Thank you laureen for bringing up the male half of the issue.  I am so sick of reading all of the hate toward women who decide to have an abortion, as well as women who decide to have children they cannot afford to care for.  The woman does not get pregnant by herself.  Why isn’t there a heated discussion about the lack of responsibility on the part of men to care for their children, or maybe take the necessary steps to avoid making a female pregnant?  Are the men somehow excused because biology has given them a stronger sex drive?  It’s not just the fathers who should be teaching their sons about sexual responsibility, it is also the mothers.

Some fantasies should not be verbalized.  The woman on woman action is one of them.  My husband got quite the chuckle out of the man’s request, and was surprised at the negative comments from the women on this site.  My response to the old goat would be to provide a little man on man action for me to view, and then perhaps if he was lucky I would think about it.  What a turnoff………..he needs to stop before the turnoff cannot be turned off.  The dressing up stuff can be fun for both, but the pressure to perform an act one is clearly not interested in is all wrong.

JJ,

I respectfully disagree.  She, Nadya, may decide to do this again.  Heaven forbid other women see this as a path to being a celebrity, and try it themselves.  Looking at the big picture and putting appropriate limits in place will prevent this from happening again.  The children are primarily her responsibility.  If she can’t care for them as she should and as she claims she will, they should be taken away, put into the foster care and Nadya should be appropriately punished for child abuse.

In addition to caring for the children, I believe it is important to focus on the situation that created all of those lives.  Let’s face it, this was not an act of God but an act of science and choice.

Isn’t Bill O’Reilly the buffoon who made comments about an abducted adolescent, Shawn Hornbeck, liking the circumstances of living with his abductor and preferring it to living with his parents? I’m not sure if Bill’s comments illustrate how much he cares about childrens’ safety, or how much he cares about his TV ratings.  Did he ever call himself a Pinhead over those comments?

Roger, you are so correct. Elisabeth is the “Duchess of Diversion.” When she is unable to add meaningful conversation and/or debate to the topic at hand, she diverts the conversation to another topic. Just happens to be a topic she is “passionate about.” During political conversations it is usually, “well what about (pick a name from the opposing team).” Elisabeth is capable of making some occasional good points, but the majority of the time she displays her immature and undeveloped conversation and debate style. Hey, a lot us on this site have the same problems!! How unfortunate that her public tantrums on Youtube will be a bad example for her own children.

Donald, Go duck yourself.

C Hardy….Fathers are quite capable of giving the talk. My father gave me the talk when I started my period. My mother died a year before it started. He was an introvert, and it was tough for him, as he admitted when he started the talk. Of course there was nothing about the mechanics of sanitary products, but I got a talk that included a lot about the male sex drive, as well as dating, young love, sexual urges, manipulation, commitment, responsibilities, accountability and much more. He answered all of my questions.

Whenever I hear or read the term prolife, I always wonder how inclusive it is. Does being a prolifer mean that someone is also against war, against capital punishment, and against any other act that takes human life at any age?

Public schools, police, fire, library, roads, parks, and more are all paid for in the property taxes assessed in the state in which I live. That assessment is based on supposed property value, not the number of people living there. As a matter of fact, people receive federal tax deducations for their children, so someone with children will pay less federal and state tax than someone without children who earns the same amount. I believe it’s rather naive to take the approach that “paying” for children is something only the children’s parents do. We all pay, whether or not we have children.
