Reply #312: But a woman can renounce her financial obligations to the child... [View All]

[Devils Advocate NZ]

so why not men? That my friend is sexism, whether you want to admit it or not. Women have an "out" every step of the way. They can refuse to have sex, they can abort the baby, and they can adopt out the baby once it is born.

Men on the other hand have only the first choice, refuse to have sex.

I propose that men should be given the choice to accept or reject the baby before it is born, and thereby renounce their obligations to the child. At that point the woman can either abort the baby, or adopt the baby out once it is born, and thus have the same rights as the man in terms of financial obligations.

She does get one extra right though: the right to abort the baby regardless of the fathers wishes.
