I think personally that fiscal responsibility ought to fall on the mothers hands if said father chooses to not be a parent. This way women can still have control of their bodies and eliminates unjust monies being wrought from men via child support payments for a child he did not want.

In reality you can't force a woman to carry a child she does not want. It's a ridiculous stance .

The whole thread was remarkably free from knee-jerk man-hatred.

And as usual, chocoboat came in with the best and most humane comment in an already good thread.

Look, the reality is that not all feminists are bad, and not all feminist will fight against equality for men. Don't get me wrong, a lot of them are and a lot of them will (and have) but that shouldn't stop us from showing positive support for those few that try to do the right thing. If persons who calls themselves feminists wish to support us and choose not ti discriminate against men, we should embrace that. It's easy to stand up against your enemies, but it's really hard to stand up to your friends - so bravo to this feminist.

Its originally a feminist idea, Karen DeCrows quotes on it are brilliant.
