Ehh, it's more of a both partners should have a say in what happens. I don't know if there is a solution other than an unethical way of doing it, in which case I'd opt for OH's position instead. It's kind of like fighting against racism. You can't just control people's thoughts or speech but let's not make it socially acceptable. Just as it shouldn't be socially acceptable, let alone encouraged, for one person to make a decision that drastically changed two people's lives.

I still find it interesting how you call my opinions halfbaked despite you rarely engaging in the "arguments" I involve myself in. It's almost like you don't actually care about the substance of my positions and just want to jeer at me because you see me as your opposition. Seems pretty shallow-minded tbh.

I'll defend my positions as much as the next guy. I don't see you aiming the same criticism towards Frownland who will equally seize the opportunity to defend himself "to the death" as you call it.
No offense to elph, but you're 100% on with this. He rarely participates and just adds snide remarks kind of like a hype man while other's do the dirty work. The most he does is just tell you how dumb you are for not believing what he believes.



I wouldn't say I support men's rights because the people involved in the movement are retarded, but I do support people's rights. Men do often happen to face an oppressive culture that holds us to disgusting standards. Feminists call it 'toxic masculinity". I do think there is a problem with the way we treat fathers too. I'm not going to pretend men are any where near as oppressed as women, but there are some ****ty deals that get dealt to them. I'm not for pretending it doesn't happen because people are too simple minded to handle that you can fight for liberating women from the systematic oppression and culture of misogyny that has plagued us through out human history AND ending the few problems men have to deal with.

Oppression Olympics 2018. Whoever wins gets to deny quality of life improvements to all other groups until their problems are resolved.

The more MBers who opt out of parenthood, the better. The world would be a worse place with more of your kind in it.

If Catholics stop breeding they’ll have to start raping children outside of their religion. I think that’s a sin.
