My answer: Women are responsible because it's their bodies. Who is fertile when doesn't matter to me....the woman is the one that gets pregnant, so she has a bigger responsibility IMO. If men don't want to worry about a woman having their child, then they are responsible, as well Basically, we are responsible for our own bodies. It takes 2 to tango, so if you don't want to risk getting pregnant then protect yourself or don't dance I mean, if I decide to have sex and I don't want to get pregnant or STDs, then I should be responsible for my decision. Both are equal in deciding to have sex so both are equal to be responsible JMO So, if a woman should be solely responsible for birth control, do you also believe she should be the one responsible for deciding what to do with the baby? Whether she keeps it, puts it up for adoption, or gets an abortion? technically she does have that choice cause it's her body and she can do want she wants no matter if anyone likes it or not.Same goes for birth control If that were really the case, there wouldn't be any guys having a problem when a woman does one of those things without his approval. And if it were really just her choice, why are there people out there who want abortion banned? well both are responsible if a lady becomes pregnant and the man should step up and pay his dues and help too or she should just take the jerk to court if he doesn't as for >why are there people out there who want abortion banned? tell you truth it should be banned the child is alive in the womans womb to me i think its like murder i mean if a doctor does abortion whats the differant's at start or when its born they both still growing ? see its just sick both ways but while in side they don't charge them with murder outside they do in my eyes people who have abortions just murdered their baby sad but true :)and so sad i hate that

a younger relative posted to me this question,,,which I have no reasonable answer to If I am only capable of conceiving three or four days a month, and the male is capable of fertlization EVERY DAY,,, why am I the one responsible for taking contraception? why havent males created and been responsible for 'taking' contraception? Because ultimately, it's the woman that will end up being the primary carer if she did fall pregnant...regardless of whether they remained together as a couple or not. Regardless of whether he is a responsible father or not. In most cases, the child(ren) spend the majority of their time with their mother. Therefore I would say that it’s up to the woman to take responsibility for birth control if she wants to prevent a pregnancy or a STI. In terms of birth control (and STI's), it’s her body and she shouldn’t rely on the guy to take responsibility for her body. Why? Because people lie.

In terms of our culture/laws, pregnancy is strictly a womans rights issue to which men are not given any say,,, which would perhaps make it 'just' to expect the responsibility for preventing said pregnancy fall upon the woman as well,,,

You said a woman has a bigger responsibility. That's different than equal. read the entire post...not just the first sentence. Let me break it down Women are responsible because it's their bodies. Who is fertile when doesn't matter to me....the woman is the one that gets pregnant, so she has a bigger responsibility IMO. The women's POV If men don't want to worry about a woman having their child, then they are responsible, as well The men's POV and then... Basically, we are responsible for our own bodies. It takes 2 to tango, so if you don't want to risk getting pregnant then protect yourself or don't dance Applies to both sexes I mean, if I decide to have sex and I don't want to get pregnant or STDs, then I should be responsible for my decision. Both are equal in deciding to have sex so both are equal to be responsible JMO my opinion. You just took the first sentence of the entire post out of context Didn't realize you were speaking for men as well. Got it now.

Didn't realize you were speaking for men as well. Got it now. again...don't twist my words. I wasn't speaking FOR anyone. If men don't want to worry about a woman having their child, then they are responsible, as well this was showing why a man should be responsible too. so we are debating semantics? Got it now let me say it this way....whoever doesn't want a child or STD but has sex is responsible to protect themselves

Got it now I was only going by what you said in your post. You said you gave the woman's pov and the man's pov.

Obama is giving birth control to women? yes... How so? Making it more readily available? How would he do that for men if there isn't a birth control pill out there that is available for them?

I was only going by what you said in your post. You said you gave the woman's pov and the man's pov. Actually you took the first sentence at first and now it's about semantics. As I said in the very first post....it is up to each person. I gave it as I see it. Remember it is my opinion Let's not read too much into what I said...no hidden agenda or anything
