When men start having babies, then they can start making decisions on abortion?

Oh, jeez.

The actual physical abortion is something that can only be decided by the woman. Why? Because it's an intensive surgical operation that puts the woman's health at risk. If a man wants a woman to have a baby and she wants to abort it, guess what: her choice trumps his. Because biology isn't fair.

This is NOT to say that men should have no rights as to choosing whether or not they want to SUPPORT the child. You're arguing two different things. If the woman wants to keep a child that she KNOWS that the man doesn't want, then it's tough cookies for her.

Men have just as much a choice in abortion as women do in vasectomies. Want to do something productive? Talk about how the child support system should change, not the abortion system.

No matter how we might try abortion will always be a hot issue. I think it's a woman's right since bearing a child will have huge consequences in how she governs her life. That said, I also believe the very nature of abortion must do a number on their heads.

So i guess that means they don't want those government enforced child support payments then. Since men and women don't have babies, only women do. I'll be sitting here holding my breath waiting for women to rally against child support payments.

Are you suggesting men should be allowed to force women to abort? Are you suggesting men should be allowed to forbid women from aborting?

Unless its donor sperm, women cant create babies on their own. They need male sperm. So when women start creating sperm on their own, then they have sole decision making power on the topic of abortion.
