turtlespeed 221 #81 February 18, 2011 Quote"YOU got pregnant? Then I'm gonna take your responsibility out of your hands and tell you what to do about it. I'm gonna see that you are held accountable by making YOU take it to term. I don't care what you do after that. Just do it." Incorrect assumption. I want to injsure that a person that made a decision knowing full well what the consequesnses MIGHT be, to take responsibility for that action without killing someone to cover their mistake. Then MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, more responsibility and accountability will be transferred and assumed by society as a whole. Quote Geez....one of these days somebody's going to get the idea that "responsibility" also includes neutering the male because he made the "mistake of fucking". Would you agree to that? Why - I took the personal responsibility and was accountable when I neutered myself. I have no unwanted kids, and no one can call me a murderer either. Everyone can make that choice. There are contraceptives for FREE in a great many places. What it boils down to is inconvenience. No one wants the burden of an unwanted child. I get that, I can sympathise with that. That does not change my stance on murder. Murder is not any less murder because you haven't become attached enough to your unborn baby. Loving someone does not make that person more valuable than one that is not. Quote The lady wants to fuck commit suicide? She takes responsibility for the outcome? You don't agree with her decision? So you TELL her, by law, what you want done? I don't get the logic. Hmmm.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are incorrect unless every sexual intercouse produces a pregnancy. Otherwise, it is "Might". It is logical to assume that since procreation might happen during sexual intercourse, there is a chance that, if you fuck someone, she MIGHT get preggers. Quote Quote Why - I took the personal responsibility and was accountable when I neutered myself. I have no unwanted kids, and no one can call me a murderer either. Good for you! Now, apply that across the board for men as you would for women. What should the male's "consequences" be if he is to be held responsible and accountable when a pregnancy happens? He can't carry to term so what now? He gets really inconvenienced, while not being part of commiting murder. Quote Quote Everyone can make that choice. There's that pesky "choice" word again. Yes. Abstinence is a choice too. Gotta hate when those choices are so damned inconvenient, don't you? Quote So, both the male and the female use contraceptives (responsibility) and a pregnancy still happens...they should be held accountable by carry-to-term? Every contraceptive comes with a warning that they might not be 100% effective. there is that pesky "Might" word again. Quote I'll hold off on the "murder" part for now. Some see in a way, like I do, as unlawfully ending the existance of a human life. Others don't.

It is estimated that up to 20% of all known pregnancies may end in miscarriage, and up to 30% of all pregnancies in total. This is because many pregnancies end prior to the woman even realizing that she is, in fact, pregnant (before the first missed period). These are known as “chemical pregnancies.” While many miscarriages cannot be satisfactorily explained, there are some common causes. These include chromosomal abnormalities, hormonal imbalances, problems with the uterus, placenta, or umbilical cord, and the presence of fibroids or cervical problems.

turtlespeed 221 #99 February 18, 2011 Quote QuoteSo, both the male and the female use contraceptives (responsibility) and a pregnancy still happens...they should be held accountable by carry-to-term? You neglected to answer this. First of all - you seem to conveniently leave off "accountability". Yes - they knew the risks when they did the deed. If you choose to (and had a choice not to, even if it was inconvenient to) walk down the street of a bad neighborhood knowing you MIGHT get shot, or mugged, and you walk that street anyway, take responsibility, and accountability, you knew the risks. All you have to do, in most cases, is avoid the risk. Quote"Ok...what I'm reading is that you are saying in the case of a pregnancy is that there should be no question of what the "consequences" will be ...carry to term. Ergo...no MIGHT involved. Are you speaking in terms of medical consequenses? In that I agree that the mothers needs may trump the childs. It's a slippery slope, that one. I can see arguments for and against. I generally side with the mother if her life is in danger of death or permanent extreme disabilitating physical consequenses. (Mainly death) I am also hesitant, and reluctant to admit that major defects in the child might warrant abortive procedures if it can be proven that the child would never be able to have any semblance of a life, and if the methods and technology we have today were taken into the equasion, were deemed innsufficient. Quoteif he knows that an abortion is going to happen and does nothing, there's them accomplice-to-murder laws out there.

Does it get carried out to Grandma and Granpa, to if they knew? Is it all or nothing? At this point in time, the law does not provide for any "Choice" by the male to have or not have any say. You say you are all for choices, right? Where is your outrage that the male has no "Choice" in wether HIS child is allowed to live? To answer your last question, obviously not. It's more of a moral issue than legal.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
