00:00:00.000 Have any of you ever told a guy you were on birth control when you weren't?
00:00:06.000 Isn't that, like, kind of rapey?
00:00:10.000 Yeah.
00:00:11.000 Do you know what I mean?
00:00:13.000 No. Yeah, everyone, like, I think that you have to be transparent about that.
00:00:17.000 Have you ever heard of anyone doing that?
00:00:19.000 Yeah.
00:00:20.000 Yeah.
00:00:21.000 Yeah.
00:00:22.000 First hand.
00:00:23.000 Yeah.
00:00:24.000 Tell me, what did she do?
00:00:26.000 Yeah.
00:00:28.000 She told him that she was on and she wasn't, and she got what she wanted.
00:00:33.000 She got pregnant off of it?
00:00:34.000 Yeah.
00:00:35.000 Yikes.
00:00:36.000 Do you think that in that situation, since she lied, that he shouldn't have any rights
00:00:43.000 to the, or that he should be able to get rid of his rights to the kid?
00:00:47.000 I mean, no, because she lied.
00:00:49.000 So he was, he was performing off of something that, you know, off of the security that she
00:00:55.000 was on it.
00:00:56.000 And she wasn't.
00:00:57.000 So that kind of.
00:00:58.000 No, but I mean, so when he has the kid, or when she had, I'm assuming she had the kid.
00:01:02.000 Yes, she did.
00:01:03.000 Right.
00:01:04.000 So did, do you think that in that case that he should be able to sign off all rights?
00:01:10.000 Because he didn't want the kid to begin with.
00:01:12.000 I mean, when you say it like that, because it's, it's, it's in a way where it wasn't
00:01:17.000 his choice because had he known he wouldn't have made that choice.
00:01:21.000 Um, so when you say it like that, absolutely.
00:01:23.000 I mean, rightfully the kid's there at the end of the day.
00:01:27.000 So I mean, whether he wants it or not, unfortunately that's his seed, that's his future.
00:01:32.000 Um, but yeah, it is in his hands to make that decision.
00:01:37.000 Um, but then it comes into, do you want to be a father?
00:01:40.000 What type of father do you want to be to that kid that you weren't ready for?
00:01:43.000 But now you are a father now.
00:01:45.000 So, yeah.
00:01:46.000 What do you, who, who, who do you know that lied?
00:01:49.000 Oh, I, I know someone that got into a bad situation because they, um, well, they didn't
00:01:55.000 lie that they were on birth control, but they lied that they were bulimic.
00:01:58.000 Um, so they didn't disclose their bulimia.
00:02:01.000 So they're making themselves sick while taking birth control, um, which obviously makes it
00:02:05.000 ill effective.
00:02:06.000 Um, and she, she did get pregnant.
00:02:09.000 And did you keep it?
00:02:10.000 Yeah.
00:02:11.000 Yeah.
00:02:12.000 They, they worked things out and like they're a happy couple now, but, um, it was a big,
00:02:16.000 I lived with them.
00:02:17.000 It was a big point of contention at the time.
00:02:18.000 Do you, do you guys think that should be punishable as a crime?
00:02:21.000 I think it's.
00:02:22.000 Lying to a guy about birth control.
00:02:24.000 Definitely.
00:02:25.000 Yeah.
00:02:26.000 Yeah.
00:02:27.000 A hundred, a hundred percent.
00:02:28.000 Yeah.
00:02:29.000 You take accountability.
00:02:30.000 That's so, sorry.
00:02:31.000 I feel quite passionate.
00:02:32.000 Yeah.
00:02:33.000 It's so unfair on a man.
00:02:35.000 If, if you lie about it, like, obviously if an accident happens, it's an accident.
00:02:39.000 Right.
00:02:40.000 It's both, both parties fault.
00:02:41.000 But yeah, if you lie about it, then yeah, a hundred percent.
00:02:45.000 If it was like premeditated.
00:02:46.000 Yeah.
00:02:47.000 Exactly.
00:02:48.000 It's like coercion in a way.
00:02:49.000 It's similar to like essay of a woman.
00:02:51.000 If you lie about having an STD.
00:02:52.000 It's, I would say that's like a similar thing, but I don't think that means you should sign
00:02:56.000 away all rights to the baby.
00:02:57.000 It's not, it's not the baby's fault.
00:02:58.000 You know what I mean?
00:02:59.000 Yeah.
00:03:00.000 But you don't think if the woman has the right to get an abortion, he should have the right
00:03:04.000 to sign off his rights.
00:03:05.000 No.
00:03:06.000 Cause like, you don't think if the woman has a right not to be a mother, he should have
00:03:09.000 the right not to be a father, especially if he was coerced into doing it.
00:03:12.000 No, because I think if a woman, an abortion is different.
00:03:15.000 Sorry.
00:03:16.000 Like, so if, if a woman's great, I have to say great.
00:03:19.000 Do you, do you think she should be able to get an abortion?
00:03:21.000 Yeah.
00:03:22.000 But I think abortion is different to when the baby is at the point of a baby in your arms.
00:03:26.000 I think that that is your life responsibility.
00:03:28.000 And when you have sex in general, you take the risk, whether someone's lied to you about
00:03:32.000 the risk or not, isn't that that's a terrible thing to happen, but you still take the risk
00:03:35.000 of that 1% of, oh, this woman could get pregnant, even if you think she is on birth control.
00:03:39.000 But what if the woman wants to give up the kid for adoption?
00:03:41.000 Should she have that right?
00:03:43.000 Uh, not if the father wants to keep it.
00:03:45.000 No.
00:03:46.000 Yeah.
00:03:47.000 If the father wants the baby, the father should be able to have full custody and the woman
00:03:49.000 should pay chance for it.
00:03:50.000 No, but I'm saying, I'm saying if she wants to give up the kid for adoption, she should
00:03:53.000 be able to, right?
00:03:55.000 Yes.
00:03:56.000 But not if the father wants access.
00:03:57.000 Yeah.
00:03:58.000 But so I'm saying if he didn't sign up to be a father, like, why should he be forced
00:04:01.000 to?
00:04:02.000 Because isn't it like rewarding bad behavior?
00:04:04.000 No, I think that when every single time you have, every time I have sex with my boyfriend,
00:04:08.000 there is a small percentage chance that I could get pregnant.
00:04:11.000 And we both have sex knowing that that could happen.
00:04:13.000 When you do it with a stranger, you know that that's a small percentage.
00:04:15.000 Yeah, but the women, we're the only ones that can have all the information up front.
00:04:19.000 That's because it's our bodies.
00:04:20.000 Yeah.
00:04:21.000 But that's my point.
00:04:22.000 My point is like, there's no male birth control.
00:04:24.000 So women, we can, when we have sex, like we have all the information.
00:04:27.000 We know if we're ovulating, we know if we're going to take a plan B, we know if we're on
00:04:30.000 birth control.
00:04:31.000 Where the men, it's like they have the option condom or no condom.
00:04:35.000 But even with like plan B, that's not that effective because if you are, plan B only works
00:04:40.000 to delay ovulation.
00:04:42.000 So if you're ovulating at the time that you have sex, it does nothing.
00:04:45.000 Yeah, but there's 41 forms of birth control.
00:04:47.000 And you only can get pregnant like three days a month.
00:04:50.000 There's still, people do it all the time.
00:04:51.000 That's why 16 year olds are pregnant.
00:04:53.000 Pregnant, you know, it's never deliberate, is it?
00:04:57.000 I would beg to differ on that.
00:05:00.000 But I'm saying in this case, it was deliberate.
00:05:03.000 Yeah.
00:05:04.000 So it's just interesting because I feel like if he's not able to sign off his rights when
00:05:08.000 she does something wrong, like why wouldn't she just keep doing it?
00:05:11.000 Why wouldn't women just keep doing it?
00:05:12.000 I just, I don't think that that's a real problem.
00:05:14.000 I don't think women are actually doing that.
00:05:15.000 Oh my gosh.
00:05:16.000 You, you haven't seen the NBA.
00:05:18.000 The NBA issued statements telling the men to wear condoms because all these models
00:05:22.000 were lying to the men about being on birth.
00:05:25.000 Good.
00:05:26.000 It's a real issue.
00:05:27.000 I mean, do you think Drake wanted to get pregnant, a corn star pregnant?
00:05:29.000 That's like a very specific issue based on very, very wealthy men.
00:05:33.000 Like when you have a lot of wealth and you have a lot of like fame, you are obviously
00:05:37.000 at more risk of people taking you to court, of people abusing you in every single way.
00:05:40.000 So like, that's a very specific thing to NBA stars that like your average Joe.
00:05:44.000 But it happens to a lot of men that aren't NBA stars.
00:05:47.000 And I think there's a lot of men that are in, I'd say, comfortable positions that women
00:05:51.000 would want to be in that situation with them and see an opportunity.
00:05:55.000 I think, you know, there's a lot of women out there that sometimes even just get to a
00:05:59.000 state where they become selfish because they might receive news that they might not be
00:06:03.000 able to ovulate as much in the next two years or whatever the situation may be.
00:06:08.000 But for me, I think on both behalves, it is kind of selfish in a sense where I think it's
00:06:12.000 wrong when a woman does that anyway, because that's unfair on the child.
00:06:15.000 Forget about even the man's rights, the rights as a child to be able to be accessible and
00:06:20.000 my parents to both be accessible, I think is so important.
00:06:23.000 So me taking away the opportunity of my child having their father in their life before they're
00:06:28.000 even here is selfish.
00:06:30.000 So before we even get to a point of the man's rights, what about that child's rights?
00:06:34.000 It's 100%, you know?
00:06:38.000 You said you're passionate about it.
00:06:40.000 Why?
00:06:41.000 Yeah, I just don't like...
00:06:43.000 Do you know someone that's happened to?
00:06:45.000 Heard stories.
00:06:48.000 Yeah, I think it's happened to a couple of the boys actually.
00:06:51.000 But yeah, it's just something that is just so unfair.
00:06:55.000 And I just feel that, yeah, men just literally have no right at all.
00:07:00.000 They have no say.
00:07:01.000 And if it is something that's deliberate, for me, I just don't think a baby deserves
00:07:05.000 to be brought up in that type of world.
00:07:07.000 Especially if the father's not ready and it's come from a lie.
00:07:11.000 So I think the baby...
00:07:13.000 I think the dad should have a decision on, you know, what happens to unfortunately the baby.
00:07:18.000 Especially if you're both young.
00:07:19.000 But the dad has had a decision to put a condom on in the first place.
00:07:22.000 Right?
00:07:23.000 And she can poke holes on.
00:07:25.000 That's what it was.
00:07:26.000 Well, I mean, that's going to be pretty obvious, right?
00:07:29.000 If she's going to lie about being on birth control, then, you know, that does happen.
00:07:33.000 People do put pins through...
00:07:35.000 I know it's a rarity, but if you're going to go...
00:07:37.000 They steal condoms.
00:07:39.000 In that case, though, even if, like, a man is coerced into having that child, I still
00:07:47.000 think he's taken the risks anyway.
00:07:49.000 Even if he thought it was a much slimmer chance than it was.
00:07:52.000 And that woman should be treated as if she's treated.
00:07:55.000 But then don't you think in the case of abortion, like, that she took that risk?
00:08:00.000 Like, I'm just...
00:08:01.000 It's just interesting because this sounds like equality when it benefits us.
00:08:03.000 It's not real equality.
00:08:05.000 Because it's like...
00:08:06.000 It's a woman's body.
00:08:07.000 What do you mean by, like, when abortion's involved?
00:08:09.000 So a woman has the right not to be a mother.
00:08:11.000 So if I have an accidental pregnancy, I can terminate it up to six months in the UK.
00:08:16.000 But men don't have the right not to be fathers.
00:08:18.000 True.
00:08:19.000 So it's like, why do we call the man a deadbeat dad, but we don't call the woman a deadbeat mom
00:08:23.000 when she gets an abortion.
00:08:25.000 And so I'm saying if we really want equality, like, why wouldn't we make it equal where the men can sign off?
00:08:29.000 But I think that's like how, again, we'd want an ideal world to be.
00:08:34.000 Do you know what I mean?
00:08:35.000 In the sense where...
00:08:36.000 I would, but she's saying no.
00:08:37.000 Fair enough.
00:08:38.000 But I think that's just society.
00:08:40.000 Like, that's the way society is.
00:08:41.000 And unfortunately, that's...
00:08:43.000 How can I put it?
00:08:44.000 Like, unfortunate on the men's behalf in the world, because that's something that they're out of control of.
00:08:50.000 There's a lot of things I'd say, like in a relationship or in other situations, us women are out of control of.
00:08:55.000 And I think...
00:08:56.000 Like what?
00:08:57.000 Oh, sometimes I think women chase...
00:09:00.000 We want a man to be with us.
00:09:02.000 And it's not until a man decides to commit that we get that relationship.
00:09:06.000 I'd say we're more prepared for them than they are.
00:09:08.000 So...
00:09:09.000 Right.
00:09:10.000 But we can always pick who we go after.
00:09:11.000 So if we go after the top 20% of men who you have to compete for, then it's the balls in their court.
00:09:16.000 But for the average guy, there's men at Tesco down the street that would date you tomorrow.
00:09:20.000 That is so true.
00:09:22.000 But I guess...
00:09:23.000 So it's really in our control, because we pick who we go after.
00:09:26.000 And if you want to go after someone more competitive, it's going to be harder.
00:09:29.000 True.
00:09:30.000 But then I feel like them men sometimes take advantage of the fact that they are part of that 20%
00:09:35.000 and then sell women dreams instead of allowing a woman to actually make that decision for themselves.
00:09:39.000 Like, for example, you might meet a guy, like you said, NBA player, footballer, whatever.
00:09:43.000 He's not the guy down the road at Tesco's.
00:09:45.000 However, he could have children that no one knows about.
00:09:48.000 I mean, look at Khloe Kardashian.
00:09:50.000 As many of you know, I was just banned on TikTok and we are demonetized on a daily basis on this platform.
