Women and other "Sensitive creatures" claim they want equal rights. If THEY have the legal right to abort a healthy fetus that poses no immediate physical threat to her,then THEY must ALSO recognize both the legal and the moral right of the man that helped create that fetus. If the male wants the child and the female doesn't,the old term "tough titty" comes into play. She is an adult and it was her responsibility to make the decision to not have sex with that man,or to have herself sterilized prior to having sex with him.
Of course,this is a two-way street. If the man doesn't want to have that child,it was HIS obligation,and no one else's,to have a vasectomy prior to having sex with her or any other female. Once again,the old "tough titty" law comes into play. He was an adult and he damn sure needs to be held responsible for his actions. Including the financial responsibilities to help pay for the medical care and the raising of the resulting child. If you ain't willing to accept your responsibility,get trimmed or keep it in your pants.
NO female human gets pregnant by herself except in cases of rape,so NO female human gets to decide what happens as a result of any non-rape sexual joining.
Finally,IMHO,there is an explicit implied contract between two adults having consensual sex to be responsible for any child that may result from that act. It does NOT mean they are required to marry and raise the child,or to even raise the child. There are plenty of couples and even single adults out there more than willing to adopt an infant,so neither the mother nor the father gets to whine about the "unfair burden of raising a child". You are both responsible for that child until it is born,and after that you can put it up for adoption,and go back to living your normal lives,hopefully having learned a lesson.
For those cases where the male and/or female are both sexually mature but still legally minors,once again the "tough titty" law applies. The only difference is the parents of both of those minors are financially responsible for the actions of their minor children,just like they are responsible for the financial obligations that occur if their children were to vandalize cars or neighbors houses. Anybody that ever promised you that life was always going to be easy and pleasant lied to you. Man/Woman up and accept your damn responsibilities!
And finally,for the religious loons,God did not create that baby,but if you really believe he did,then God should pay all the medical expenses related to bringing it to birth and raising it to become an adult. If you don't agree with this,STFU about things like the "morning after pill". Up to the point a fetus can survive outside the womb by breathing for itself and eating/drinking milk,it's not a child.It is a fetus and a POTENTIAL child. Of course,once that status is reached,there should be no abortions at all for any reason except in cases where the life of the mother is at actual risk if she carries to term,NOT "potential risk" or "emotional risk". You bought the ticket,you take the damn ride!
If this pleases those who read it,good! If it doesn't,I don't really give a rabid rats ass. Complain to someone else.
@sneakypete Agree with almost everything you say here. The exceptions:
1) I'm a religious loon by your definition, and I won't be shutting the blank up, so deal with that. (And I mean that in a general sense; I'm not going to try to turn the forum into a religion board, per management requests).
2) There is no such thing as a "potential" child. The unborn life in the womb is just that---unborn. It is still a baby. It isn't a fish, or a chicken, or a salamander, or a Reuben on rye that suddenly morphs into a child.
3")Women and other "Sensitive creatures" claim they want equal rights."------I've always had equal rights and I've always thought these women's protests were pointless and stupid. However, you use "sensitive creatures" in a deprecatory sense, and I want to correct you on that. As a woman, I'm naturally more sensitive and emotional than a man, and I embrace it. In fact, that's how it's meant to be, and it's one of the reasons men and women complement each other so beautifully.
Other than those points, you're right on target. This emotional and equal female wishes you a great day.
