Men Abortion and Choice

[Stormieweather]

That requirement would have the same affect on my body, as outlawing abortion would. In other words, I would HAVE to carry an unwanted fetus around for 9 months and take all of the risks involved with pregnancy and childbirth (for me, both are equally high risk). My body would be forever changed as would my emotional state.

Who is going to hold my hair while I puke my guts out every morning? Who is going to rub my back when I can barely stand? Who is going to help me up out of my chair or up the stairs? Who is going to prepare and inject my insulin shots? Who is going to be with me while I go through the multiple tests and procedures to ensure a healthy pregnancy? Who is going to make sure I eat right and don't drink or do drugs? Who is going to hold my hand while I scream during labor? Who is going to bring me ice packs when my breasts engorge? Who is going to admire my not-so-perfect-anymore body?

How many women do you think would actually go through with giving the baby to the birth father after he forced her to complete the pregnancy and childbirth? He gets to have sex, proceed to sit back and daydream of his coming child, then get it handed to him on a silver platter <so to speak>. And you think this is somehow FAIR or EQUAL????

I agree with Dana, both people who engage in sex take a risk. If they aren't prepared to deal with the consequences, then they need to abstain. Period.
