Post-feminism and BDSM

why should a man have to pay to financially support a child he did not "choose," by a woman he was never committed to? why should he be financially indebted for the next 18 years of his life simply because a woman "chose," on her own, to carry a pregnancy to term and then raise that child? i have never understood that logic. as the humans with the uterus, the onus DOES lie on us, sorry. if you are a single/unattached woman, do not have a child you are not financially prepared to care for.

Because he ''chose'' it as much as she did by not acting responsibly and not taking precautions.
I see it differently. Its not about a woman he never committed to...its about a child he is responsbile for.
Personally If I ever founf myself in that situation I would rather try and manage without the financial input of the man, but thats just because ideally I would prefer it that way. However if I was struggling or couldnt manage...why shouldnt he contribute.

He could always choose not to get into that situation.
 
Exactly. He chose to stick his dick in unprotected. That is HIS responsibility.

I agree totally - and I also agree that it's payments for the child, not the woman. Having said that I feel mixed emotions towards the whole issue for so many reasons. It's complicated and I'm glad that I've not been in that situation.
