Can we get back to topic about how much say reluctant fathers should get if their partner or former partner get's pregnant by him.

:shocked:Purple!

I am a moderator on BAUT - we use purple when moderating

Well my view on the topic is that the man should own his seed.. The woman only has the egg, the seed is higher in rank!

Plus many women use the man to get pregnant... Child support etc! Why should he pay if only she wanted the child?..

lol well tell andyman directly and don't be so indiscriminate.

aww so not only are you a self confirmed "tommy tank" er ( did I phrase that right?) but your single too hehe.p

Finally, someone with a bit of sense

You tell them sticks

Bore off "princess :joker:"

I'm done with you for now

Ok den, ickle girl! Night night.

What are you talking about, IVF, and she's not allowed to continue?

It's nobodies business. It's the woman's body. End of discussion.

When you came inside her, that was your last warning that you could become a parent.

Because he knocked her up and put her in that position. You don't get to own a woman's body suddenly for 9 months. You want to carry it, and you're male, go ahead and try.

Yep. And that's biology. Take it up with nature. There's more affect on the woman than the man.

I agree, but I also believe that the idea of terminations is wrong. So I think that if a male does climax inside the woman then the woman needs to take responsibility for not taking the pill or having unprotected sex. It works both ways, if you are not going to be sensible then you shouldn't be having sex. Women need to accept the responsibilities just like men do.
So what if it's your body, it is still your fault.

There was a court case where a couple going through IVF split up and the man withdrew consent. She had had cancer treatment so this was her only chance for a child, but under the law, which was held up by the courts, the fertilised embryos were destroyed, because the man no longer wanted to be a father.

This is the law relating to IVF, pre-implantation.

This anomaly in the law does prompt the question, if the man has this right to pull the plug on IVF, in these days of equality could it be argued that the man should have the right to insist the woman have a termination.

For the record if I were to have got either a girl friend or a wife pregnant, I would be wanting them to have the child and play a full part in it's life, but I do wonder if this scenario may one day come to pass :shocked:
