re: Reproductive Rights Discussion - Men get a raw deal

quote:

If a woman can terminate her pregnancy because she can't be bothered, a man should be able to terminate his financial duty to the child, because he can't be bothered.

Millions of men do just that every year...and nothing is done about it. Fathers walk out on their responsibilities all the time and the number who are ever held accountable is disgustingly small.....you ain't gonna get a majority of men to agree to your POV when they realize that their child support payments aren't nearly enough to actually support their kids and the state is actually going to aggressively pursue dead beat dads.

And don't even pretend that anecdotal evidence like "I know a guy who went to jail" is in any way, shape, form or fashion more meaningful than the data that supports the number of "men" (I use that term loosely because a male person who fathers a child and does not support that child is not a man in any meaning of the word) who father children without a care in the world as to how that child is going to be housed, fed and nurtured.....
