Women have the right to choose if they want to have a baby or not. If the man wants the baby and the woman doesn’t too bad homeboy it’s her body and you have no say over your baby’s existence. If the man doesn’t want the baby and the woman does too bad muchacho you have to pay child support for the next 18 years or even more if the kid goes to college and if you don’t pay you will be considered a deadbeat father and big brother will be hounding you for the rest of your life. You can be thrown in jail, have your license suspended, your car, house or any type of property taken away all because you knocked up some girl who forces you into fatherhood against your will.

Don’t you think this system is unfair? Shouldn’t men be able to choose to be or not to be fathers the same way women have a choice to be mothers? If your one of those people who say well it too bad you shouldn’t of had sex. Then why do women get the choice to have an abortion or an adoption? The man has absolutely no say in the matter. Women can even take their babies and drop them off at a hospital, police or fire station in most states and face no legal penalties. This is an unfair system and it affects poor men most of all who don’t have the money to pay child support. If you deposit your sperm in a test tube or vagina fatherhood should still be a choice for men the same way motherhood is a choice for woman.

Yes, it is quite sad that men can't force women to become pregnant or ignore the children they did not want in the first place. :rolleyes:

Its also sad women can be whores and then kill their unborn children. If you wan to think of it like that.

Don’t you think this system is unfair?

Not in the least, seeing as men lack uteri. And, no, it's not unfair that you can't force a woman to be pregnant or have an abortion. If you want to have control over your fatherhood, use a condom, or get a vasectomy, or find a parter whom you trust and who's on the pill.
