"Sex is consent to parenthood for the male, but not necessarily for the female"

I like how feminist rage at such an idea of legal paternal surrender as if somehow men are equal to women having to endure the financial consequences of an unwanted pregnancy carried to term by a selfish woman.

The thing that interests me is the feminist assertion is that an unequal social situation is acceptable for men because of biology.

I can't imagine there'd be feminist support for any argument that had biology as the mitigating factor for allowing similar inequality toward women.

That quote up there IS third-wave feminism.

I love the way the biological fact of gestation translates into being able to avoid telling the father about the existence of the child, and then give it up for adoption after the child is already born.

Completely logical argument there.

Let's be clear about this: the underlying issue here isn't biological. It is the fact that legal paternity is contingent on the choices of the mother. This is a legal thing that could quite easily be changed. At the moment, if a woman decides not to inform anyone about the pregnancy, the child legally has no father. If the woman decides to name someone as the father, that man is legally the father until he can prove otherwise. There have been countless cases of men who didn't even know they were a father until they get tapped up for money. That is disgraceful, and it needs to stop.

Interesting how feminists and SJW's don't really have an answer to male parental abdication. You can't refute it without inadvertantly refuting abortion too.

Linked author is simply describing legal reality, not passing judgement on it.

Get the law changed, don't attack the person warning people that the law is fubar.

GOOD FUCKING NEWS LADS:

The feminists have discovered a wonderful new concept of consent: "Conditional Consent". Their child-like examples include "But he said he was a doctor so I slept with him! Now I find out he's just an average loser!? He tricked me into sex, so therefore rape".

As always, it takes a man to discover the true versatility and power behind a concept. I only consent to sex with women on condition that they do not carry any resultant child to term. Once that's agreed, we can do the nasty. The whole reason I ever consented to the sex in the first place is because she agreed to terminate any unfortunate pregnancies that may develop. But now she's knocked up, and she's decided to break her word and keep it? Holy fuckballs, I've been raped!

And how would you propose a law to remove consent after she gets pregnant ? especially if she wants the kid.
