      so you feel people deserve to be punished if they have sex without protection?

      this argument only works if youre advocating for men to get a legal abortion where they waive rights

      But those two things are only really equivalent if a woman can sign a piece of paper & no longer be pregnant. If that's what an abortion was

      ofc but if your argument for abortion is getting rid of the responsibilities men surely should have

      Sure, in principle. It just gets a lot messier in practice because having an abortion is a huge emotional decision for many. Ppl forget that

      In principle, I support the right to abortion & recognise that an embryo is not a baby. In practice, I could never do it coz I feel it is.

          Completely irrational but knowing that doesn't change anything.

          but what is that argument though? that abortions should only be legal if they cause emotional trauma

          I haven't made an argument about 'male abortion' at all. I've said that in principle both are sound. In practice, it's messy.

          In principal, we could say that both sexes should have the right to have foetuses removed from their bodies & the right to sign a piece...

          ...of paper & then have their foetus come to term in someone else's body and never have to have anything more to do with it.

          But the reality is different because men & women's bodies are different.
