This Man Is Suing An Alabama Clinic Where His Ex-Girlfriend Got An Abortion

Fuck no. If a woman doesn't want a child, she doesn't have to bear a child.
I know it'd break my choice know I lost a potential child...but fuck that isn't my choice.

"He badly wanted a child"
Well, the women didn't.
Having to carry a child gives the women the tie breaker on a two way vote.
Take the L and find someone who wants a kid
Anyone who says "men don't have a say" lacks some functioning brain cells. Men have a say, they are just angry that the women has the final say

"I want a child and I want a family"
"Why don't you adopt"
"It's not the right time actually"
what a shit.

Fuck that guy.
But in general it's important for us men to remember that we don't have to carry the child for 9 months.
Our bodies aren't being used as possibly life threatening incubators.
No one can demand that we give up our body or part of our body for the sake of someone else.

Suing her is not even going to bring the fetus back so this definitely isn't about wanting a family, it's about wanting revenge. It's not even about wanting a family because he's not looking to adopt.
The fucking entitlement...it's despicable that this has gotten this far. What the fuck is he on? Wants a say in women's reproductive choices? Fuck right off! You don't own women, it doesn't matter what the fuck you want, you don't get to force that on anyone. Imagine the outcry if women tried to force men to give up sperm because they really, really wanted a child with an unwilling man. The fuck even is this world coming to when this kind of dumb shit is given the time of day?
Desperately wanted a child? Then go find a woman willing to have one with you, asshole. Not about control, lol, good one.
Oh yeah, and fuck Alabama for even entertaining such an ass backwards lawsuit.

Gee, I wonder why. Reproductive coercion is vile and I wish nothing but the worst for this dude and his lawyer.
Let's hope he never tricks some poor unsuspecting chick to be his breeder.
Just like the other 99.999% of the time, it has nothing to do with actually wanting a child, everything to do with controlling the actions of a woman.
It doesnt really matter. He could have the purest intentions in human history and it still wouldnt obligate his girl friend to have his baby.
For the record, adoption is and incredibly difficult and expensive process. Most people dont manage to successfully adopt even if they want to.
I really want to have a son or daughter. If I was in a relationship with someone and got them pregnant it would mean the world to me. If she chose to abort I would probably end up cutting all ties with her and I wouldn't be able to forgive it.
Having said this, I wouldn't stop her from doing it if she really wanted to, despite my feelings about it. Dude wants to control her, and suing the clinic is wrong.

Even if someone wants to believe that men have an equal right to decide whether to get an abortion or not, the fact that the woman has to carry it for 9 months means they deserve the tiebreaker and can make whatever damn choice they well please.
This guy can fuck right off.

This particular case may not be the best example, but it does illustrate a fundamental inequality in abortion/child care laws. A woman can (in many [all?] states) terminate a pregnancy without agreement from the father and a woman can bear a child and the father is (legally at least) financially on the hook even if he disagrees. Conception is primarily a consensual experience (i.e. both parties understand the consequences of intercourse; rape or faking contraception aside) so there should be more parity on the chosen outcome. Obviously a delicate issue with lots of strong feelings on all sides but I feel there could be more debate.
Its ridiculous that a lawyer would even take the case. Its the womans choice wether she wants to have the baby or not. End of story
Gee I wonder why that is.
Pregnancy can absolutely demolish a woman's body and mental health. Even in a good pregnancy it does crazy things. It's basically 9 months of hell followed by very likely massive injuries that might heal... might not. And again there's a huge mental toll. Plus having to try and keep working during this time when your body is focusing on this tiny being.
Until there's a way for a woman to safely just transfer all of that to a man then things should be unequal.
Yea it's no joke. My wife's (now former) boss called her while she was in labor demanding files. First and only time I cursed out someone from her job.
Men can try carrying a fucking baby inside them for 9 months, dealing with all the physical and emotional consequences during and after, some of which is permanent. Or take birth control pills or other internal contraception. Or deal with a miscarriage or stillborn baby dying inside them. Then they can have "more parity."
I have kids, I know what pregnancy is like. It can have an emotional and even physical toll on the man as well. Simply because pregnancy has a toll on the mother shouldn't eliminate all rights of the father or put him on the financial hook for 18 years by default. Getting pregnant is almost always due to consensual sex (with or without the intent to get pregnant) so there should be, not 50:50, but SOME input from the father. Their emotional and physical health should also be considered in a decision to terminate or keep a baby, IMHO. Somewhere between "all pregnancy decisions rest solely on the mother" and "the father has 100% control" is a middle ground that respects a woman's body as well as a man's responsibility.
Sent this article to a friend.
"I think that is a good thing" was the reply I got back.
I need to make better friends.

As a man, i can't wrap my head around the idea that men think they should be able to dictate what women do with their own bodies.
Where do you draw the line? Should our gf's able to dictate my reproductive health choices? Ofcourse we say "hell no" when the roles are reversed.
"Because I want an family, she should have to involuntarily subject herself to 9 months of potentially life threatening body transformation and the life altering prospects of parenthood" how crazy does that sound?!??!?
