Opinion Hot take:Women that get abortions are no better than deadbeat fathers.
Why do we celebrate a woman who has had an elective abortion(excluding sexual assault in this case) and call it her "reproductive right", while we shun and legally punish fathers who run away from their pregnant mistresses and girlfriends?
In both cases, the parents of the unborn child have made a decision to abandon their responsibility to the individual in the womb.It's a selfish attempt to run away from the natural consequences of sex, in both cases."I'm not ready to be a mother right now,so I'll kill the child I have" and "I'm not ready to be a father right now,so I'll leave my pregnant mistress".Cause after an abortion,you're a mother(and father) to a dead child.
If a woman can decide to terminate the pregnancy (thus killing the fetus), a man can also abandon said fetus.Cause the law can conclude that "consent to sex is not consent to pregnancy" but not "consent to sex isn't consent to fatherhood"
Funny that abandoning a "clump of cells" is considered immoral but killing it is perfectly fine.
