34. I "know" a few people whose partners did not consider any input from them.

None of the relationships lasted (which was undoubtedly a factor in the first place).

It is one of those things that does happen in real life. If it didn't, we would not have to deal with the "choice" issue in the first place.

People in relationships can disagree about what to do in these situations, and even change their minds about what they "plan" to do versus what they "decide" to do when it actually happens to them. At the end of the day, it is still the woman's choice.

I was very impressed with the original post that his first hide was in response to - the one about "body autonomy" back in July. He couldn't seem to wrap his head around the concept, and went directly to "she didn't give ME a choice". Talk about missing the point....

Sigh.
