cococandy: No need to apologize. You can't bully a veteran bully. I think I read somewhere where you said your feministic views starts and stops in Nigeria and that part of the world. Don't you think what Nigeria needs is development and education, not feminism? I'm pretty sure in the country's constitution, women have same rights as men. Most folks that have chauvinistic views are greatly influenced by culture and religion. I highly doubt that a well educated man will leave his daughter out of his will because she's female. The laws are there to protect these women, but who do we have to enforce the laws? No one. That's where my development angle comes in. Also, poverty and hunger make women in Nigeria do degrading things to themselves. Women there see marriage/man as a ticket out of poverty. That's why men treat them like they do. So, how does feminism come into play in all of these? 3 Likes |

yes, it is..... her life would be much worse if she's just single without a child. single mothers get the highest priority. all the benefit scroungers living in £1m mansions funded by tax payers in the UK are all single mothers. without their children, they would be in a one-bedroom council flats.

coogar: No, it is what you read into it. All I said was that they are not representative of ordinary people and of the majority which consists of ordinary people. yes, it is..... What you are saying here does not make sense at all. A single mother who lives on the bredline would be worse off without a child? Like seriously? A single POOR mother gets the minimum from the baby father, around 200 pounds, I guess, FROM WHICH she has to feed and cloth the child and from which she also has to pay for school books, class trips etc so how would she be worse off without the 200 and without the child? Sorry Coogar but this was one of the most illogical comments ever. single mothers get the highest priority. all the benefit scroungers living in £1m mansions funded by tax payers in the UK are all single mothers. So the 43% of single parents whose children are poor live in 1m mansions? Do your comments make sense to you? without their children, they would be in a one-bedroom council flats. 43 per cent of single parents are social housing tenants compared to 12 per cent of couples (20) http://www.gingerbread.org.uk/content/365/Statistics Get your facts right, please that's the harsh realities of staying in london. you pay more! Nobody forces you to. size is not value in london. stop using your mgbeke tinted lens to look at things. there is a parking space that can only contain one car in london that cost more than all the houses in your entire street wherever you stay.

carefreewannabe: even if they make just 1% of the population of ordinary people, is it fair for them to be saddled with unwanted pregnancy? do a set of people have to count as the majority before they should be catered for?
yes, she is. a single mother of one gets a 2-bedroom house or flat. if she's childless, she might be given a room. a single mother gets child maintenance every week from the tax payer. if she's single, there are no such perks & she gets no priority in housing. she waits on a long queue before she can get a roof over her head.
she gets free vouchers, maintenance fees, perks, etc lets just say the government rewards her promiscuity.
i think you are bereft of logic..... i said all the £1 million pound mansions funded by the taxpayers are occupied by single mothers. it's a different statement to "all single mothers stay in £1m mansions" coogar: all boko haram terrorists are muslims carefree: all muslims are boko haram terrorists! your logic is baffling!

cococandy: they do. All the time. Really? An educated man segregating his own daughter? You're reaching. There are laws to protect women, the problem is no one to enforce them. If a woman feels she's discriminated against because of her gender, she can sue. However, would the law enforcement take her seriously? Nope. Why? They've all been bribed by the company. You think men don't get discriminated against too coz they're igbo, hausa or yoruba? which court will they take the case to? We can't even enforce basic human rights, talkess of feministic rights. The foundation isn't there; which is development and education. Campaigning as a feminist in Nigeria is like having a a roof with no foundation, where will you place the roof, when there's no structure? Hunger is a great weapon; so long as there's hunger in the land, women will continue to exchange their bodies for money; it's the easy way out. As long as there's no accountability, lecturers will continue to sleep with female students. Give Nigerians a dignifying ticket out of hunger and poverty, and everything will fall into place. 2 Likes |

coogar:you do know child support is paid according to the needs of the child that can actually be proven and not something that comes out of the ass of the person who has custody of the child, again i ask you show me where it says the word parent only refers to the father? Both parents have a legal duty to cater for the financial needs of a child. Never was it ever made the sole responsibility of the father (not even according to English law). So stop acting as if the word parent only applies to the father. Then again maybe jobless grown assss women are your type that why u keep making it seem as if the man is the one who is solely responsible for child support. Then again even if a woman doesn't have a job she will have to prove to court that she is incapable of working or she cannot get a job, thats why she can't support her own child financially 3 Likes |

coogar: No, it is not fair but I am sure they know how to take care of themselves. yes, she is. She gets an additional room because there is an additional person. The room is for the child. a single mother gets child maintenance every week from the tax payer. if she's single, there are no such perks & she gets no priority in housing. she waits on a long queue before she can get a roof over her head. It is all done in the child's best interest and there is nothing wrong with a society making children a priority. And now tell me how much child maintenance a mother gets from the tax payer weekly. she gets free vouchers, maintenance fees, perks, etc lets just say the government rewards her promiscuity. Again! It is done for the child! A child should not suffer because MOTHER and FATHER are failures. You are so gender-biased and focused on women that you fail to consider what is best for CHILDREN who are INNOCENT. i think you are bereft of logic..... Proof! coogar: all boko haram terrorists are muslims No! This is Coogar logic. All single parents profit from being single parents. your logic is baffling! At least I have logic. i have addressed your lack of comprehension skills in the comment above. I guess you have forgotten how you have misunderstood some of my comments you are the one complaining, you are the one that brought it up. surely, you are the one forced to mention a topic that has nothing to do with the discourse.

Both parents have a legal duty to cater for the financial needs of a child. Never was it ever made the sole responsibility of the father (not even according to English law). So stop acting as if the word parent only applies to the father. nah - child support is calculated based on the income of the man. if the child of a school teacher and the child of a millionaire have the same needs, they will not get the same child support income.
why don't you find out the percentage of the custody battle won by women. 71% of the cases are given to women. that's more than 2 in every 3 so what's your point? The percentage of lone parent households that are mother-headed in the UK is 91% [General Household Survey]. There are some 40,000 disputed custody cases every year which are decided by family court judges. These judges will listen to recommendations from court welfare officers who visit the family and write 35,000 reports every year. The welfare officers work in the probation service which deals with mostly male criminals, this makes it difficult to see fathers in a positive light. The result is that family courts award mothers sole custody in 71% of cases and fathers sole custody in 7% of all cases, joint custody is awarded in the remaining 21% of cases. Many fathers report giving up an expensive custody fight for their children after advice from lawyers who say they can't win. It is very common for mothers during custody battles to receive state funded legal aid. A custody battle is therefore a very unequal war of attrition. Many fathers report that efforts to have contact with their children are blocked by mothers, and the courts will not enforce the right of children to have contact with their fathers. need i say more? 2 Likes |

coogar: Lets make this easier for both of us. Before we all agree that men should not be forced to maintain a child he did not plan to have, kindly tick the points any mentally sound man doesn't know before engaging in sexual activity 1.) condoms aren't 100% safe 2.) condoms break 3.) a woman can get pregnant is she has sex 4.) contraceptives do not guarantee a 100% of a woman not falling pregnant 5.) a woman can still fall pregnant, whether you want to marry her or not 6.) babies only come after a man and a woman have sex. 7.) engaging in sexual activity with any woman may result in pregnancy or STIs 8.) the withdrawal method is not 100% effective. If a mentally sound male doesn't know all of this by the age of 12 then we can all say screw every woman's right to life, human integrity, bodily and psychological integrity that where created by whichever assshole who came up with International Human Rights. Every woman should abort, whether there is a possiblity of her dying from it or not, since all that matters is the fact that the father doesn't want to live up to his responsibilities 3 Likes |

carefreewannabe: if it's not fair then why argue at all?
except that she doesn't give the other room to her child in most cases. she rents it out and make extra income. that option is not available without the child. the average rent of such rooms per month is about £400.
it depends on the number of children she's managed to have had with as many men. there is a woman making £40,000 per year on benefits alone but she has 9 kids. £40,000 per year is N10m & that puts her amongst the top 10% of the highest salary earners in the whole of britain.
and i am telling you women deliberately drag these innocent children into the equation to enjoy the perks government is dishing out like father christmas. in the UK, a lazy woman can get pregnant on purpose with a homeless man every year & start claiming benefits. how is that not premeditated?
i never said that - you are the master of twisting what people say. there are single mothers who don't even collect a dime from the father of their child but the system has a loophole that gluttonous women are taking advantage of!
no you don't! that A can be B doesn't mean B can be A
you are the one finding it hard to apply logic. all the £1m houses occupied by single mothers doesn't mean all single mothers stay in £1m houses.

It is 2014 people! Women can be very deceiving when it comes to getting pregnant. Ruining a man's life in most cases because of their own vindictive plans to trap the man. I know a woman who told a man her doctor told her she couldnt have children. She lied to him and got pregnant as she was 40 and desperately wanted one. She should be put in jail! I'm a woman by the way. I've had an abortion myself and its really not that big of a deal. Its not ideal, but it was for the best. It was the best decision I could have made at the time for myself and the father. I do not regret it at all. Its 2014 people and there are options now. Unfortunately its only a woman's option. Men should not be obligated to pay child support if woman declined abortion outside of marriage. Men should have a choice in the matter....End of story! There are too many people on the planet as it is. Stop reproducing...We dont need unwanted children in this world! And what are we teaching new children that see this happening. Oh its okay to be irresponsible as a woman...Just have it and sign a paper so the daddy is broke forever so we can have a nice life. Is this what you're teaching new generations of female children?Women have the responsibility of their own bodies NOT to get pregnant, and I truly believe if they cannot do that then men should have rights. This would weed out the men who will be responsible and pay support and the ones who don't want to. Its really very simple. There has to be something in place to deter women from having unwanted pregnancies. This would be it and its fair as well. Seems an obvious choice. http://www.debate.org/opinions/should-the-father-have-to-pay-child-support-if-he-wanted-an-abortion 2 Likes |

coogar: I only said that giving examples of celebrities does not make much sense as they are not representative of the majority. We are arguing the question here if a man is responsible for a child he did not want and as you can see there are different perspectives. I consider the question from a child's perspective. I don't care about fathers who sleep with mad, classless, umambitious women. It is not the child's fault. except that she doesn't give the other room to her child in most cases. she rents it out and make extra income. that option is not available without the child. the average rent of such rooms per month is about £400. So living in a two room apartment with three people is good business? If a man sleeps with women who think that living with three people in a two room apartment is a good business opportunity to earn four hundred pounds then it tells me a lot about the class of people he interacts with and the type he must be it depends on the number of children she's managed to have had with as many men. there is a woman making £40,000 per year on benefits alone but she has 9 kids. £40,000 per year is N10m & that puts her amongst the top 10% of the highest salary earners in the whole of britain. Any man who sleeps with such a woman is to blame and to take the responsibility for his carelessness. and i am telling you women deliberately drag these innocent children into the equation to enjoy the perks government is dishing out like father christmas. in the UK, a lazy woman can get pregnant on purpose with a homeless man every year & start claiming benefits. How many women are like this? Majority? Are these women reason enough not to consider the children a PRIORITY? i never said that - you are the master of twisting what people say. there are single mothers who don't even collect a dime from the father of their child but the system has a loophole that gluttonous women are taking advantage of!
