Common bait&switch argument.
It’s not a choice as far as women are concerned (so women deserve another choice in the form of abortion) but it’s a choice for men?
You can’t have it both ways and claim to not be sexist.
- schwartzworld 4y agoI mean, what's the alternative? Are you suggesting legally forcing someone to undergo a medical procedure? Or in the case of the man wanting to keep the baby, are you suggesting doctors don't perform the procedure without the consent of both parents? Both scenarios sound completely untenable to me. What if we agree it's ultimately the choice of whoever has a baby growing inside them regardless of their sex?
- tomp 4y ago“Financial abortion” is a sensible solution. Edit: but in general I care more about equality than about a particular solution. Either both men and women have a choice after sex, or neither. The current sexist solution is the worst.
