Surely both parties were equally responsible, no?

Yes, but he gave up his seed, she was the reviver, should that not make a difference?

I've got no sympathy for those who come into hard decisions because they didn't practice safe sex. That being said.. if they were in a committed relationship and suddenly the girlfriend/wife changed her mind (let's assume both parties had discussed having a child at length) I would certainly understand and feel for the boyfriend/husband. I don't think that is a scenario that plays out too often--but then again I could be wrong. *shrugs*

Use condoms and birth control and there is no issue.

That is a fair metric to use and it makes sense.

The same metric should be used for prostate cancer and breast cancer research funding too but prostate cancer gets less than half. This is our fault as men for being silent.

"Prostate cancer will be diagnosed in more than 22 000 Canadian men this year. Breast cancer will be diagnosed in more than 22 000 Canadian women this year. Currently, 1 in 8 Canadian men is expected to be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime; 1 in 27 will die from the disease. 1 One in 9 Canadian women is expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer during her lifetime; 1 in 27 will die of it."

True, but if the man goes in understanding that he has no say in the fallout, he shouldn't complain about said lack of say

agreed, but my ex often got tired of me asking did you take the pill

Is misandry a problem in the west? Nooooooo.....



If the situation was reversed and a man on a talk show was making jokes about a woman who was brutally mutilated, there would be national outrage.

Men have always been considered disposable. Sperm=plentiful, egg=rare.

I think misandry has been a natural result of modern feminism. You see it everywhere in advertising and entertainment.

Oh noez.. not Sharon Osbourne.. or the magazines.. or Hollyweird.. bah. If you take any of that crap seriously you've got bigger problems lurking than misandry and militant feminism.

The mass media is the greatest social engineering tool ever created.

You don't think it affects peoples attitudes?

No form of birth control is 100% effective, even when used properly.

Oh of course it does.. but as long as ppl keep 'drinking the kool-aid' they'll remain under the veil. You can choose to wake up from it.

What is Section 7??

From what I can tell, men have little or no reproductive rights. Her body, her choice and all that......

Well sure, but I'll bank on 97-99% effectiveness over the pure gamble of not using them.

Responding to this now that you've corrected what you intended to post (modified in bold below):

No, I don't see why that would make any difference. That seems like an incredibly archaic way of looking at human sexual relations.

Both parties agreed to consensual sex. They're equally at fault if it results in an unplanned pregnancy.

Easier said than done.

The Sharon Osbourne attitude is ubiquitous.

When the male pill comes out .........it'll be a game changer.

[Boshi]
