It would also force men to be more responsible now that we have DNA proof of paternity.
Think about it. If men knew for a fact that they will be on the hook at least financially for 18 years for every child, do you not think there would be an increase in vasectomies and condom use ... as well as simply making better decisions about who to have sex with?
It takes two to conceive. I’ve had it with this never being pointed out.
Bingo. I'd love to hear a politician say this!
“It takes two to conceive. I’ve had it with this never being pointed out.”
DNA? You should know that men are held responsible everyday for kids where it is proven through DNA that the kid isn’t theirs.
Also as far as taking two, of course it does. But only women get a choice.
If a man says he doesn’t want ANY risk of being a parent, he is told “keep your pants zipped”.
If a woman says she doesn’t want ANY risk of being a parent, she is told she may abort. Completely up to her.
Bottom line, a woman is assumed to have a right to a sex life and still avoid the financial risk of parenthood. A man is told to be celibate or accept the consequences.
I see nothing wrong with women having to live with the same legal status men do.
I agree. Men are half of the equation. Making women the only person accountable is stupid, and wrong. Women are not receptacles for seminal fluids and a good time.
How about a moral decision in the beginning, if you think it is wrong, then why are you conducting yourself in such a fashion. I do not accept “boys will be boys” as an excuse. Men should be men, and responsible!
This legislator is a dolt.
FLAME AWAY!!
