Dear Men, Abortion Is Not A Women’s Issue. We Have A Duty To Get Involved.

There are two facts about me that are quite evident to anyone who knows me: First, I am a man. Second, I am a man who has developed an opinion about abortion.

I am a man with an opinion about abortion. Even more shocking, I did not consult with the Feminist High Council before formulating my opinions. I did not check the rule book to make sure my man-opinions are within the spectrum of approved perspectives for someone of my anatomical persuasion. I did not fill out the forms requesting permission to publicly voice my unsanctioned beliefs, nor did I review the guidelines to determine the manner and extent to which they can be voiced.

Lord forgive me, I went off on my own and generated a point of view that, it turns out, directly defies the established orthodoxy. And, not satisfied to keep my rogue man-opinions to my man-self, I’ve gotten into the nasty habit of telling people about them. I might have gotten away with my man-thought crimes had I just kept my man-mouth shut, but it’s too late at this point.

What the heck is Beck talkin’ ‘bout...its not like Fathers have any single Planck length of legal standing to protect their own children in their mother’s womb from their mother.

She’ll kill them at the drop of the hat, and shout with pride of the murder or not even mention it to anyone...it is her choice. She’s been so conditioned, from elementary school onward.

1 in 3 in the US will kill at least one of their and the the father’s children, most likely more than one. The child’s father may or may not even be aware his children are being slaughtered and it doesn’t matter, in reality, whether he knows or not.

One of the perennial arguments against men having a say on the issue is the disproportionate burden that pregnancy and childrearing places on women.

I propose the following set of conditions that allow me to claim an equal share in the decision-making about abortion and other issues related to childbearing.
(1) I pledge to commit myself to the support and care of any woman who I put into a position of potentially bearing my child.
(2) I pledge to commit myself to the support and care of any child I might father.

Come to think of it, that sounds like a pretty good arrangement for creating lasting family bonds and raising children. They ought to have a name for that kind of arrangement.

Good for you. I told my husband that any woman who would abort his child is a woman he wants no part of. Remember birth control was going to fix unwanted pregnancy problems.

“Good for you. I told my husband that any woman who would abort his child is a woman he wants no part of.”

I’ve tried telling some of these younger men this, they don’t listen. They just say “well why doesn’t she....” They complain about everything from her having or not having the abortion to having to pay child support. That is why I tell them YOU must not have sex with her! DUH!

Although I agree with that image it’s also misleading. A lot of abortions women have are forced on them. Some by boyfriends/husbands. Some by family and friends. It’s not always the woman’s “choice”. Sad but true this whole “choice” thing is a sham.

Nope. A man cannot force an abortion. Call 911 if someone is trying to force it.

Yep they can, and they have.

It’s the old “it’s me or the kid” thing. It’s not always boyfriends who pull this, sometimes it’s husbands.

Then there are parents who force daughters to do this, sometimes the daughters are underage sometimes not.

Look up keywords “Forcedabortion” and “Forcedabortions” and read the articles I’ve posted.
