If all things were the same, but it was men who fell pregnant and gave birth, abortion clinics would be so standard they’d be on every corner, like McDonald’s. In fact, it’d be a sign of status to go to one.

Male 1: “I’m just off to the abortion clinic real quick.”

Male 2: “Oh nice, King. You’ve been busy.”

Male 1 leaves.

Male 3: “He’s so cool.”

    I kind of think there should be a constitutional amendment preventing legislatures from passing laws restricting the rights on a protected class. Like men can’t vote on laws which take rights away from women. Or straight people can’t pass laws banning LGBTQ material.

      Oh but this law that removed rights to free speech and voting from women is not actually about removing any rights, it’s about protecting them from domestic violence!

        That’s fair, maybe of a different demographic (race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc… ) is better.

      An interesting idea.

      Maybe a whole host of homophobes would pretend to be gay to vote against something, but then realise they actually like this little “pretend” thing. They’d commit to it.
