See, notice how you think this is obvious, yet you've never heard of it. Why is that? Democrats fight for abortion, republicans fight against it mostly. But have both sides even mentioned this? How many billions of dollars go into fighting to protect female bodily rights that they have now, yet not a penny for the ones men still don't have?

This sub often gets anonymous writings from men who from some form of mistake got a girl pregnant, either carelessness or she purposefully lied about birth control.

Mention this to anyone else, I dare you. Instantly they will say "well that dumb oaf should pull out lolol". As if it's that simple.

A nurse gives a doctor a blowjob, she then extracts his semen and impregnates herself with it. He had to pay child support, he's now legally a father.

Here a boy who was raped was forced to pay child support, because his rapist became pregnant

Does anyone really care about this blatant legal issue besides some MRA's on the Internet?

The closest thing I've seen is this debate.

Summary: a man goes on Oprah with his ex, he claims she lied about birth control and he was forced to be a financial dad, and he thinks that's unfair. An MRA and feminist lawyer start debating.

Key notes

the guy explains he was an pro choice activist in his younger years. Isn't that ironic? This man spent his time fighting for the rights of all the women there, and he didn't even take a second to realize he had none?
crowd mocks and laughs at him, use the exact same arguments pro lifers used against them
MRA points out at the end their blatant hypocrisy, and how men as a group may end up retracting female bodily rights if they refuse to let men have them. What he failed to realize is that men as a group don't even look out for their own legal rights.

Amazing. Can't believe that no one else has ever thought of that before.

This exact topic was brought up on the Young Turks. It's a fantastic idea. As men, we give up the right to be involved in the child's life, in return we don't pay child support. https://youtu.be/n-YXWKvZRUs

I can't help but single out the point of "We shouldn't have the right to abort a woman's baby."

So a woman can't abort a baby, but a guy can refuse child support?
