Or are you just a very average troll?
According to the mod that closed his other thread, "Women & Voting", he's being investigated

Trolls are so funny. They're like voluntary punching bags.

I think the question begs. Why do some people insist on regulating another womans reproduction?
Ok as I have stated if it is a chronic issue then perhaps a sterilization procedure is in order. If a woman insists on pumping out kids she can't afford to pay for and the taxpayer keeps picking up the tab she has made it public business. In short a partnership. We will pay to educate, feed, cloth and care for these children. Some women just don't have the self esteem to see that they need to change their life styles.
As for abortions. If you don't like or believe in it don't have one. I don't like cars with those annoying can mufflers. Not my car, its annoying but oh well.

So, I take it you think passing HIV/AIDS around is just fine and dandy like sugar candy?

Maybe there should be an S&M forum, for both those who enjoy punching, and being punched, while contributing little to the discussion.

If a man is committed to equal responsibility in raising a children I'll agree. According the US Census Bureau only 60% of men pay child support.

Because it involves more than just the women...

No one is forced to have sex, unless they are raped. If a woman chooses to have sex, they choose to possibly get pregnant, right? Women DO have a choice...the choice not to engage in activities that can result in pregnancy. Yes, the urge for sex is very strong. But so is the urge to eat unhealthy foods, drive fast, etc. Some people feel a strong urge to steal, murder, etc, otherwise they wouldn't risk being put in prison. We seem to have unquestionably embraced the "if it feels good, do it, regardless of the inevitable consequences" philosophy.

The pill is very effective. Especially when paired with a condom... My point is that abortion is not a necessity in order to avoid having 20 children.

Killing a potential child because of the economic burden on society or the mother is quite scary, immoral and selfish...

Sex for pleasure is safe guarded by the pill, diaphram, and the condom. Womens reproduction rights are not being undermined. Just scraping potential child(fetus) out is.
