ORIGINAL: xBullx I see your point Angelika, but I'm curious about the way you responded to this... What if the guy didn't mean for her to get pregnant, what if he was coerced into sex or the condom broke or her pills were "accidently" forgotten? Shouldn't a guy have a choice to have her abort? I mean she's walking around with his swimmer held hostage in her egg. So if the Government will pay for her abortion will it not now pay his child support if she wants the baby and he doesn't? I mean considering Moonheads position fairs, fair, right? quote:

I do everything I can to prevent it. I do as well. I protect myself many ways and believe in planning parenthood. Also, when I drive a car down the street, I do everything I can to prevent an accident. Reality is, accidents happen. And they happen to people who were being extra careful. We can't start judging who deserves a funded abortion and who doesn't. What do you say of the young girl who gets slipped some GHB and winds up pregnant? Or the girl who get raped? Or the girl who is on the pill and still gets pregnant? The condom that breaks combined with the morning after pill that doesn't work? The diaphragm that wasn't fitted properly? The woman who has an IUD and still gets pregnant? There is no method of contraception that is full proof other than abstinence of male-female vaginal penetration. Even then... swapping fluids during mutual masturbation can lead to pregnancy. Imagine how humiliating it would be to have to go through a triage to determine if you did everything you could to avoid getting pregnant. - LA That is absolutely a tricky question and I'll agree with you that there is no right answer. I think a lot of it has to do with what a man accepts to do when he finds out that there has been conception. I think that if he says that he will be there and the woman bases her decision to keep the baby in part on that, then he has committed himself. This is going to be controversial, but it is my belief that after learning of an unplanned conception, a man should have the right to say he doesn't want a child. And if he informs the woman in time for her to make an informed decision, there should be a way for him to opt out. She then has the option of deciding to have the baby and keep it, have the baby and give it up for adoption or having an abortion. But the decision will have been informed. I know people are going to disagree with me on that point but I won't be a hypocrite. If women have a choice, so do men. But if he says he'll be there and splits, even before the baby is born, he has child support to pay because he committed himself to this. - LA
