Are Women the only true Parents?

by Tryan Hartill

In a thought-provoking post over at Violent Acres, the case is made.

Last year, during Christmas dinner at my in-law’s house, someone asked the Sea Donkey if she was planning on having more children.
My brother-in-law, quickly responded, “Oh, I don’t think so. We already have a boy and a girl. I think 2 is enough for us.”
The Sea Donkey slammed down her glass and gave her husband an icy glare. Through gritted teeth she informed him, “We will be finished having children when I say we’re finished having children.”
My brother-in-law nervously tried to laugh her off, “But you’re always saying the kids can be such a handful now, ha, ha, ha.”
“Shut up,” she snapped, “It’s not your decision.”

She’s absolutely right, too. In this day and age, men have absolutely zero reproductive rights. If a woman wants a child, she’s going to have a child even if it means poking a hole in a condom. When it comes time to plan a family, a man is not allowed to say “enough is enough” or “we can’t afford it” or “I’m not sure I can be as good a Father if I spread myself too thin” lest he be labeled an insensitive clod.

When Andrea Yates snapped and killed all five of her children, Mothers all over the country clucked their tongue sympathetically and blamed the entire tragedy on her husband, Rusty. After all, the nefarious Rusty Yates reportedly pressured poor Angela into having more children than she could handle. It is no wonder she went crazy. What kind of evil, nasty, person forces his reproductive choices on his partner who is so clearly close to the breaking point?

I’ll tell you who does that: Women. Women do that every single day when they demand allowance to plan the size of the family without any input whatsoever from their husbands. The double standard is sickening. If a man asks his wife to have more children because he always wanted a large family, he’s a sexist pig. If a woman does it, she’s simply exercising her biological rights. If a man asks his wife if they can limit the size of their family because he’s stressed out enough as it is he’s…a sexist pig. If a woman does it? Duh. She’s exercising her biological rights. Aren’t men allowed to have biological rights of their own? What happened to the idea that it takes two people to say ‘yes’ to parenthood and only one person to say ‘no?’ Where is the man’s ‘Mercy!’ Card? They don’t have one and they know it so they go along with whatever the missus wants because the alternative is social stigma. Many Father’s are literally terrified of being labeled a sexist/deadbeat/no good/loser/bad father and the fear of that silences them when they should be raging against the injustice of it all. The marginalization of a Father’s role in the modern family is not strictly limited to the choice of whether or not to conceive in the first place, either. Women are considered absolutes when it comes to parenting and they demand a final say in every aspect of the child’s life. They decide the names of the children, the clothes the children wear, the religion of the children, the school the children attend, the dietary needs of the children, and the disciplinary techniques one must utilize when dealing with the children. God forbid a man expresses disagreement with any of her choices or she’s liable to hysterically screech, “What do you know about it anyway? You don’t know what it’s like to have a baby growing inside of your body for nine months!” Unable to argue such an asinine point, a man will surrender and begin the long process of ‘Me-tooing’.

The message is clear: Women are the only true parents. Men are simply paychecks, sperm donors and occasional babysitters…....

I guess I forgot to add one thing. In case you didn’t know the author at V Acres is a woman.

If she was a man, I suppose it would be named “P Acres.”

Nonetheless, this is the kind of garbage that radical feminism has pumped into our heads full of goo for years. I can tell you unequivocally that I do, in fact, do far more parenting than my husband. That is because he is out working at a soul-sucking job so that said children can, um, EAT.

Sure, I could raise them by myself. Get a job. Put them in day care. Would that be better for them? NO. NONONONONO. We have a wonderful existence here, living life because of that sperm donor attached to a pay check. There are many ways to do things, not all of them are the best. For us (and no, I can’t speak for others), this works, and since my husband is a great father, he is indispensible to my children. No question about it.

Well I have two kids and thats plenty for me, Im fixed and proud, if my wife wants more kids she will have to be poking holes in someone elses condoms, and I do believe I am an outstanding father,but my wife is the main parent, I will admit, but when she is at work it is my responsibilty, all and all this is a privilege that we share and love.
