A ministry that helps these women who have had abortions

For the life of me, I cannot understand how a woman can
have a right to choose and a man cannot.
What right does she have to abort OUR baby, if it’s born
there is no doubt that the Man has a responsibliity to
it, the courts have constantly said so.

If the man decides for abortion and the woman refuses
he cannot force her under law.

Abortion is just wrong and by being unjust it creats
hurt for all involved.

Abortion is murder, 52 million strong.

Yep, you don't hear the feminazis worried too much about the man who loses a child because of the selfish decision of the women. In fact, I wish the pro-life movement would use this argument more often.

[Chickensoup]

this is one argument i do not buy unless the man is married to the woman. Otherwise he is just a spermdonor and has no right or issue here.

[mrsixpack36]

The man is “just a sperm donor”? So unless they are married, the man has no rights?? You kidding me? If a woman murdered MY child via abortion I would be devastated, married or not. You have just lowered men to a lesser status than woman, but that is typical of our society—and court system.

[Chickensoup]

If you are not married to the woman and you have sex with her you are a sperm donor. one of the great failures of western culture is the diminishment of marriage which has happened because people are given “rights” of marriage without the commitment.

Thanks, Kaslin. I see many men coming to the abortion clinics who don’t seem to have the fortitude to stand up to the mother of their baby and fight for the life of their child. Men do regret abortions. They just need to be more active in preventing them in the first place.

Thanks for the post.

Which sucks when the sperm donor decides to marry the woman only to find out she already aborted the baby. Have heard that story too many times.

Agreed that it stinks. But the sperm donor needs to keep his pants zipped. There is a responsibility there.

[Kaslin]

You are welcome

[mrsixpack36]

Women have the option of murdering a man’s child, and the man has no say. Marriage is important but really beside the point. It takes two to make a baby, yet only one is given any rights. What about the rights of the baby?

[Controlling Legal Authority]

So it is fine for the egg donor to abort, but not ok for the sperm donor to have a say in it?

[Controlling Legal Authority]

So only the egg donor should have a say?

Yes!!

I’ve been thinking that for awhile. We keep on focusing on the women, but neglect the fact that the man is a catalyst. Perhaps we need to start approaching infanticide from the point of view of male taboos. I do think that once it becomes completely socially unacceptable amongst guys to have a girl friend/wife end a pregnancy that we’ll be getting somewhere. Liken a male who goes along with infanticide to being a sissy or being cuckolded.

Male taboos can be the friend of the unborn. Real men don’t allow their babies to be terminated.
