Men are ALREADY handmaidens.
I'm sure that by now we have all heard of the book, the movie, and the SNL parody clip, "The Handmaiden's Tale."
Let us start with the basics. Do you support a woman's right to choose? Legally, yes, absolutely. No question. Just like I fully and unconditionally support a man's right to choose.
Just because a woman has sex, does this mean she automatically consents to everything up to childbirth including fertilization, zygote implanting to uterine wall, legally becoming pregnant with a fetus, continuing the pregnancy, carrying the pregnancy to term, and proceeding with childbirth? And after that, keeping the child, then doing all the work of feeding, bathing, cleaning, and raising the child?
No, of course not.
Just because a man has sex, does that automatically mean he forfeits his earnings, his labor, his livelihood which he earns with his body and his mind, to support a child that he didn't consent to have in the first place? Does this mean he automatically consents to having his wages garnished, that is, a large portion of his livelihood whisked away from his paycheque before he ever even sees it? For the next twenty-one (21) years?
His only options are either pay up or go to jail.
There was a male birth control in the works. But research on it was halted. By feminists.
Let us try a little thought experiment. let us suppsoe a woman gets an aboritoyn. fair enough. she denfietint had sex. she may or may not have usedf birth control, or perh the birth control fialed.
she chooses not to carry this pregnancy to term, inste4ad choosin to abroth the fetus. this is abosltuely wihtin her rights as an automnoumnys human being to do so. she does not have to vbear the burden of an unwatnted pregnancy. as is right; a woman should not and cannot be under any soical or moral obrliation to carry a prennagy to term if she does not want to. she does____
but she shoul dhave to pay a sset amount every motnth, to the state. to commence from the date that the theoretical fetus would have been born. this payment she makes commensurate with her pay rate from her job.
if she protests and objects to this payment, too bad. it is not up to her.
is she does not volutnarily [[__give up, sacrifce, relent?? relinquish ]]] a portion of her paycheck towards this payment to the state, her wages will be forcibly garnished.
well, don't lose hope. maybe she might not have to. ..erm so how do we find out if she does have to or does not have to? eh, shrug. eh, flip of a coin. maybe she'll have to pay for the next eighteen years, maybe the arbitray entity somehwer out thre will decide whether or not the woman has to pay for the next eighteen years and nine months.
at this point the owman might be thinking, '''what the hell?? I did not choose to do any of this. what is this bullsht?! I termintated it! I got rid of it! this is mysogyny! I got rid of the pregnancy, as was withing my rights to do so. I should not have to pay anything! what the hell am i paying for?? and who the hell is getting this money?!
the logic is sound. she had sex and unfdruatnely a fetus was created. she had taken precautions to prevent conception, or so she thought. howerver the precaurtions failed her. she made the decision to terminate the prehnancy, all of which were well within her rights. doesn't matter; a fetus was created in time and space. so now she has to pay the price for the next eighteen years (begiining at the theoretical birthdate.) she did not[[??]]
This is exactly what men are forced to do, every single day in western countries. Why should we not impose the same regulations upon women?
Perhaps we should call men "handbutlers," seems more apropros gender-wise.
Another note: I can predict that a lot of women will claim that work and pay are not a big deal because it can't compare to bodily autonomy that women give up during pregnancy.
Really, work and pay are not a big deal? Then why do you care that women only make 70c to every dollar a man earns? After all, work/wages are not a big deal.
And fyi, that statistic is false. The U.S. Department of Labor has conclusively proven that the ratio is more like women earn 99.999c to every dollar a man earns. In my opinion, this is perfectly just and justified, due to the fact that women universally (that is, in every culture, society, and nation around the world) expect men to financially support them.
