In reply to the discussion: Mormon Mom of 6 Details the Reasons *Men* are Most Responsible for Unwanted Pregnancies [View all]gtar100
(4,192 posts)100. This is not Misandry.
Maybe you feel challenged by it, but that doesn't mean she is exhibiting hate of males. She is challenging us to be responsible. Do you have a better answer to the problem of unwanted pregnancies? Feel free to chime in.
I did not feel hate from this article. Actually, quite the opposite. It's not easy to hear because men typically do not consider accidentally ejaculating in a woman to be much of their problem. Some individuals do rise to the responsibility but as a whole, men have been pretty fucking awful to women throughout known history. Saying we need to be responsible when having sex is not oppression or hate. And I don't think she crossed that line between telling us to get our shit together and actually hating on men.

She chose to let him in? In my experience, men are damn pushy about it and stronger than women.

Misandry is a steaming load of crap. I'm the fortunate child of fierce Wild West matriarchy.

I don't agree with that poster, but it isn't cool to call another DUer a troll.

So if two people have heterosexual sex only the man is responsible if there is a pregnancy?

No, I'm saying the man should pay for the pain and suffering and risk of life that he caused

I fully expect to get flamed, but this is why a lot of people have negative perceptions of feminism.

Are you saying a woman isn't ever responsible for agreeing to let a man's penis enter her?

Not sure what planet you're from, but on Earth, ONLY women are held 100% responsible

Her best point is that unwanted pregnancies should cost men dearly, and I'm not talking money.

The first idea is bull shit then they top it off with castration. It is a sick combination.

Yes, but only the women will be forced to produce a baby unpaid and unsupported.

Women can stop having sex with men, and elect more women to public office & more women can run.
