Everyone agrees men should be responsible but the don’t/won’t because as you said the women get pregnant. That attitude has to change. Man and woman together are pregnant, they are both responsible. It’s his child. Allowing the idea to continue it’s on women and the man can relinquish his responsibility is wrong. Change that attitude and behavior will go a long way in curbing unwanted or unplanned pregnancy.
Man and woman together are pregnant, they are both responsible. It’s his child, ......until the woman wants to abort it. Then how much say does he have over his child.
Except you’re blaming them yet they can’t get pregnant. If a woman is going to have sex with a man that won’t use birth control, and won’t use birth control herself, she’s asking to get pregnant.
Quite the strawman argument as nobody said anything about knowing who’s using birth control…and for women that don’t, it will continue to result in a hUUUge amount of unwanted pregnancies, single mothers, etc…
It isn’t blaming men to except them to mind their own reproduction.

Don’t want your child aborted? Even more reason to watch your sperm. As they tell women get to know your partner make sure your views align if an unplanned pregnancy happens
Thank goodness its only~1.2%.
In contrast:
Approximately
6% have substance use disorder
40% are obese
7.9% contracted an STD
7.6% suffered accidental injury
And that is a conservative estimate based on 328,000,000 population whereas unwanted pregnancies are based on 65,000,000 (estimated women between the ages of 15 and 44)
7.7% are incarcerated (based on and estimate of 26,000,000 persons over the age of 18.
Lots of irresponsible people.
Are you ignoring your own "That's not what we're talking about" statement?

Nope. Just showing that women are taking responsibility for their sexual health with only 1.2% unwanted pregnancies(=irresponsibility) compared to the general irresponsibility of the population in terms of their health care and choices.

Quite the deflection. What happened to all the "pregnant together, both responsible, his child" narrative. Only true when it serves your talking point?
