Most Ridiculous News Story of the Day

CHICAGO, They had sex. She got pregnant. She sued for child support. Now, he's suing back, claiming that men have a constitutional right to "avoid procreation." With the suit, 25-year-old Matthew Dubay of Saginaw, Mich., becomes the public face of a "men's rights" movement that claims men should have the same ability as women to decide whether or not to have children. Supporters of the movement are calling the case "Roe vs. Wade for men" -- a precedent-setting case that could define a man's right to choose parenthood. The case is the first to assert a constitutional freedom to "choose not to be a father" under the equal protection clause, said Dubay's attorney, Jeffery Cojocar.

Is this ridiculous or what?

  1. Simple for him not to be a father, keep it zipped up.

  2. Ridiculous? So are the arguments for abortion!
    Sanger's Sirens opened the door for nutty cases like this through their own efforts.

    Sigh.

  3. This guy needs to return to kindergarten and learn the facts of life. He needs to learn that there are consequences to his actions. What an idiot!

  4. It's hard to believe that there are people who would behave animals and not even consider the consequences of their behavior. Next time, Buddy, keep it zipped up!

    Own up to your mistake now and take responsibility for your actions!

  5. What this means, to me, is very clear:

    Only a few fathers will support children they create. The rest will "avoid procreation" and not support their children.

    The only ones who suffer are the children. But the pro-abortion crowd will use this as another missle in their arsenal when convincing women to have abortions: "The father won't support you anyway!"

  6. This seems to be the way a lot of people think about sex today -- it is only for my pleasure and my own purposes. Pro-creation is an undesirable side effect.
