Okay, it does makes sense. You don't want others telling you what to do with your body, that's fine, you know? A unilateral power over whether a baby lives or dies is with it's mother because it's her body and it's her choice, which is fine, but what happens when a woman gets pregnant and the man she had sex with does not want to keep it but she does?
I mean, obviously, you can't force an abortion, so what do you do for the guy? So my position is that the guy should be able to opt out of parenthood in that situation, so like, no parental obligations whatsoever, it'd be like it isn't even his kid.
Anyway, that's my position, I think that's fair to everyone involved but I was wondering what pro-choice supportive folks think about it.
Are you supportive or not supportive of it, why?
Bold is mine-
That's not even a theoretical scenario, some guys already do that after the baby comes along. Instead of thinking ahead and putting on a condom, they just walk away from their progeny, sadly.

With modern feminism, the goddamn woman can take care of herself and the child without any assistance from the man.
Ay! It's called child support, not "goddamn woman" support...sheesh. If you can't feed them, don't breed them.
