Having read this rather click-baity screed from a few months back, I couldn't help but notice the rabid hamstering. Littered throughout with blame-shifting and denial of one's own choices, I surmised that the overwhelming jist of the article is one that is quite familiar to those of the manosphere.
It is loaded with EXCUSES.
What struck me about this article is that in continually enables a woman's egocentric denial of accountability. While one can deny accountability all they want, with massive assistance from gynocentric society, when "the buck stops" women who "need" an abortion did get into that situation via their own choices.
Women get pregnant and they’re told they should’ve been on better birth control. Or they should’ve been sure the man was wearing a condom. Or they should’ve never “opened their legs” to begin with.
All of these criticisms are true. Hard Truths, perhaps, but truth nonetheless. A harrowing part of maturity is that at some point, one has to stop making excuses for themselves. Full-stop.
Regardless of brain-washing, indoctrination, beautiful lies and the insistence of others, each person simply is accountable for their choices. Man and woman alike.
The upside is that once somebody absorbs this truth, they can begin to stop making excuses for others, and gain a great deal of personal agency. Which is better for everyone, or so they say. A persons' actions have consequences, whether they (or society) acknowledge it or not.
The article contains many tangents and false assumptions, confusing the un-marketability of poorly developed male hormonal birth control (The Bro-Pill, continually opposed by the "National Organization of Women" and other feminist groups) with "protection" for men.
It also brings up pompous virtue-signaling legislation, proposed in response to abortion regulations, in yet more tired feminist grandstanding. While mandatory DNA paternity testing in-utero would likely be a good move for a lot of guys, it would never enforced. Statewide bans on vasectomies very surely would.
But primarily, this article simply serves to enable the continual projection of women's personal choices onto men. It is exactly the sort of tabloid dross that industrialized feminism requires to keep Social Justice Warriors from accepting responsibility.
