Why don't men raise babies, why do women get screwed?

Question

Why don't men raise babies, why do women get screwed?

Answer 1

because women want the bad boy, instead of the nice cool a little dorky guy who graduated with a 3.5 gpa. so when they get screwed by the "bad boy" there surprised; women thats why there the bad boy cause there bad lol didnt the name give it away

Answer 2

Well, I don't know if you mean s*x screwed or life screwed.  Many women enjoy raising their kids.

I agree that it should not be assumed that the female will raise the kids and slowly things are changing and men are taking on more responsibilities of child-rearing and finding out that it is rewarding and that they like it.

One thing happens at childbirth to women that does not happen to men.  After the baby comes out in a vaginal birth the woman's body gets a rush of oxytocin - called the love drug, because it causes the mother to form a strong loving bond with the child.  The father does not.  Women who have induced labor are given the chemical equivalent of oxytocin - pitocin, which may or may not have the same effect.  It also starts violent contractions which put undue stress on the child, and that sometimes leads to a Caesarean Section, that would not have been needed if labor was allowed to come at it's natural time.  

The mother also breast-feeds the baby, developing a habit of care.  Certainly the b*****s can be pumped, and the man can share the joy of feeding the baby with a bottle.

It seems like you, at least at this time in your life do not want a child.  I hope you did not have an unwanted child, due to unpleasant circumstances in your life.  

Men can and should share in child rearing.  It is so important for the father to be in the child's life, and it is a joy for the man to raise his own children instead of giving the job over to his wife.

Answer 4

I was raised in a traditional family where the father/husband worked outside the home and the mother raised the children,

I work 60 to 80 hours a week and still help with houseold chores including caring for an autistic child.

My wife chose to be a stay at home mom and I support her decision

Answer 5

Because women are designed by nature to raise babies.  Women have the equipment for it, whereas men do not. And although it may come as a shock to you, many women actually enjoy it.  Not all women want to dump their children in daycare while they spend all day in the office.

if you don't want to have babies, don't have them.  Nobody's forcing you.

Answer 6

Screwed? Lots of women marry a man, then just sit at home eating candy in front of the TV while the man works and brings home the money. So how do women get screwed?

Answer 7

Men are not allowed to; I've been fighting just to have visitation rights with my son.  I used to change his diapers and loved being with him.  

Every political movement

hurts innocents and there is a whole generation of boys/men hurt by feminism.  

I've been thru divorce court...the laws are against men/fathers.  My ex-wife get's a free attorny and the laws don't pertain to her.  She has teflon and can hit me, lie, cheat, steal, etc without getting punished.  

Look at the media; what percentage of shows (including tv commericals) show a guy getting hit, beat, slapped, yelled at or acting stupid?  If they did that to a woman the show/tv commerical would be cancelled.  

Women in the USA have superior rights today.

Heck I have to fight for child visitation and my ex-wife doesn't have to listen to the judge...never did,

never will.  I've missed all the major holidays with my son (including his birthday) since he was 2 1/2.

She doesn't have to pick up the phone (telephone visitation) and has 100% control of my son.  She financially wore me down and I can't afford a lawyer anymore.  She used to hang around with feminists.

Answer 8

men do raise babies. what your doing is stereotyping. women are probably better at it but men raise them. and what do you mean to get screwed? but i think that has to happen to create a child.

Answer 9

Women dont HAVE to have kids, and thats a really bad generalisation. There are plenty of stay at home dads.

Answer 10

maybe since women birthed them they think it's only natural they care for them?

Answer 11

Some men do raise babies-they're house husbands.

But you're right-in the US and many countries-women still on average-do more of the household chores and child care-even if they also work full-time. Sexist ideas die hard-and our work culture penalizes men and women who put their families first.

Answer 12

To Vincent- why don't you trying staying home with the kids- there is no time to watch tv

Answer 13

Its the easiest route for the men.

Otherwise their careers would suffer TOO.

Women aren't after "help" because that assumes raising children is their responsibility alone.  Its not: men need to shoulder much more of the actual burden, like...ohhhh... HALF of it.  Even in 2008, women continue to do the bulk of household chores even when they work fulltime outside the home.

Answer 14

It's 2008 and you have the right to choose.

Don't want a baby? Have an abortion.

You have reproductive freedom, why are you still complaining?!

Sheesh!!
