At last I checked, a woman needs to consent to have sex for it to be legit. The woman has a choice to make her man wear a rubber or not to do it at all. Also the woman has options when it comes to birth control.

Yes, but what about the man making her feel like they are in "love"? Is it her fault as well for being lead on because she feels like she "loves" him too and he is being sincere. Oh wait, well if she gets pregnant she can just get an abortion. Like its that easy right? Yea okay I say BOTH genders are equally responsible.

Birth control is not always effective, what if you get sick and need to take antibiotics? BC does not work during that time.

Exactly, THANK YOU for speaking up. Many of the responses on this thread are making it seem like men do not have a say in conception.

Also, having an abortion could affect a woman's ability to bear children in the future.

The problem is that the women have all the power of the "kitty" and any man trying to get it needs to convince the women to give it to him. I say the birth problem all starts with preventing the pregnancy in the first place and the women have the lion share of power in doing this.

Actually I'm against abortion, but very pro-making sure that the problem don't happen in the first place.
