  • In Sweden, a law is being proposed that would give men the right to "legally abort" a child. By doing this they renounce all parental rights and duties. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian hosts of The Young Turks discuss.
    Do you agree with this proposed law? Let us know in the comments below.

    “It’s not just up to women to decide whether to have a baby or not, says the youth wing of Sweden’s Liberal Party. It has proposed granting expectant fathers the right to “legally abort” their unborn child up until the 18th week of pregnancy.
    “Men should have an equal right to opt out of parenting and choose whether or not to become a parent,” Marcus Nilsen, chairman of the party’s youth wing West (LUF) told the Swedish Aftonbladet newspaper.
    This means that men are proposed to have the right to disclaim paternity until the 18th week of pregnancy, as long as it’s possible for a woman to undergo the abortion procedure.
    The suggested “legal abortion,” if chosen, would be irreversible and require the father in question to renounce all parental rights and duties, including the right to see his child once it has been born, should the mother decide to keep it.”

    If a woman can abort without the father's consent, then a man can rid himself of responsibility he doesn't want. If a woman can choose not to be responsible after sex, then so can a man. You can't have equality without equality.

      i think there should be more involved with both parties. if say the girl wanted an abortion but someone wanted her to keep the baby as a serogate they should be able to give her money and adopt the child... unless there are potential health risks... i know people in our society shame the process of abortion which is why we have the system we have, but in a better society it would be nice if it was more of a judicial process. Ultimately the woman should have a say in whether she wants the baby or not but i think it should be reviewed and discussed in court. but i know nothing of the subject because im gay and this is nothing i have a big opinion about. im not a girl and im not a straight guy.

      Hmm that is interesting. I am kinda in favour of that. It is a woman's body though which raises a lot of problems like: should a woman be forced to carry a child she doesn't want? May have to skip work to go through the pregnancy, and should the workplace/state pay for that pregnancy leave she didn't want? I think the man should be notified first and be able to give his opinion/his case.

    So...apparently I'm a lot more naive than I realized...
    I thought this was already the law. A woman can get an abortion for any reason during the first two trimesters and if her life is at risk she can have one in the third trimester. At any point during the pregnancy a woman can do practically anything to cause an abortion at home. A woman can decide not to inform the man she had an abortion or miscarriage. She doesn't have to even tell the man she's pregnant or name him on the birth certificate. Women are allowed to use a sperm donor and artificial insemination, without being in a committed relationship. There are Safe Haven laws, which give women safe and secure places to abandon babies no questions asked.
    With all of those choices (and there are probably even more) available to women, this seems like one of the biggest "duh, it's only fair" moments in human history. How is this even a debate? Of course, men should be allowed to "abort the pregnancy". In a society that believes in equality for all, men should have the same rights a woman does with this choice. Since a man can't technically terminate the pregnancy, but they should be allowed to do it figuratively. If a woman can choose to abort for any reason during the first two trimesters, men should be allowed to sign away all rights and responsibilities during that same time period.

    the father's rights are often seen as secondary to the mother's this is why this law is being considered...
    ----------
    this new law would require a woman to notify a prospective father when she's pregnant.
    then the man would be allowed to refuse financial and/or legal responsibility for the child if he doesn't want to be a father.
    Should the child be born despite this then she would be the sole caregiver both financially and by law
    and she might be financially responsible if she doesn't tell the father of the pregnancy in advance
    ----------
    A woman may choose to terminate a pregnancy against the objections of the father.

People love to talk about how if a man doesn't want the responsibility of a child then he shouldn't lay down with a woman. Well the same goes for a woman. If she doesn't want to risk having a child that she either doesn't want, or doesn't want to raise alone, then she shouldn't lay down with a man. It goes both ways. People are ready and willing to hold a man accountable for his actions. As well they should. But equal rights dictate that women be held to just as high as a standard. You can't hold one too high standards, and not hold the other to those same high standards. Being a woman does not excuse a person from personal responsibility.

      the woman that did not use birth control or had sex with a guy that did not wear a condom. Look condoms break, birth control doesnt always work and thats just the unplanned chances. There are females out there that poke holes in condoms or lie about being on birth control to trap men into having a kid. Im not saying guys dont do stupid stuff like pull out and hope for the best but at the end of the day if a man has sex with a woman and he makes it clear he does not want a kid and the birth control fails out of bad luck or a woman doing something to it or saying she is on something and not the man has 3 options at that point 1 be a daddy, 2 pay child support, 3 not pay and hope the law doesnt catch up to them.
      But on the flip side if a woman gets pregnant when she didnt want it but the man really does she can still have an abortion and he cant stop her. She can give it up for adoption and the father can fight for his rights as the father and get the kid. Or have the baby and keep it.
      I get the whole religion doesnt allow for abortion or they dont agree with it because they feel like its murder but there is still the option of putting the baby up for adoption. But a guy has no power in the matter other then saying he doesnt want a kid and the woman gets to pick what "she" wants to do with her body all this law does is give a man the same options a woman has plain and simple... they are not talking about real abortion the man cant force the woman to have one... the man just has the option to give up all legal right and responsibility for the baby if he does not wish to have one. It would also most likely cut down on the number of single mothers when the option to have a man pay child support for a baby he didnt want is taken away and they figure out that they will have to work because welfare probably wont cover it.

    I think this makes sense. If women insist that a man has no ownership of the pregnancy, that implies that the man has no ownership for what happens after the pregnancy; he can't be held responsible for child support.
    It's either:
    A: Man and woman hold equal ownership over pregnancy, the man can then rightly call for abortion or bringing to term. He owns the situation just as much as a woman does.
    B: Man and woman DO NOT hold equal ownership of the pregnancy. The sole ownership of the pregnancy is the woman. A man can rightly then refuse child support, since he has no ownership of that situation. It is solely the woman's responsibility to support the child.

Even though it's as much his off spring as it is her's she is the judge jury and executioner of the trial to decide weather or not an offspring that it took two people to make gets to live. Because it is inside her uterus, what he wants doesn't me jack shit. When it comes to who has responsibilities, that is when the man is somehow more a part of the equation than the woman.

Use protection for both parties then it's almost impossible to get with child. It's called being an adult. Being a responsible man and woman.
      But I am someone who believes in limited government. I think the government shouldn't have rights over people reproductive organs. Are government has at time used force to sterilize woman. Often times women of color. Mostly this happened in the south. Especially in Mississippi. China still does it. Forced abortion... You may not agree but the finals say until that child comes out it's always going to have to be. A woman's choice. The government can't be trusted. Woman need to be responsible.
      My advice to men is the same as my advice to women. If you don't want I be screwed over. Choose your partner carefully. Talk about what you both want. And use protection. Be an adult. This law is only so dead beats can get out of paying. It's only affecting the child. If I am a hypocrite so be it his is my opinion.

It's 50% of either of their genetic material.

Stop acting like it's 100% impossible, because that's how people find themselves in these tense situations. As for cases of rape, a woman should have every right to do what she wants with her own body, and if it's a man, cus rape happens to men too, they should be able to opt out of child support. If you cannot handle the potential consequences of your actions, invest in some high quality "toys." At least THEY can't screw you over in ways you'd rather they didn't.

    I'll agree to this being fair if we also agree that a man who actively refuses or dodges paying child support doesn't have any rights to their child either. This is my biggest problem with the idea that men should be allowed to sign some paperwork and they never have to put a dime towards their child ever again. I feel like if that's acceptable, then it should also be acceptable for a woman who has taken on the financial burden all by herself, then she should legally have the right to decide how much access a man has to a child he's not willing to actually help care for financially.

I finally flat out told him he had ZERO say in anything until he was taking an equal amount of responsibilty in raising our son, and that he coud see him consistently or not all. For the last year, he has continued to refuse to pay child support, has not gotten himself into a stable housing situation so my son could visit him at home, still goes months without seeing him, and his brother in law recently told me he is using drugs again. He suspects meth. My son has alot of attachment issues because of the inconsistancy of his dad in his life. After hearing about the drugs, I decided I've had enough. I texted him and told him never to contact us again, and that I would be filing to have his rights terminated. My son is almost four. I can't watch him do this shit to him anymore, and I'm sick of listening to him brag about being a father when he's done little more than an anonymous sperm donor.

The other side of the coin is the guy who doesn't want to use protection thinks its cool to have lots of kid and leave mom stuck with the bills. I think there has to be a case by case common sense adjudication on the matter, I've seen too many cases of a young woman wanting a child talking some kid into fathering the child, then the boy is stuck with the bill for the next 18 to 20 years. Case in point was the 14 year old that thought he was a real stud when 4 or 5 16 year old girls decided they wanted to have a child each, the welfare authority did paternity test and found out all the babies had the same father, he thought he was a real stud and had no idea what he was getting into.

That is one thing, it is a woman’s right to choose what happens with her body. *HOWEVER* a man should not lose his right to chose what he does with his life or money.

If he asks for his parental rights after the first trimester, he would need consent from the woman to get his rights (or maybe not, I'm not sure).

      @@koliakrasotkin6846 Disagree on that. It should be a pain in the ass for the man to get rid of his parental rights, because otherwise men would have absolutely no consequences for getting a woman pregnant (ie they could lie about having had a vasectomy/being infertile or pulling of the condom), while the woman would still have to go get an abortion if she does not want the child. An abortion is not a pleasant experience (and can be a serious psychological burden for some), the morality of it is certainly not perfect and if we can avoid them without forcing parenthood on anybody we should. Men should have to go to some sort of a council, get advice/information about how parenthood CAN be a good thing etc. Maybe there should even still be some sort of a fee associated with it, nothing that would prevent somebody from getting rid of his parental rights and obligations and if somebody makes very little money they should be exempt but something like a month's salary. This would in part be to pay for the welfare of the children if needed but also to still incentivise men to care about birth control and not just go knocking up women left and right. It would hurt enough for men to not be stupid about it but not actually cripple them financially like actual child support would.
      Additionally if no parental rights/obligations was the default this would lead to a lot of status quo bias, where many men that would otherwise have been happy to be a father could very well end up not being there for the child just because the status-quo is that they aren't taking the rights/obligations. A good example of this is the abysmally low rates of organ donations here in Germany because it's an opt-in system (and if you just ask people about wether they support organ donation the rate is far higher than the amount of people that actually carry an organ donator card) compared to other countries that have very high donations rates because it's an opt-out system with the default being that they will donate their organs. Everybody still has the option to refuse if they are that bothered by it but they have to declare/register it offically and this leads to much less shortage of organs without taking away anybody's choice.
      But yeah women would have to disclose the pregnancy to men in some way that can be proven in order to prevent abuse of the system on that front.

The difficulty with the opt-out system lies in the fact that a woman could hide her pregnancy until the time of the man to decide is over and then demand responsibility from him. The opt-in system would solve that, but it carries other difficulties with it, some of which you very well pointed out (although I think they are a bit easier to deal with than those of the opt-out system). I agree that the part where I said "it is assumed that he won't take care of the child and he has no responsibilities" it's too much. He should have some kind of minimum responsibility that he cannot renounce (like the kind of things you mentioned), but not total responsibility nor zero responsibility. I still skew towards the opt-in system (with some adjustments), but your proposal is reasonable, so I remain open-minded.

I once saw a man who had to pay child support for twins he never knew he had or knew existed he wasn't even allowed to see them until he got back together with the woman. Now the extremely messed up thing here is that the woman openly admitted that she stole his sperm from one of his used condoms took it to a sperm bank and they used it no questions asked. Went he tried to sue they told him it was his fault for not keeping track of his sperm. On a situation like this I would say a rapist should have a forced abortion. A rapist should never raise a child.

      Christina blanco this issue is not an easy one there are a lot of grey areas, in that circumstance I agree that woman is a rapist and should pay fines , jail time etc or at least a settlement.., the children are the victims too, and sorry I don't think state forced abortion is the way in that case. no easy answer

      Mistress Dreama emotions aside if people don't make the hard disions now then the children really will continue to suffer. The only way to eliminate the problem in most cases is to eliminate the consequence (the child) if not these people (most of them not fit to breed to begin with) will destroy these kids lives as a child raised in poverty with abusive parents I can honestly say that abortion seems bad to a lot of people but the alternative is often far worse for the child. However if we simply required a license to procreate and a form of birth control that was not optional until the license was obtained. Or no birth control and simple remove children from parents that don't have a license. Requiring both parents to be licensed would make sure they both wanted to be involved. These are all of course very extreme ways to deal with a problem people should be able to handle but won't so it will eventually get to this if people can't learn. I for one would be willing to forgo a few freedom's to insure a more mentally stable family setting for kids.

    I agree with this. In a situation where women have total reproductive freedom, there is no need to hold men ransom. Each can choose whether or not to be a parent.

      Men can get a vasectomy if they aren’t ready for children but still like to practice without responsibility. Why is it always at the cost of the woman’s body. Pregnancy, abortion and birth are all shitty, I know first hand. But I had to go through it alllllll not an man. They stood by helplessly. I was puking, going to doctors getting probed, feeling like death, dealing with the aftermath of everything emotionally and physically.

    Speaking as a woman (and feminist), I think this is completely fair. This 'opt-out' decision has a timeline, and I think that's the most important factor. Women also have a timeline on when it's appropriate to choose an abortion if they wish, and this makes it so a woman doesn't count on the support of a partner only to be abandoned at the last minute. This allows both parties involved to be able to make the best possible choice for their circumstances as early as possible. Now the responsibility is in the hands of both women and men. Well done, Sweden!

      @ANDELE3025 8 лет назад

      +C C Well, there is adoption which as long as the medical paperwork is dont by standard practice and the couple isnt married and there is no blood test (both things rarely true these days) the mothers also have the full power to put the kid up for adoption (or abort if the father wants a kid but she changed her mind or doesnt anymore).

    • @221B-n2x
      @221B-n2x 8 лет назад

      +ANDELE3025 I agree that adoption is a complicated issue, and I'm afraid that I don't know the best way to handle that scenario. But while a woman having the ultimate right to abort even if the father wants the baby is a very sad situation for the father, the point of pro-choice is that no one should have to carry a baby against your will. I don't believe anyone should have veto power in regards to your personal choices for your body.

      Kinda/mostly true (its not fully just the mothers body, just as responsibility during sex should be, genetics actually are 50%/50% when it comes to the zygote and beyond), IMO best solution is wait for tech to update to the point where it wont matter.

    If the woman has a choice to have the baby in her life the man should too. If the mother doesn’t want the baby she can abort or put it up for adoption. She could give the child to the man if she doesn’t want the kid. If the woman has the choice of not having to deal with the child the man should too.

    I think it's a dumb idea because imagine the man says yes I want you to have the baby and then down the line he denies that he told her to get rid of it how would you prove that he actually did say he didn't want it there are spiteful men out there so he could just not want to pay any child support to stupid law

    Still there can be a lot of loop holes. Like she could leave the state and give birth there without even the guy having the knowledge of kid existing. And guess what, he's stuck because the child's already born.

    You cant have it both ways. You cant say men dont have a uterus and cant have a voice on the matter but also be upset when he wont support the child financially when you choose to keep it.
    Just dont support abortion and you dont have to worry about politicians trying to make it possible for the man to elect not to be a father.
