Pay child support

I will never take the pro-choice movement seriously because they are generally anti-choice about everything else.

Birth control can fail.

And you're missing the point. The point is what I said on my OP. A female can get out of paying for a baby she doesn't want, so a male should be able to.

Why can females force a male to pay but males can't force a female to pay?

Note: I'm not saying males should force females to pay. I'm just saying females shouldn't force males to pay. No one should force anyone to pay.
Have a vasectomy. You can get it reversed if and when you are responsible enough to parent a child, and have found a woman who wants to have a child with you. Problem solved.

Yes. How would a woman get another woman pregnant?

Obviously you people are missing the point, so why don't I explain:

I am not trying to control what a female does.

The thought of parenthood devastates me so I'm thinking from this point of view:

If a female wants to get an abortion, she should. I support abortion. I can see why someone wouldn't want a baby.

But if the male doesn't want to pay, why should he?

Why can a female have all the sex she wants and get off scot free, but the male takes a risk every time he has sex?

If a female wants a baby, she can go ahead and have the baby. But the male shouldn't need to pay. The female can make the choice of whether or not she wants to pay, so the male should be able to make the same choice.

quit being obtuse and answer the autual question.

up to the point of impregnation are the options different for men and women.

(of course we are talking about consensual sex and excluding all forms of rape in this discussion)

An person against abortion could say the same to women; they had a choice to use birth control (or not have sex).
