This article makes no sense and should viewed as insulting to men. It portrays men as too stupid to know that sex produces children, and that if a man doesn't want children, or doesn't want more children, they're apparently too stupid to figure out how to prevent that from happening.

IF THIS IS TRUE, perhaps we need intensive Biology refresher courses for men throughout life?

More "men as victims of women" BS.

A few facts:

1) Male contraceptives are largely non-existent. Even a condom has an 8% failure rate when used correctly over a year of regular intercourse.

2) If a "mistake" or an "unplanned pregnancy" happens, a married woman can get an abortion without her husband even being notified. If a married woman has a baby, the husband isn't even allowed to have a DNA test to verify that he is the sperm donor for the baby. In any case, even if he immediately divorces his wife, he is stuck with child support payments and the threat of jail for the next 18 years.

In short, yes, an intelligent men not shooting blanks would refuse to have reproductive sex with any woman under current family law. But some still do anyway. It's not that they're stupid. It just that they're grossly oppressed and desperate. And, oh yea, some are married to women who understand the position of men and are working to get men justice. These sort of women might give men enough confidence to want to be a father.

"More "men as victims of women" BS."

I agree,it does make men look like idiots. I also noticed most of the articles to the left on the page. Entitled 'Feminism this', and 'feminims that'.

The true answer to women's independance is to destroy child support laws and enforcements.

Convincing women that they deserve money, or they are entitled to it only makes women dependants and not freee and liberated adults.

I believe this is both a men and women's movement.
