59. So because biology works the way it does,
men should have no say so, only monetary responsibility. The women don't have to have any responsibility whatsoever. Men alone are legally responsible for their actions. I support a woman's right to choose, but its thinking like this that bothers me. A friend of mine went through a divorce recently. His wife stayed out at night carousing and had an affair while he was the primary care giver of his children (before the divorce). When he filed for divorce and requested custody, the court made him go through psychological testing (because men aren't supposed to want their children). They awarded the children to the mother and he could keep them every two weeks for a week. Later, because he suspected neglect, he sought custody again. The court then reduced his time with his children even further. To me, this kind of thinking is not fair and probably based on the same kind of thinking as it relates to men should have no say.
