Enough discrimination, Men should have the right get pregnant too!
Come on men, why should women be the only ones to get pregnant? It's like their own special thing that only they can enjoy. They get to have all the fun, and not let us in on it.

I've had enough of these feminists talking about choice. And all these elitists talking about "uterus" and "biology" and other forms of dark-sided witchcraft. They say men can't have babies? Well why the hell not? We should still have the choice! That's equality.

You're not pro-choice if you're against male pregnancy. Stop trying to keep half the population down!

Everyone should have the right to pregnancy. There shouldn't be any discrimination based on gender. Doesn't anyone care about freedom and equality anymore? This is outrageous! This should be our winning issue in every election. We'll lock up the male vote for sure!

:silly: :crazy: :dunce:

Oh DU, you know my views on feminism. There's nothing sexier than a liberated woman. :loveya:

Watch Life of Brian http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/ It's Monty Python's spoof of Jesus from 1979.

1. Been done with large apes. Should work for human males
Choice of c-section vs natural delivery might be unlikely though.

3. I have sympathy pregnancies...
I'll periodically grow my belly really somethin' big and then get rid of it.

This time I'm going to keep it down as I have lower back problems... just need more exercising of that area, I wonder how I can achieve that... :think: :evilgrin:

30. I've got an idea
Suppose you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody's fault... but that he can have the right to have babies.

6. If men could get pregnant
there'd be government-supported abortion clinics in every shopping mall.

21. Churches, actually - Rose Kennedy had it right
If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament”
Rose F. Kennedy

A friend who is an OBGYN wants to open a drive-through PAP smear clinic.......... but he is a sick, sick man.....

20. Yes, here, PLEASE, take mine.
I'd be more than happy to let men experience this instead. I mean, in the name of equal rights for men, it would be the perfect experience. Please, take mine.

15. Ya know.....

Think about it!

19. Hey, be my guest.
You can have one for me when I get ready to have children. I'll pass on the experience. I just don't like pain and from what I have heard, it's like passing a bowling ball while someone pulls your bottom lip over your head. Thanks, but no thanks for me.

23. Sure. I guarantee a drastic drop in the birth rate!
I distinctly remember, during my labor and delivery, telling the attending nurse "Breathe??? Fuck you!! YOU breathe!!!!!!! I want some fucking DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!"

My ex was in the room and says I was a little more emphatic than that :evilgrin:
