I do feel like this is kind of a stupid response, why aren’t men allowed to make mistakes in dating? I personally would’ve never fucked a pro life girl, but depending on the culture of his parents and his town this could’ve been the only sort of ideology he was used to and didn’t look down the barrel of reality cuz he gained the ability to consent.
The concept of child support works off the basis of accountability If the man has no say in if the woman has a child or not then it means that he cannot realistically be held accountable for paying for the child if it is birthed since a person ultimately only carries obligation towards the effects of their choices. If you choose to have a child then you are accountable, but he is not choosing in this case. He is providing the means to make the child, but the choice lays upon the woman
No uterus = no opinion because it’s her choice to go through the trauma of pregnancy and childbirth not his. If he bails he’s the AH and if he tries to force her to have an abortion he is also the AH. It’s her body and her life. It does take 2 to create a life but his work is done for the next 9 months. The only decision he has to make is whether he’s willing to step up and be a father even if he breaks up with her. It’s her choice to have an abortion because it’s her body and her uterus.
Legally he is responsible for the child obviously however he has absolutely no say in what she can do with her body just like she cant force him to marry her he cant force her to get an abortion If she doesnt believe in abortion and is willing to sacrifice everything thats her choice He doesnt have to give up everything if he doesnt want to but he still has a responsibility for the child because he didn’t wrap his dick It was his choice to not wear a condom and now it’s her choice to keep it
Yes, but I am saying that the logic doesn’t make sense. I am aware the legal system works this way. I am saying that the concept of child support works off the basis that the man is part of the choice of getting pregnant and now has to take accountability for his choices. If the pregnancy is entirely the woman’s choice and the man has no say in it because it is her body then it logically follows that he should not have to pay child support.
Ok so in this situation we are working off the assumption the fetus has no human value right? It is just the equivalent of being part of the woman’s body? So if this is the case it then follows that the choice that is either bringing the child into existence or not doing that is ultimately in the woman’s hands with abortion. If the father wants an abortion and the woman chooses not to it logically follows that the father only brought forth the needs in order to bring about the child but is not
it does though. the woman will literally have to take accountability for the baby as well. but when it comes to birthing a child (experiencing a bodily trauma) it should only be up to her in the end. yes, the man can weigh in, YES the woman should consider what he says, but at the end it is her body. Ignore the legalities. when the child comes out it is no longer a matter of bodily autonomy as I stated before. that is literally why.
honestly applies to both birthing or aborting as both are traumatizing. you should not force either option on someone. so this would apply to the woman wanting to keep the baby rather than aborting. an abortion is traumatic. so yes, the man cannot force an abortion and yes he is at least SOMEWHAT responsible for it. hence child support
I never said force birth on anyone. However yea an 18 year old kid knows to put a condom on. I was having sex at 14 as a female and I was on birth control and if I had gotten pregnant I would’ve kept it but I have had friend that have had abortions and supported them in their teenage years
No. People need to pay for the children they bring in the world. Women pay child support if men are the primary custodial parents. Men pay child support if they refuse to step up. It’s fair. Don’t want ur partner to keep a baby? Wear a condom and use spermicide. Do what YOU can to prevent pregnancy.
I’m very democratic and I’ve already said that I’m pro choice but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to have an abortion. Someone could’ve voted for Kamala and never want an abortion while their boyfriend is conservative but wants her on birth control. Just because you have certain political views doesn’t negate whether or not somebody’s gonna get pregnant or what they’ll do with the fetus.
Court system will not agree with OP, but you should. Men should not have the choice to birth or abort a baby, but they SHOULD have the choice to raise/support it. If I didn’t want a baby, took precautions to not have a baby, and a girl still gets pregnant & decides to go through with it, I should not be forced into child support/marriage/etc.
