Do men have reproductive rights?

[Racing Rice]

I've heard of mothers paying child support to fathers. I believe that child support is based on who gets full/majority custody. Most of the time the mother gets custody, but in rare cases the are not granted custody.

I don't particularly care for the whole idea of abortion, when there are so many good people out there that WANT to be parents but can't have kids for one reason or another. However, that is for another discussion.

Should the man pay, even if he didn't want a child? Just think of it like this.. You aren't paying for the child, you're paying for the sex. Regardless of what the reason for not using protection, you still new the risks associate with not using. I think we, as a society, needs to step up and accept responsibilities for our actions. Maybe next time they will think twice about reproducing.

See I think there are certian cases that men should be allowed to make the decision also. Consider this. Man and woman meet. Man says that he doesn't want to have kids. Woman says she doesn't want to have kids. Woman also says she can't have kids. Woman secretly lies to man and goes off birth control because she thinks that the man is a good guy and see's a future with him and some cash. Woman ends up pregnant and tells the man that "I guess we should get married for the sake of the kid, and that either we do that or I take you for everything"

Don't think it happens? It does. And it did to my Uncle.

So yes. I think that men should also have the right to choose if they want to keep their baby or not.

Hell yes it happens! That is why I say you should be 150% responsible for that you do. Come on, when was the last time you believed a woman and some thing didn't get screwed up in the long run? Even if she isn't lying when she says she can't have kids, doesn't mean shit. Most docters have a better chance at winning the lottery then being able to correctly diagnose human life. My parents were not suppose to be able to have kids either (so the docter says.) For some reason, my brother and I think he was wrong.
