    And that was my whole point, I was reacting to V0ldek’s: “being inseminated by…is the least consequential thing”, which they proposed was not important from the child’s point of view. I wanted to point out it’s rather different (in a bad way) from the woman’s point of view.

    Is that a bad thing? Where did I go wrong in expressing myself? Or did I misunderstand V0ldek’s comment?

      starter tip: stop talking about women as if they don’t have any agency, and stop using them as a reasoning device in your unnecessary posts

        To be fair they all too often have less agency about getting pregnant than they should, and getting pregnant is something women may fear or dread depending on the circumstances such as “was it rape” “is he abusive” “that’d really fuck up my career that is finally getting going” and “am I in Texas or Florida or Georgia or…”

        Also, accidents happen, probably even with birth control defense in depth.
