Male abortion

Just curious what other people think about this.

I was reading a few months ago about how in Sweden there was a law being proposed that would allow for ''male abortion''

Women have the right to have an abortion regardless of the father's consent so the law was attempting to even things. If passed the law would permit for expecting fathers to sign away their parental rights and obligations, so they would forfeit both all custody rights and any child support obligations. According to the law they would have from the time they were made aware of the pregnancy until, the latest time the woman could legally have the child terminated to sign the necessary papers.

Just to clarify, to limit the screaming comments, the law would NOT permit fathers to force the mothers into abortions.

I'm personally pro life but if abortion is legal then I think it should be fair, if the mother can end the pregnancy than I think the father should have the right to want nothing to do with it.

Comments welcome.

yes male abortion should be legal 26
no it shouldn't be allowed 16

    I can see the logic of it but its really messed up to not be part of your childs life. The whole situation shows why ppl should be more responsible about the choices they make regarding sexual relations. Its not fair to the life being brought into the world to have irresponsible parents.

      Woman shouldn't be tricking guy's into getting them pregnant and then making them pay child support and doing their best to stop them from being able to see the kid, that's why they have these laws.

        Yea I agree. Its to bad poor men don't have more control over where they put there dicks if they could just somehow figure out how to avoid putting them in vaginas until they burst out there little swimmers all this unnecessary nonsense could be avoided. But the question is... how?

        And here it seemed to me laws like this are there so guys could duck all responsibility for there spawn. I guess its all a perspective thing. But not my problem as I won't ever be having children and far from tricking guys into inadvertently impregnating me I spend far more time trying to keep them from even trying. I guess I'm just failing as a woman when my goal really should be to have as many guys as possible on the hook paying for the children I forced them to make.

        I knew a young woman and her goal was to get preg by as many guy's as she could. A good income plan.

            It's not our fault you choose to surround yourself with the lower class trashy bogans you clearly associate with.

    Itduz made a post about this same subject before. It got quite a lot of attention if I remember correctly.

    So, in this scenario, would the woman need to sign off on the male-abortion too or would the man just be able to do it by himself?

    If the man can just abort all responsibility without consequence, then what prevents this from becoming something that men can just abuse? If that's the case, then I am against it.

    If there are measures in place to keep this from being something that men can abuse freely to avert responsibility from getting a woman pregnant, then I would probably be for it.

      Why would they 'abuse' this? Most men want to be a part of their kids life when they're happily married or living together with their wives/girlfriends.

      Men that don't (abusive relationship, getting tricked in to having a child when they don't want one) deserve a chance out of this, don't they?

        'Most men want to be a part of their kids life when they're happily married or living together with their wives/girlfriends.'

        I'm not talking about those men. I'm talking about the piece of shit 'men' that don't care about being involved in their kids' lives. I'm talking about the ones that have no concept of maturity and what it means to be a parent. I don't know what utopia you've been living in, but being 'happily married' isn't the norm in my experience. Most people nowadays don't know what it means to be committed. Just look up divorce rates...

    I don't see how what you describe could possibly equalise anything: how do you equalise the fact that the woman is the only one who gets pregnant? The final decision on abortion has to be hers and hers alone because the alternative is compulsory pregnancy and childbirth.

    Is what you're describing legislation to cover the situation where the woman decides against abortion and the man wants her to have one?

    • basically, its where if the girl keeps the baby when they guy doesn't want her to, it gives him an out.

      The idea is if the girls can choose to get rid of the baby without the father having a say in it then the father should be given a similar liberty.

        "A similar liberty"? WTF are you talking about? The situation of the woman and the man are not similar or anything like it and never can be, unless you are suggesting he should have the right to have the pregnancy terminated against her wishes. And that wouldn't really be "similar" either because she's the pregnant one and he's not.

          It's just a law were the father can sign away legal rights and obligations to the child if the child wasn't planned.

          It's an "abortion" in the sense that he's terminating his responsibilty to the pregnancy.

        • Of course I'm not suggesting to forcibly terminate the pregnancy, anyways I was just asking people about their opinion of the proposed law.

            Oh OK, that's sort of what I thought OP was saying but I was trying to get her/him to be clearer.

            So there's an unplanned pregnancy, she doesn't want to have a termination but he wants her to, so he signs something giving up any rights and presumably she undertakes not to ask for child support? I supposed that's fair, except to the child who may want to know who his/her father is at some stage.

            Here's an interesting and slightly relevant story from the 60's: it was a common practice back then when unmarried pregnant women later took the father to court for child maintenance, for him to claim she was promiscuous and had had sex with all his mates, who would come along to court and back up the story. The intention was to make her appear a slut who had no idea who the baby's father was and cases would be dismissed. A very enlightened magistrate I knew, decades before his time, solved this problem by telling the bloke & his mates that in that case he would divide the maintenance for the child equally between them. Good one, eh?

        Doesn't it get tiring always being wrong, stupid or both?

        That wasn't her comment. Tard.

          Who's the only user on this website that hates Wigz? That's right, thesailorfuck and yes the Wigz account I linked to was legitimate, how does it make you feel? Tard.

          Edit: Have you and your BF from South Carolina ever going to make it happen or have you finally realized what I've said was true all along, there's got to be a man in the relationship or it's never going to happen.

            Wow you're a retard. I never said that wasn't her account. I said that she didn't comment about tgs on this post, you fucking moron. How does it make me feel? Way more intelligent "then" you, that's for sure. But that's no great achievement.

            Your obsession with my relationship is unhealthy. Jealous, much? I don't know or care what you mean by "make it happen". Quit drinking, you can't even form sentences.
