It is all hypothetical, yes. There are men who actually cry when they lose a baby. My husband did twice. There are men who callously abandon their pregnant partners. But in this tweet, it's hypothetical. We have to go situation by situation.

It's quite possible to be sympathetic to a grieving man and angry with a callous one who abandons his partner. It makes no sense to pick a side on this because men are individuals.

I also surf w guys. overheard a group of them other day joking @ how they don’t use FB because they’d hate for a woman to track them down to tell them they had kid. Like I said—tearful men may exist. But I’ve never seen one. (It’s different if you r married and miscarry.)

I know of one guy who was absolutely distraught that the girl he was with got an abortion. He was sexually promiscuous but considered himself a Christian. It doesn’t make sense but that’s who he was. I don’t think he ever got over it. He does have a daughter now though.

No. Men do get emotionally invested in pregnancies. They are human too.

My entire family was emotionally invested in my pregnancies. I lost the first and my brother was so upset at the news he punched a hole in the wall of his home in despair. This loss was shortly after my sister died.

Yes, I lost two. My husband grieved with me for the second one.
