Bad law. It'll be destroyed in court.

I posted this elsewhere.

"I'm an MRA, but I oppose this 100%, and other MRA do too.

I support abortion rights for everyone (in men's case fincial abortion or paper abortion).

While feminists worried about wolf whistling, mansplaining, manspreading, as the great crimes against women, their right to choose was being stripped from them by traditionalists.

Thankfully MRAs (most of whom as far as I can tell are also WRAs when a real issue arises) is here to fight back against Traditionalists, attacks on human rights.

I'll be creating a petitition in support of gender neutral Abortion rights in the coming days."

None of the typical pro-choice or pro-life philosophical arguments can be made about this, this is simply a half assed attempted to prevent abortion. Dragging down the rights of women to match those of men isn't progress.

It's about time men got some semblance of reproductive rights.

That sounds awful. Rather, men should be allowed the opportunity to avoid parenting, financially and otherwise, a child they don't want (until birth, or until they first learn of it after birth).

And men shouldn't have to remain married to a woman intent on having a child.

Good. Normally I would be against this type of thing but I believe depriving women of choice will instigate empathy for the choices men have been deprived of.

I will gladly try to get their freedom back if they will back a "freedom for all" instead of "freedom for us" approach.

It does no such thing. The purpose of this law is clearly to ban abortions using "dismemberment method", which I assume is a necessary method once solid organs and bones have begun to form, and not a law that would allow men to dictate to women whether they can have an abortion. There's language in the law to specifically indemnify any woman who participates in a 'dismemberment abortion' and target the doctor.

The law does makes it possible for husbands to sue the doctors who perform such procedures and get some moderate recompense.

Stupid law is stupid. HuffPo is still cancer.
