Do you think men will ever get POST PREGNANCY rights?

Women have the choice between abortion, adoption, dropping an unwanted baby off at a hospital, raising the child with a father, or raising the child without a father, but the only choice men have is to agree!

Roe V Wade gave women the right to UNILATERALLY choose to be a parent or not to be a parent POST-PREGNANCY. Do you think there will ever be a law that'll give men post pregnancy rights: The post pregnancy right to UNILATERALLY choose if he wants to be a parent or not?

This is a question about POST PREGNANCY RIGHTS FOR MEN. The operative word here is POST.

Now I get to see how many people out here know how to READ...

Update:

I'm leaning more on the choice for the man to unilaterally OPT OUT of parenthood. The 'my body, my choice' argument is irrelevant in this instance.

Update 2:

@Emily

You're filled with hate. You got bigger issues than this post, and I'm no psychiatrist.

@Princess

That's my personal mantra, and why I don't have any kids. There are a LOT of Emily's out there!

@Maria and RitzC

You add nothing to the discussion. Why dodge the question when you can simply ignore it?

@Holly G

That wouldn't work, since that contract would be voidable. Great response though!

    In time there will be a change, once Roe v. wade is overturned I expect it would be at that time that men will be able to have equal rights along with the mother and society will be much better off. Abortions would be scarce and only for medical necessity, liberals would migrate to someplace without a backbone or moral compass if they disagree. We need to encourage our children to have kids after marriage as this makes things much easier to handle.

    When men give more than their 5 seconds of ejaculation to the production of the baby then perhaps yes.

    It's like doing a group project. You do all the work, with a dead beat partner. Then they expect to get the credit as well. Nope, not gonna happen.

    In terms of being forced to take responsibility of a baby it's like taking part in a murder and hiding the body. You may have not stabbed the knife into their back, but you're still involved. So therefore you will be required to pay the consequences.

    E, with some reservations. My take on your techniques - A) adult adult males lack an know-how/acceptance of common biology - some adult adult males do, no longer all of them. B) adult adult males seek for equivalent result extremely than equivalent threat - I help equivalent opportunities, and have faith in equivalent result for equivalent artwork. In a widely used experience, your assertion means that adult adult males who do no longer trust anti-male rules like those of Harman, are hypocrites - which isn't genuine. C) maximum adult adult males are in reality professional existence, and that they only desire to eliminate abortion as an option - I m uncertain how this end has been reached, yet I m effective there are as many variety of adult adult males that are professional-decision as there are professional-existence (I m no longer implying that they are opposites in spite of the undeniable fact that) D) adult adult males desire sexual gratification without duty for it is effects - could be genuine in some circumstances, yet no longer continually. E) adult adult males are envious that ladies human beings have greater administration over replica than they do - i'd call it frustration over double-standards. without getting in to the various eventualities the place a guy want that the toddler be aborted, i will basically say that the guidelines are so lop-sided that adult adult males will on no account win this debate. "My view is that adult adult males's alternatives exist on the time of coitus, and not after that element." - Agreed, yet i would be unable to work out the way it is universally genuine whilst there ARE circumstances the place the female tricked him into it. I m no longer mendacity in this regard, and a obvious occasion that consists of my techniques is the Cynthia Powell-John Lennon tale. Lennon on no account forgave her or the son that replaced into born, (Julian) for this. I continually say that the two would desire to be responsible. humorous you provide this selection E, which exhibits adult adult males contained in the superb easy achievable between all the different techniques, final. i will basically thank that this question related to a delicate subject comes from a common GWS-previous-timer such as you, extremely than from an immature feminist in this website.

    if you want men to opt out of post pregnancy parenthood then a lawyer needs to put it in writing as a legally binding document that can't be reneged upon. and a paternity test would be conditional of the legal document.

    Honestly I doubt it. Only because women now a day say, "it's my body, & I can do as I want with it." & they'll keep saying it... Also if that law protects women for that I don't think another law can override it because as to that, women will more than likely have the bigger "say".

    Men do have POST rights to the child. They don't have rights to the unborn child.
