1. Women need to be able to sue men for the life costs of unwanted pregnancies.
Fri Sep 3, 2021, 01:33 PM
Sep 2021

If a woman establishes that she does not want to get pregnant and a person causes her to become pregnant she should have the right to sue in civil court for damages to her life plan,not just for child support.

As a person under our constitution every woman is entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

A woman or lies about a vasectomy or in any way forces a woman to have unprotected sex sure.

But if a woman voluntarily allows a man to ejaculate inside her with full knowledge and consent then no.

The choice for an abortion is different. It isn't about responsibility for the pregnancy it's about a woman's right to make decisions about her body without encumbrance.

Actually the constitution gives those rights only to men. And this Supreme Court is doing everything they can to make sure that's the way it stays.

When I was a teenager, if you would have inspected my bedroom with a blacklight, it would have looked like a Jackson Pollack painting.

But I learned that if I did that inside a woman's vagina, there was a possibility of creating a baby. When I was a teenager, the last thing I wanted was to create a baby. Hell, life was just getting started, and being a daddy didn't fit the road map I had planned for myself.

I was brought up to take responsibility for my actions, so if I had created a baby I would always have taken responsibility for my part in that.

I learned to always "wrap that rascal", even when told by my partner that she was taking birth control pills/devices. That was my responsibility.

Many men won't do that, and that's because they weren't brought up correctly, or they just don't care. Men have to cut that shit out, because it's not the sole responsibility of the woman. Ever.

I do think, there are plenty of men that are stupid enough to need these actual instructions, however.

Posted it as a dead-serious pissed off at Texas indictment. If it was up to me any women getting turned in for an abortion should have the man impregnating her be forced to have a vasectomy and pay the 10K, not the state.

I'm with you 100%

It is all cold hard facts... Simple ones... Ones everyone knows to be true. When the time comes such things need be said aloud, you can only laugh or cry. Sometimes you cry... And sometimes you laugh. Sometimes it is ok if you have to laugh

and that is exactly what they are doing in texas--instead of bothering with any other pesky advice such as "control your boner" and "do not ejaculate into a vagina"

(thanks for posting this btw)

Racism is still a problem after how many decades of attempts to root it out of the human psyche? Misogyny is going to be an even more painful eradication process.

wearily,

Free birth control has been proven to radical reduce unwanted pregnancies. It is also an very inexpensive solution.

There was one of these crazy movies when he - Ben Stiller? - ended up with something on his hair.

When he came to the date she - Cameron Diaz? - wondered whether this was a hair mousse and grabbed some for her own hair..
