You missed the whole point,
No. I didn't miss the point. When I had you on ignore, you constantly trolled me with 2 or 3 alt accounts and also copying and pasting posts. I've see you do that to Dan as well. The only reason I saw your troll posts is that I'd occasionally visit without logging in, because Dan had me on ignore and I like reading his posts. The difference between you and me is that I didn't constantly troll Dan after he ignored me. I took the hint and let it be.
I do see that an abortion is a burden for the woman, so to make things fair-ish, it seems that the man should pay for the abortion.
Here are the four possible cases:
1. He wants it, she wants it. No problem, he accepts the responsibility.
2. He doesn't want it, she doesn't want it. No problem, kid will not exist.
3. He wants it, she doesn't want it. He's fucked.
4. He doesn't want it, she does want it. He's fucked.So in 2 out of four cases, her choice is fulfilled, and he is fucked.
So it sounds like the biggest issue to you is her right to choose an abortion. With Trump as president and if Ginsberg retires or passes away, that right to an abortion could go away. If that's what happens, then your possible cases become:
1) they both want it, they both have responsibility
2) he doesn't want it, she doesn't want it. She's forced to birth the baby, but afterwards, they put it up for adoption or abandon it at the firehouse.
3) he does want it, she doesn't want it. She pays child support.
4) he doesn't want it, she does want it. He pays child support.
Other than the aspect of removing a woman's right to an abortion, everyone has equal rights in this situation. What do you think Patrick? Would removing her right to have an abortion be enough for the MJWs?
I would like to congratulate Patrick for creating an internet forum that has apparently become such a big part of the lives of some people.
How would you describe Dan's actions/responses that he does while having me on ignore?
I'd say it's tit for tat, but I don't pay much attention to your feud. If he has you on ignore and you leave him alone, I'd guess he would leave you alone. He might take a swipe or two given your history, but I'm guessing that's it.
And YOU'RE lecturing ME about trolling?
One person put me on ignore once. I've only started one alt account, and that was to create a parody of a red piller. I've never created alt accounts pussyXXX to troll people. I'd say it's pretty safe for me to call you a troll. I'd never be so presumptuous to lecture you on trolling though. You have plenty of personal experience with it, and are probably the board's resident expert. Apologies to Hey You for the dis.
Yet you question what young single men say about the mating market today. That's like a priest giving sex advice.
Had almost forgotten that classic metaphor. Keep up the good work Dan.
Piggy's upset because he tried trolling this thread and got trolled instead. Now he has to drink a bottle of gain alcohol so he can crawl back into bed with his fat pig wife, search for his micro-dick, and pretend he's having sex with a man, which is what he really wants but can't admit to himself. Oh, all the wasted years hiding behind a beard when he could have enjoyed life. Now it's too late and all the single men are a constant reminder of all the things he never had and never will.
You are so ridiculous. You go all Jerry Springer (referenced in your cited article) about men sleeping around, not knowing they have kids, and then it's still the woman's fault that he wasn't there for the child's birth, just so he could abandon the kid at a fire station...
People should pay child support.
No one is saying that a man should not pay child support if he chooses to have a child with a woman and then they break up for whatever reason. However, choosing to have recreational sex is not choosing to become a parent. It's the forcing of your will onto another person that is evil.
Are you in favor of taking away a woman's right to have an abortion?
Men do not deserve to be inflicted with indentured servitude for two decades simply because they dare to have recreational sex. To argue that is utterly hypocritical in a society that allows women to have abortions. Forcing men to become fathers against their will is every bit as evil as forcing women to become mothers against their will and for the exact same reasons.
I laid out a situation where everything is perfectly equal, are you in favor of it or is it still not enough?
I can only conclude that ch_tah2 is so bitterly jealous of men who have sex that he feels the need to punish them severely for it. Does this sound familiar?
Conclude all you want. I view the MJWs on this board as either pathetic losers who live in their parents' basement or fat slobs who have to pay for sex, so we can conclude however we choose.
Are you in favor of taking away a woman's right to have an abortion?
No.
Then it is utter hypocrisy to force men to become indentured servants for two decades simply because they deserve it. If it's not consent to raise a child when a woman has recreational sex, then it's not when a man does, and for the exact same reasons.

We've gone over this before. Yawn.
We've gone over this before. Yawn.
And you still have not addressed the issue. You merely assert "fuck men, they got laid, they deserve to be punished". This is not a compelling argument.
Because I don't fight for the toothless losers who sleep with women who hate them and then bitch about having to pay for their child...
Unless your a rapist, chances are the woman you sleep with likes you. That's kind of why they sleep with some men and not others.
And if men are "toothless" for not wanting to go through with a pregnancy and raising a child they do not want, then so are women, and for the exact same reason.
Are you saying that any woman who gets an abortion is a toothless, despicable, dead beat? If not, then once again, you are being hypocritical.
It all comes down to this. Both men and women have the right to say no, an no means no!
I meant toothless in the literal sense...as in having no teeth.
No you didn't. Now answer the question.
Are you saying that any woman who gets an abortion is a toothless, despicable, dead beat? If not, then once again, you are being hypocritical.
The term "deadbeat dad" isn't around for nothing.
The only deadbeat dad is the dad who agrees to have a child with a woman and then reneges after the child is born. Men who don't want a child, are honest about it, and then have no say as the woman chooses to go through with the pregnancy anyway aren't deadbeats for leaving. They are escaped slaves. You aren't entitled to someone else's life.
Man, I can't believe Dan seems to be less batshit crazy than you
Disagreeing with your opinions is not insanity. Not having consistent, non-contradicting reasons for believing something is.
There is nothing I have ever written that in any way constitutes any form of craziness. Every fact I've presented has either been true, or in rare cases, immediately refuted once I learned it was inaccurate. I may not be perfect, but I'm damn close because I play devil's advocate with every idea I have. I've attacked my ideas far better than you ever could, and I do that before I present them to anyone. This is why I can hold my ground. If I cannot justify a belief against all challenges, then I do not accept the belief.
Can you comment on patrick's 4 points w/ the abortion modification?
Reference what you mean. This has been a long thread.

Tell that to the child...
Exactly (Dan8267):

I would agree that "deadbeat" applies to fathers who were "married" to the spouse and children came as the result. Do note that injustices occur in this situation as well. If the woman does not admit to having an affair and bears another man's child, but the husband is unaware - that husband can be considered the actual father according to the courts if he established a relationship with the child. Especially so if the true father is unknown. This is quite common in the courts, and I would urge every husband to paternity test their children, unless they are willing to live with the potential consequences. Moreover, even if you do a pat test, and are found not to be the bio father, if the child is older the courts have found that they are still responsible since they "acted" as the father for some time. Of course, if you are the male "affair partner", if they can ID you, then there is potential to come back for "back child support" as well.
In all of these cases, the state doesn't really care about the rights of the mother or father - but supposedly has the best interest of the child. However, while that may have applied in a world where most children were born "in-wedlock", that is not the case today. So, things that seem illogical or unfair are really done solely in the interest of the child - regardless of either party's post contraception rights.
I would agree that "deadbeat" applies to fathers who were "married" to the spouse and children came as the result.
Unless both went into the marriage understanding that they wouldn't have children, and then the woman decided that she wanted a child. Some people do get married with the expectation of not having children. This is very common in second marriages.
In all of these cases, the state doesn't really care about the rights of the mother or father - but supposedly has the best interest of the child.
If that's the case, becoming a parent should require a license, and getting that license should require demonstrating that you don't need any kind of welfare or child support.
Dan, you ever going to answer? Or did you lose the post again?
Answer what. I'm not obligated to spend every second catering to you on PatNet. If you have a clear argument or sincere question then present it. I don't avoid issues, but I don't waste my time trying to interpret unintelligible crap.

PatNet doesn't use consistent numbering due to server-side filtering of posts. Quote the post you mean.

I love it when people ignorant of a subject matter get cocky. How does that help me if your #416 and #418 differs from mine?
I thought you were gonna say that if you can't find #417, you probably can't find #416 or #418.
ok, for the third time (this was in response to patrick's 4 options):
So it sounds like the biggest issue to you is her right to choose an abortion. With Trump as president and if Ginsberg retires or passes away, that right to an abortion could go away. If that's what happens, then your possible cases become:

Given the initiative process in CA, does anyone believe we could successfully implement laws/changes that could correct this injustice? Something that would throw a bone to everyone: if you are in a married relationship and have a child, both parties are responsible (this protects the family unit and the taxpayer). IF you are not married (living together or not), then males would have the right to refuse financial entanglement. The female would retain the right to have the child or abort in either case.
The question always becomes what is the taxpayer roll for supporting a "fatherless" child? Let's recognize the fact that the state will not refuse to support a mother and child - period. So, then, how would you craft an initiative process that could actually pass? I know licensing was discussed, but the courts and legislatures are loath to get into reproductive rights licensing, for many of the reasons discussed in this thread already.
I would like to congratulate Patrick for creating an internet forum that has apparently become such a big part of the lives of some people.
Thanks! I don't make money at it, so it's nice to have it appreciated.
If you want to help, share an interesting link from patrick.net with someone, to introduce them to it.
Sounds like piggy is still upset because he has a miserable life and hasn't gotten any new pussy (or dick) in 40+ years. Misery loves company. Trolls are people with miserable lives.
So it sounds like the biggest issue to you is her right to choose an abortion.
Hardly. I'm entirely in favor of women having the right to abort a pregnancy in the first trimester. Read my classic thread The abortion question answered. Turns out, both sides were wrong. I go into exquisite detail on what should be legal and what should be illegal and why.
With Trump as president and if Ginsberg retires or passes away, that right to an abortion could go away.
No chance in hell. Even if a bunch of dumbass conservatives overturn Roe v. Wade, the public wants legal abortions enough to take up arm. There would be people with AK-47s guarding abortion clinics, and the cops won't risk their lives to stop abortions. This is actually an issue the public would get violent to protect. I wouldn't be surprised if congressmen who tried to outlaw abortions were assassinated.
But hey, I'd love to see Trump try. It would motivate the vast majority of Americans against conservatives and the Republican Party.

3) he does want it, she doesn't want it. She pays child support.
4) he doesn't want it, she does want it. He pays child support.
Three and four do not logically follow from abortion being illegal. If the couple puts the baby up for adoption, then neither pays child support. If one parent decides to keep and raise the baby, then that parent is effectively adopting the baby away from the other and still merits no child support. This is true regardless of the gender of the parent who raises the child.
The illegality of abortion would not justify indentured servitude.
Other than the aspect of removing a woman's right to an abortion, everyone has equal rights in this situation. What do you think Patrick? Would removing her right to have an abortion be enough for the MJWs?
I am almost certain that Patrick's beliefs on this issue are identical to mine, which are... Equal rights under law isn't about removing rights from other people. It's about protecting everyone's rights. I am not upset that women get to unilaterally decide whether or not to have an abortion. Yes it sucks for men who really want to keep and raise the child, but since women bear the pregnancy, they must have the unilateral decision of whether or not to continue it.
Equal rights isn't about being spiteful that someone else has something you don't. If there were a just way to give men equal say in keeping the pregnancy, I'd be all for it, but there is not, and I have no spite towards women for that fact.
Making abortion illegal would make the genders equal in the same way that taking away everyone's life would. If we're all dead, we're all equal. Sure, it's equality, but it's equality achieved by taking a step in the wrong direction. Men's rights is not about taking away women's rights, but protecting men's rights and equality under law, at least as much as is possible. Reproduction is the one and only area where perfect equality cannot be reached, but we can get damn close.
So I call for ending slavery in all its forms:
- indentured servitude of men in the form of child support and alimony (and the same for the rare cases where women are indentured servants)
- ending prison slavery (chain gangs, license plate making, etc.)
- economic slavery through exploitation
- subjugation of the public by militarized police
[stupid comment limit]
As for the term men's rights movement, it's just like the term feminism. It has no definition. It has no agreed upon meaning. If you ask a hundred people what the term means, you'll get a hundred different and contradicting definitions. I don't care about nomenclature other than to make communication clear and honest. What matters is the platform being advocated.
I'm a liberal. Liberals believe in
- equality under law. We all have the same rights, and no privileges
- liberty. If you aren't violating another person's rights, you can do what you want. No victimless crimes.
- transparency. The government is owned by the people, not the reverse. What the powerful do needs to be watched by the public, not the reverse.
As a rationalist, I see no point in favoring one gender over another. Half of your descendants are going to be male, and half female. Why screw over either half?
Also, any zero sum games between genders or among ethnic groups are pointless and only serve to decrease the happiness of all groups and individuals.
I'm speaking for myself, but I strongly suspect Patrick agrees with everything I said above in the past two posts.

Let's call it the affirmative consent law, requiring men to give affirmative consent to paternity.
This would achieve equality with a woman's "her body her choice" right to ignore the man's request for an abortion or to give the child up for adoption. Rights which only women have.
If she has the right to refuse responsibility for the baby, he should also have the right to refuse responsibility for the baby. In recognition of the biological reality that it is the woman who physically has to have the abortion, if she wants to abort, the man should have to pay the entire financial cost of the abortion.
Married men should be assumed by the fact of marriage to have given their consent to financial support for legitimate biological paternity.
It is not fair that a woman should have the right to entrap a man with one night sex, obligating him to 20 years or more of financial liability, when she has the right to simply opt out of the same situation via abortion or giving up the baby for adoption. Without a man's affirmative consent to paternity, it's rape.
