I am so angry right now and it is the kind of anger that makes it hard to explain why I'm angry. What made me this angry? An article on the concept of "forced fatherhood" and whether it is "fair" to all the poor helpless disenfranchised men being subjected to it. Are you freakin' kidding me? Okay, so the piece I'm talking about is an opinion piece in The New York Times and it makes me want to puke. It's all about how if a woman gets pregnant accidentally and decides to keep the baby even if the guy who accidentally got her pregnant would rather she give the baby up for adoption or have an abortion, we should all feel bad for the guy when he is legally forced to pony up money to support that child. Oh BOO HOO!

Really, is this such an epidemic. Are women across the nation luring men into their beds and accidentally on purpose getting pregnant and then trapping the men into a lifetime of indentured financial fatherhood? Are men being subjugated so much in this way that we should all be outraged?
The article makes it sound like women have so much reproductive control. Like we aren't constantly having to fight over and over again for the right to choose and that poor helpless men don't have as much reproductive freedom as us crazy sex-starved baby craving bitches.
I'm sorry, I realize that I could break down the argument point by point, but I don't even think the argument deserves it. Let's me just say that I realize that having sex does not mean you want to have kids, just like shooting a gun doesn't necessarily mean you are trying to kill someone, but if you are using a gun for recreational purposes and accidentally shoot someone, you are still responsible.
