    Dude, your timing sucks

    Regardless of the merits of this case, all I can say to Matt DuBay is: Dude, your timing sucks. Claiming you are exempt from child support payments because women have a plethora of choices to terminate a pregnancy, at the exact moment in history when women's choice is under attack nationwide, seems rather unfortunate. How about this: those men who feel economically oppressed by their biology (whew that's rich!) should work their little tails off protecing women's abortion rights and access to birth control FIRST. Once we've established that women really do have a "plethora of choices," and those choices won't be snatched from our grasp by some Fundiegelical activist judge, then we can begin a dialogue about the larger issues of men's parental rights and responsibilites.
