“If mothers are optional, even disposable, what about fathers?”

According to the Communists, we’re ALL cannon fodder. WEll, except for THEM of course!

They have made AMAZING inroads, have they not?

*SPIT*

Every single one of these perversions, including artificial reproduction, was ideologically enabled by contraception.

The underlying assumption shared by all: sex can be broken up into its component parts, and then reconfigured into any permutation or combination that gratifies me.

Autonomy! Mr-Potato-Head: our model for living.

Bingo. In sorry but any 47 year old CEO can find a women that wants his kids. Something else was at play there.

You don’t need to judge “the man” as to his subjective motivations, his state of grace or his eternal destiny, but you can and should judge his objective acts.

He has objectively created a half-orphan as a laboratory product and a commodity in a commercial transaction. From the git-go he decided and planned to derive the child of natural rights: not by chance, but by choice.

His subjective yearnings notwithstanding, he has nevertheless objectively treated the baby boy, from conception, not as a child but as a lifestyle accessory, an expensive hobby, or a valuable pet.

If it were normal and natural it wouldn’t be a news story.

I think I have about had it with all the fake stuff. People can prop up these perversions all day long, but at the end of the day little Joseph still has no mommy to hold him and love him and want him.

Nobody bothered to be concerned about that little detail. Abandonment even before conception.. just part of the process.

If he wants to be a father, he can become one to a child who already needs one.

Yeah, he's got some nerve wanting to have children of his own!/s

Sheesh, give me a break. I don't have kids, but if I were blessed to get married, I'd like a crack at having my own biological children first, rather than settling for someone else's kids right off the bat. I don't think that's asking too much.

“...at the end of they little Joseph still has no mommy ...””
***************************************************************
Well, at the end of the day, little 11-month old Joseph is ALIVE with a LOVING FATHER. You resent that baby’s life — you resent his very existence and would prefer that he had never been born. IMHO, he is one of God’s children. There are worse things in life than having a child being raised by a loving single parent -— far worse things.

By the way, in addition to being raised by a loving father who went to extraordinary efforts to bring him in to existence, I suspect that you won’t have to pay for welfare benefits for Joseph.

Joseph’s father CHOSE LIFE.

Exactly. One thing that struck me, is that a lot of people have sympathy for this single man’s deep yearning to have his “own, biological” child.

Granted. But did he never stop to think that the child would have a deep yearning to have his own, biological mother?

Children needs are as nothing, when put up against the demands of a grown man with money.

Giving men the same reproductive rights that women have now is the only way to change any of it. Women have just gotten more and more power and if nothing is done to reverse it it wil continue to get worse and nothing stops the current freight train.

They do not care its uneven and they are glad it is, they say they are the victims yet have all the reproductive power and just want more. They have no empathy and know they have all the power, hence they do not wat men to have any, much less as much as they enjoy now.

A woman would just take his money, house, and kid away in a divorce.

This is today’s America.

I can understand why he went this route.

They are working on a male birth control pill. I wish they could get that working ASAP.

The first groups that will come out against it when it becomes reality, and it will, will be womens groups.

Reproductive rights? You mean reproductive wrongs. And no, increasing and equalizing the wrongs so that bad men can be as bad as bad women, is not “the only way to change things.”

Equal help for equal hubris.

Is that good news for the children?

That’s “equal hell for equal hubris.”

Damn autocorrect.

Why does he need his sperm? $20k for an egg donor? Why not just use a surrogate and an unwanted embryo already in cold storage from a family with a surfeit of extras? I did. And have a beautiful daughter. I did it with a husband who ditched us, but still, there are thousands of beautiful children at the embryo stage just needing a chance to develop and be.

I’m not going to judge the guy since I’m not walking in his shoes

The problem is that we have no basis for real judgement, because we know that biased, progressive, statist media will omit or massage any facts to push a particular narrative. I feel intelligent Americans now must read the news exactly as soviet citizens read Pravda 40 years ago - what isn't the article saying? What point of view is being pushed? What's the political or social agenda being promoted? And one certainly CAN judge that

Congratulations, you’ve made a choice that was yours to make and brought a lovely child into the world. I commend you for it. He made a choice that was of a manner that differed from yours but it was HIS choice. And he brought a lovely child into this world also. And as I commend you, I also commend him.

God bless you & your daughter.

what kind of a mother doesn’t want her grandchildren to have a traditional mother, woman in their lives? Why would a man want to omit a true mother to his children?

These people are their own gods.

IVF, artificial wombs, surrogate “motherhood” are all abominations. Either adopt or go without.

In no way was I condemning him for his choice. I agree with you. I don’t have the desire to control how other people live, if they aren’t hurting others.
