lawlesslawyer:
I've been thinking a lot about this topic lately, and I know feminists are loathe to talk about it, but I think it's time we all had a discussion about a very important, oft-ignored civil rights issue: men's abortion rights. I'd like to take a moment to thank Samuel Alito and his long-overdue nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States for pushing the issue to the forefront of the abortion rights debate, where it belongs.
Were you aware that most men are born without a uterus? This grave injustice, a cruel blow dealt by nature, causes men to depend on the law for control over a uterus. Most women have control over a uterus, and to deny this pleasure to men is deeply, deeply unfair and, in my opinion, a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution. Through this most egregious slight of fate, men will never know the bliss of an unwanted pregnancy, the thrills of encountering slobbering, praying protesters at a medical clinic, the absolute ecstasy of discovering that only one doctor in the entire state will provide them with necessary reproductive health care. They cannot understand the sheer joys of pages upon pages of lofty editorials questioning their ability to make a moral decision without the legislatively-mandated help of their spouse or their one-night-stand from two months ago.
As it turns out, contrary to the feminist liberal propaganda, Samuel Alito champions civil rights in a way that few men in his position are brave enough to do. While women gather in groups of millions, whining about emergency contraception this and back alley that, Samuel Alito alone has taken up the mantle of the forgotten voice in the struggle for abortion rights: men whose wives, girlfriends, and casual sex partners have the audacity to terminate or continue a pregnancy without offering them so much as a veto power. His doctrine of Husband Notification is merely the beginning, the spark from which the fire of men's natural rights to control women's pregnancies will blaze.
Remember ladies, men can't carry an unwanted pregnancy in their own bodies. The least you can do is to give them control of yours.
