So my GF just told me she is pregnant

I kinda like how he ended it though. One of the more enjoyable troll threads I've seen on here in a while.

8/10

I took off 2 points because your 2nd to last post gave it away too soon. You should have kept everyone on the hook right up until the threesome suggestion.

Over those 55 years, 0 world wars. Over the previous 55 years: 2 world wars. Clearly premarital sex prevents world wars.

I was thinking the same. Troll, you had a good thing going, but you went a little too far...

It's somewhat ironic that in one way society tells men "this is your child and you are equally responsible for it" but in the same breath says "you have no say in anything".

It's more that the man has no say in anything while the woman is pregnant. Once the child is born, the man and the woman theoretically have the same parental rights and the same legal obligation to support the child.

It's true, however, that if you are a man and have sex, after that point you have passed the point of no return as far as your financial obligations to support any resulting child until the age of 18. If you are a woman and have sex, up until you can legally no longer have an abortion you are able to change your mind and avoid future financial obligations.

The "unfair" part of it is just biology: the woman is the one who gets pregnant and carries the baby. The man doesn't. Biology means that the man and woman are not equally situated. There's not an obvious way to make this inherent difference "fair."

This was actually my fake post pretending to be the OP. Copied and pasted the username. Had to keep it in the same style he would have wrote it in. Figured someone would enjoy the threesome part..lol

Make her sing a prenup

This thread makes me want to get a vasectomy. I of course know that females are manipulative, but I don't want them to be able to ruin my life (with full support of the State in doing so).

Children do not ruin your life. In the next phase you will be combing the world for possible adoptees.

This is actually what happened. I did take the other poster's advice and we met at a restaurant. I got a hold of her phone when she went to the bathroom and I checked it. She had bumble on her phone so now I know the kid may not be mine. This is the Only time I have ever been relieved to be cheated on. I told her I want a paternity test, paid, and left. thanks to those that told me to be skeptical.

Keep us posted.

Oh shit, I think you just said that men and women are not equal.

Cue the SJWs in 3, 2, 1.....

Facepalm! There has been an undeclared war on the living unborn human beings that his killed a staggering number of them. The Democrats call it "safe," however.

The reality is that women give birth and the vast majority take on the bulk of the work raising the child. When I see a man step up -- and not just watch the kid a couple of hours a day; I mean 24/7 feeding, bathing, clothing, disciplining, educating, comforting, encouraging, transporting, playing, etc. -- I'll maybe, just maybe, start to feel sorry for how "unfair" the situation is. The OP is going to bail; I know it and the girlfriend knows it. He'll have to help support the child financially (and not just because the government tells him he has to but because it is the right thing to do), but whether she planned the pregnancy or not, she's got the short end of the stick in this situation. If she doesn't know it now, she'll certainly figure it out over the next few years.

To the OP, man up. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. It's not about you anymore. Keep on good terms with the mother. Commit to having a relationship with your child. It's hard work, but it will be worth it. Your child carries you inside; help him or her become a good person. When you wake up in the morning, be the kind of person you can respect. Be a man of character. I'm sorry your life has taken this unexpected turn, but cope.

This is the only true statement in the entire thread.

Wrong.

A true troll on this message board would have said:

"The worst part is hookup girl is bigger than I like, but given I am a scrawny runner who spends all my time when not running or in school in my parents basement, I will take what I can get"

A woman is allowed to abandon her child with no strings attached in some areas. A man can't do that anywhere.

I said that men and women are not equally situated when it comes to the ability to become pregnant, which is a true statement of reproductive biology, not a matter of whether men and women are "equal" as a matter of legal rights, moral worth, or some other concept.

Obviously, I'm defining men and women in terms of physical biology, and not referring to the "men who menstruate" at Brown University or some other definition not based on reproductive organs.

Yes, it is merely coincidental.

Wrong. Safe-haven laws are only limited to women in Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, and Tennessee. In all other states, either parent can abandon the child:

Facepalm! We all know that is a result of people flying on airplanes.
