SivaGanesha 2 #1 February 18, 2011 Okay, imagine this scenario. A man gets a woman pregnant (consensual sex) and she wants an abortion. But she doesn't have the funds for an abortion, and he doesn't want her to have an abortion. He, on the other hand, DOES have the funds to pay for her abortion should she have one. He also is willing and able to support the child should she carry it to term. He can also prove that abortion is against his long held religious beliefs, and that she knew about his beliefs prior to having sex. Under such circumstances should he be required to pay for the abortion?"It's hard to have fun at 4-way unless your whole team gets down to the ground safely to do it again!"--Northern California Skydiving League re USPA Safety Day, March 8, 2014 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I think he should have a choice, to be determined by a jury of their piers, whether or not his child should be killed or not. They did this together. They should accept the consequense.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
Lindsey 0 #3 February 18, 2011 He should not have to pay for the abortion. She should have the right to an abortion regardless of what he wants. If he wants to raise the child, and she doesn't want a child, if she's worth her salt she'll carry the baby to term and give the child up to him...and pay child support until the young'un is 18.-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Andrewwhyte 1 #4 February 18, 2011 The decision of whether to have an abortion is 100% hers. The courts have made it very clear that it is none of his business. It seems only logical that an expense that is incurred at the behest of one person is not the responsibility of another. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davjohns 1 #10 February 18, 2011 Interesting situation. Brings up all kinds of questions. If she wants the child, she can make him responsible for 18 years of child support. If he wants the child and she conceeds, she could pay for 18 years. He has no financial duty now, but could end up paying much more. She has all the decision authority once he has made his genetic donation. In general, it is a very one-sided situation in favor of the woman. This situation attempts to reverse that typical scenario to see how things go when the shoe is on the other foot.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't see the boys getting kicked out of high school, or dropping their college plans in same numbers, or suffering potential death from the experience.

If no and she keeps - he pays child support If no and he keeps - she pays child support. Only two options so I voted yes. BTW... "A man gets a woman pregnant" is awfully sexist. It takes two to tango. One could say she got herself pregnant through the use of a man...just as sexist. Correctly, they both caused the pregnancy. My reality and yours are quite different.
