to believe that the mother has entered into a contract with the unborn child (where the unborn is entitled to the mother's womb for approximately nine months among other things), simply by conceiving them in order to be pro-life. It's a little ludicrous to think that sex (since even "protected" sex can result in pregnancy) has some sort of implied contact with a being that doesn't even exist yet...	/r/MensRights	27/01/14 11:44 PM
1	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me Trespassers don't have to break in. They could have been invited in the first place. In my initial response, I talk about "your picture" though you seem to have forgotten already. Also, sperm aren't necessarily invited into the womb. Sometimes women take a lot of precautions to not get pregnant and still end up getting pregnant. edit: the generalized analogy is closer to someone stumbling onto someone else's property unknowingly and then being expelled from said property (to what is now certain …	/r/MensRights	27/01/14 11:19 PM
1	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me There are differences between what's morally obligatory and morally praiseworthy. Using the word "right" in two different ways is cute in the literary sense, but misleading if we're trying to logically evaluate arguments. I'm also not suggesting that women who get abortions should be immune from criticism. I'm merely suggesting that abortions should not be illegal.	/r/MensRights	27/01/14 10:31 PM
1	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me You can use either picture. My points still stand. Malice isn't a requirement. Stop straw-manning.	/r/MensRights	27/01/14 10:29 PM
1	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me Ah, but removing the person in this case would kill them. Bringing in a professional assassin copdoctor ('coptor?) to knowingly drag them into death is no more defensible than killing them yourself. Yes, it's unfortunate that they will die and eventually science will remedy that; however, morally, you're not obligated to render resources onto another being unless you sign a legitimate contract that explicitly states that. Stated differently, the new being is not entitled to the mother's womb for…	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 10:59 PM
2	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me More like you'd bring in a third party to remove the "trespasser" in those cases. In the case of an unborn baby, this would be a doctor. In the case of a trespasser, it'd probably be the police... Your rhetoric is nice though. Gotta admire the picture you paint with that coat hanger.	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 10:35 AM
1	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me That's less about whether or not you are pro-choice, though, and more about most of society thinking men should be on the hook regardless of ones stance on abortion. Yes, I agree. The title is misleading likely due to lack of better words to describe the group of people who don't want to support male reproductive rights.	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 04:23 AM
5	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me You should be allowed to expel them though... You don't have any moral obligation to a trespasser. It's morally praiseworthy to not expel them into certain death, but not morally obligatory. EDIT: It's too much to ask for someone to carry a child to term that they don't want, yes. It's her body, she has a right to decide how her property (in the case, her body) is utilized. She doesn't have a right to decide how someone else's property is utilized; in this case, her sexual partner's assets/money…	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 04:18 AM
4	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me Being pro-choice doesn't necessarily mean you are also okay with screwing dads or don't also support male reproductive rights. I think that the percentage of people who don't believe in the double standard is pretty low within most of the West...	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 04:16 AM
4	This double standard on "Pro-Choice" has always bugged me I think you're downplaying the "inconvenience" of pregnancy... It's not just an inconvenience, there's another being living within her body, using her resources. She has the right to expel that being from her body even if it will mean certain death for that being. Imagine if someone was trespassing on your property. Imagine you may have invited this person in the first place, but now you want them gone. You don't have any obligation to their well-being, so you should be allowed to expel them fro…	/r/MensRights	26/01/14 04:14 AM
0	I am a divorce lawyer, AMA I also believe that 16 year olds dont always know what is best for them. As long as we're talking in generalities, I don't think that anyone always knows what is best for them. People (generally) do the best they can with the information they have along with what they've learned over their respective lifetimes. That said, do you truly believe that a 16 year old who grew up with both parents is always going to be less able to properly choose a parent than a judge who may not spend more than a few…	/r/MensRights	24/06/13 01:10 AM
