Guess what, life isn't fair.
It's ultimately the woman's choice.

If you don't want to get caught, get sterilized or don't play.

Women can't get pregnant without sperm.

my girlfriend (who considers herself an equity feminist) and i have these conversations all the time about how not all feminists are the same. my argument is always, yeah, that may be true, but when the idiot, radical ones are the only groups that make sure they are heard, what do expect peoples' view of feminism to be?? its like the more moderate humanist-type feminist are scared to be known and publicly denounce the more radical zero-sum, either you're with us are against us feminists.

Well women are prone to filing for divorce these days basically for the man's money and his assets.

They can cheat on a man, divorce him he's screwed financially. I won't get into which race of women are prone to that.

maybe it is just my generation but I think of women as feminist because they are women. radical or not...that is the individual

No, just speaking from my perspective. Watch the news, watch the videos on YouTube, watch reality television. Women create their own stereotypes.

If they have this discussion before the wedding and either is adamant about never wanting kids, then that one should see to it that a pregnancy never happens - tubal ligation for her or vasectomy for him. If the one who wants kids is the adamant one, then maybe they shouldn't get married in the first place. But neither should have to 'go along' with the other.
This is why, though I married my late husband about six weeks after I met him, I fully believe that 'waiting periods' of a month or more should be imposed on all couples who apply for a marriage license - give them time to have discussions on this kind of issue.

if not troll or racist I would say you have the wrong idea of women in general and you would be much happier if you changed your mindset to reality.

But don't you see that a lot of crap gets thrown at the term "feminists" that has nothing to do with feminism and then we're vilified for it?

Talk radio with the "feminazi" garbage; outright lies associated with "feminism" ...

Every woman's group is not necessarily a "feminist" group, nor are they associating with "feminism" but with certain women's issues. Health care is a women's issue, not necessarily a feminist issue.

Feminism is bandied around (and has been since the likes of Phyllis Schafly - who worked outside of the home) redefined feminism from what it was into demonizing all women who don't fit the "conservative" mold. She made her money from the women's movement.

Attacks on all women separate and divide them; it, too is a political ploy.
