and to feminists everything has to be a guys’ fault. somehow. they’ll figure out how to pin it on men somehow.
gimme a break. what crapola. men are powerless in the decision. tell that to the guys who wanted their kids and the woman aborted. or thgeguys who didnt even know about the abortion until finding out later, sometimes years later.
I agree
willfully ignorant of real life and ‘family’ court.
the people demanding and marching and organizing for abortion were in way overwhelming majority, women. not guys. you wanted your sexual freedom. well you got it. now that you’re sour about it you blame men - scotus and other lawmakers - for giving you what you wanted.
pro-life feminism: we like babies but still blame men for everything wrong in our lives.
Think about it, abortion frees men of 18 years of child support. Men may be powerless when it comes to a woman aborting their child but they do benefit the most from abortion.
I can only surmise that you were a man whose woman had an abortion despite your objections, or without your knowledge. That’s sad and I’m sorry for you. But if you think that’s the typical scenario, you are naive.
Maybe we should ask Brian Terry and Ambassador Stevens.
i would say the women benefits more. we’re always told raising a kid is harder than what the guy does at work to support the kid. so the women is free from raising a kid for 18 years. and we’re told that’s harder than the guy’s job and merely forking money over to pay for the kid.
that did not happen to me. i can empathize with guys that have had that happen because this pc-libtard society has made men powerless and made being a guy illegal/verboten from day one in the govt indoctrination centers thru college and beyond. all the while claiming they have all the power, too much power, and are the cause for everything bad that happens to women and anyone else.
Illogical. The child is an innocent. The child has two parents. Once born the child should be supported by both parents.
If men don not want babies then keep it zipped.
That miniscule minority needs empathy. But it is, indeed, miniscule. Besides, to the responsible men who really do care about such an issue, it isn't an issue, because they aren't impregnated women casually in the first place. And if they are... well, then, as I said before, abortion is the ultimate sexism.
It’s interesting that she’s looking for a different conversation, but anytime you suggest that abortion isn’t good for women, the pro-abortion folks start howling that you’re ‘anti-woman’. It will be hard to get that conversation past that point, but it would be a good idea.

Hope you don’t see my critique is man bashing when its feminist bashing. The feminists want to be just like men but the feminist movement has harmed women.
I am a knuckle dragger with a libertarian bent so I originally didn’t care about abortion too much when I was younger. Our second child miscarried several years ago and I still get choked up. I just knew it was a girl and wanted daddy’s little girl so much. I would have given her the world. she will never play or feel the sun. I would trade my life for hers. How anyone can kill their child is beyond me,
Bflr.
it has harmed women.
i would go as far to say the entire sexual revolution has harmed a whole lot of women AND men. and divided them further rather than bringing them closer.
i hardly think women will agree with you when they control the decision, they find it self-empowering, and it allows them a sexual lifestyle many, many do want to have, as they believe it equals the playing field.
if it’s sexism it’s the only sexism that women demanded the right to have. and still want today.
>> the way the abortion debate is framed in our culture
No woman’s sense self-worth should be elevated by having the right to kill.
