Sure there is. Men can't lie about whether or not they're on birth control, since you guys don't have one of those yet. Smiley: tongue I'm almost surprised you didn't catch that that was tongue in cheek. Almost. Seriously though, like protein said it's not that difficult to find out before hand if you agree with your partner on abortion or child rearing BEFORE you sleep with them. I won't sleep with someone unless I know that they are okay with abortion, even though I'm not 100% sure I would have one if I was in that position.
Because you don't know how you will react until you're in their shoes. I'm not going to be a hypocrite. It's easy for me to say, "No abortion!" because I'm not in that situation where a woman is pregnant. If you're practicing "safer sex" and there is an unwanted pregnancy, that can totally throw you for a loop. Standing from the sideline, I can say "Pffft. that's your fault, you should have worn two condoms, pre-gamed and pulled out!"

Yeah i think you're pretty misguided there. There might be some loopholes there, and I don't think it's something that is widely known about. But I've heard of people terminating their parental rights before, both men and women. People complain about having their hard earned money taken away regardless of what it's for. And yeah, it's pretty damn likely that if the parents don't get along well, the parent paying child support is probably going to ***** about paying the other child support, no matter how much they love their kid. This is human nature.
Pretty sure that I'm not misguided. Once again, if it were that easy, there wouldn't be any issues. I did a quick wiki-search and the bottom line is the person who does not have custody must pay the parent with custody according to the guidelines provided by each state.

The child is not a person. It is a human life, sure. But it is not a person. The woman is a person, and has legal rights.
That makes no sense. If it's not a person, then why are you having an abortion?

It's called an analogy dip sh*t.
Those were supposed to be analogies? Sounded like a rant. Maybe you should be more metaphorical and less literal, you know, kind of like an analogy?

So, like I said, unless the woman used her own bone marrow to create her own child, then men have a say.
