Anyone telling women what they can or cannot do with their bodies should take a biology course.

A woman cannot get pregnant without the help of male sperm. Instead of punishing only women for unwanted pregnancies, men should play a prominent part.

I suggest any man who impregnates a woman should be responsible for the support of the child from birth to adulthood. If a man reneges on his responsibility it should be an automatic  mandate for him to have a vasectomy.

I’m sure the taxpayers would relish the lower cost of a vasectomy as opposed to supporting a child for 18 years. That would surely put a stop to the abortion issue.

Thank God we don’t live in Texas.
