I FINALLY BELIEVE, IT IS THE WOMAN’S SOLE RIGHT TO CHOOSE..
For me, it came down to a matter of nature, and fairness. I thought it through, and in doing so, I made sure that I really thought it all the way through..
After all of my many years of standing on the sidelines and observing, as was what I have been instructed to do, as a man, I have concluded that it should be the ultimate decision of the woman to decide whether she should be a mother..
In balancing, deliberating, and reasoning, there was but one undeniable truth, if it was the genius of our reproductive system, and the female of our species was chosen by design, biologically, to bear the burden of child creation, she alone should carry the decision of whether she wishes to reproduce. As such, she alone carries the burden of who should be the sperm donor, where and when the reproductive act should transpire. FAIR, and EQUITABLE, RIGHT?
We all know, or at least we should take a great deal more into consideration before and after making that decision, about how important it is in choosing to have a child or children, how that child will be raised. But one step at a time..
Can we agree that the choice of becoming a mother carries more than a simple yes or no. Far be it for me to interfere with the dynamics that should be considered in a woman’s priority process, but the requirements in that decision, by nature and necessity, is how and why to choose the potential male donor, for a milieu of reasons. By carrying the SOLE access to the starting point of reproduction, also carries the sole responsibility for the results of that decision, the wellbeing of the resulting baby..
Assuming we are all on the same page, the donor (THE MALE OF THE SPECIES) has a limited, but vitally important contribution in the process, the seed, or sperm. The donor, has decisions to make as well, first and foremost, does he agree with her choice of him as the contributor, and her choice of where and when, and even in some cases, with all of the new technologies, how..
As a summary, how many choices are involved in the decision to reproduce for the woman; • Do I want to reproduce, or will the act be for some other reason that I should take the risk? • What are the criteria for choosing a potential mate, or participant? • Who will be the contributor, or partner, for whatever reason? • What planning, or precautions, if any, should be required before the act? • When and where the act should take place? • What will I do if the act has produced the intended results, a child? • What if the planning went awry and there are unintended consequences? • What if I become pregnant, who else should suffer the resulting consequences? • Are there any limitations on my decisions? • What if I didn’t plan, what are my responsibilities? • What is my last resort?
As we have outlined, there are a list of choices that a woman has with her reproductive activities, and natural tools to consider, all of which she has the ultimate choice to advance, or reject along the way. With all of these options, who should be responsible for her decisions, other than the one that made them?
So, since I had no choice, no rights to contribute to her decisions, and, unless I was the contributor to the act, leave me or anyone else that were forced out the resulting process, out f the problems, RIGHT?
GOOD LUCK, AND GOD BLESS
A man..
Carlos ... I love you, man. But. No.
Abortion is murder. Your article says a woman may murder her baby.
Just. No.
I’m SO in favor of adoption, but I believe he meant conception, and I know I did.
chef carlo appears to have written that due to felt pressure from some quarter..
Yeah, some man, eh? The author sounds more like a child, a whiny boy, to me. Real men take responsibility for their actions.
In regards to the right of a woman to choose what to do with her body, I agree. The choices to have sex and use birth control should be hers alone. However, that new life in her womb (should one be conceived) is not part of her body. It’s a life in its own right and should have the right to live.
And if their right is solely theirs and I mere donor in the process then I have no obligation to them or anything they Xerox in their zeal to fulfill a reproductive desire.
Thus far, I have escaped that trap.
/S
I almost thought is was an opus but, it’s not...
Perfect. Says it all.
I’m pretty sure it’s called sarcasm. Not everyone likes to use a sarcasm tag.
It’s human life, carlo3b. Any thought less is it’s destruction. There’s a name for that.
when I first so the title, I thought he meant her right to choose her healthcare.
I sincerely pray you are not ok with abortion here.
Corporately we must deal with the consequences of pregnancies because innocent human life is at stake. We should speak and act in a manner that treats innocent human life with the highest respect possible. The means it is in our interest to exercise self-control, while rebuking those who despise it. Much more should be done to encourage young adults to behave responsibly and to weather the consequences if they do not. In no case, however, should counsel and aid mitigate against innocent human life.
You didn’t get yours in the mail?????

Yes, she should either choose to keep and nurture the baby or give it up for adoption, only God should choose whether it dies or not.
After conception:No Choice
I have always enjoyed you posts, but todays is ambiguous.
Almost incoherent. In a class, I’d give it an ‘D-’.
