Men, would you want to get pregnant if medicine found a way?

Ignoring all of the talk of “how” a man would give birth and just accepting as fact for a moment that a man could… Yah I would be willing to do it… I imagine it would be the type of thing you’d have to work out with your wife/partner/whatever.

Oh man. Well, let me think… I would have to sayNO!

Absolutely I would. I’ve said as much on another thread, can’t recall which. Only part I would dread would be the inevitable C section, biological restrictions don’t you know?

I would. I would for sure.

No, why would I do that?

@Blackberry – why wouldn’t you?

HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!

@iamthemob Uhhhh…....Getting a needle jammed in my spine, hospital bills, sickness, waddling like a duck, carrying the weight, pretty much the whole entire process of being pregnant lol. Did I miss something? Is this a wonderful, painless process that everyone is rushing to have done to them now?

@Blackberry – most experiences have an element of pain in them – particularly the wonderful ones. The fact that women continue to do it, and consider it wonderful, despite all of that, is a reason to look past the discomfort when you get to experience your child growing inside you.

Plus, I really hope if the above were possible, you wouldn’t be expecting to have any children at all – given that the reason you wouldn’t do it would have to be explained to the mother. ;-)

No.

When I was younger, I think I would have taken the chance, but right now, my answer is “no effin way!”

I think I would. I’ve definitely sometimes wished it were possible, especially if two men could have a baby together. I’ve always wondered what such a thing would be like.

I figure if my mom did it 4 times, I could at least once… :P

Fair is fair. Just, please, do not give us the monthly issues.

That’ll be a “no.” After seeing what my wife went through, I think I’d rather spend 9 months taking boot camp.

I’d just like to add, my wife loved being pregnant on each occasion. She felt she absolutely blossomed, thrived on the experience. Most of her friends who are Mums felt the same.

No. I already paid for the vasectomy.

Holy shit, it is true. We ARE a big bunch of whiners.

Probably.

yeah,I would love to but I think I won’t do it because I don’t consider myself a person who could be a great parent.

Yes, although Monty Python raises a worry about it.
”... You haven’t got a womb! Where’s the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!”
Edit: But then I guess if you had it in a box you wouldn’t be pregnant…

Does it come with a house. A new car a bank account full of money.

Oh, and a pool girl?

I am living proof of the truth of that old joke that if men could get pregnant they’d only ever have one child each. Been there, done that, and NEVER AGAIN!

@noelleptc Yes, 22 years ago, during my “trying desperately to be a proper girl” phase. needless to say my daughter is an only child.

Nope. I’m don’t have the patience and I’m waaaaaaaay too selfish to have children, let alone carry them in my body.

Nope. I wouldn’t want to go through that.

I would, I would take most chances to reproduce. This is after all what my instinct tells me to do.

My wife and I had twins. I think she would have loved it for me to endure my fair share, especially during the last 4 weeks…

Thanks for your answers!

@noelleptc – I bet it was more like “You need to push out a fucking pine cone” at the time. ;-)

@noelleptc Which end of the pine cone first? With or against the grain?

@Adirondackwannabe – guess. ;-)

ow

you chose…wisely

I’m starting a new nudie magazing called “Lady Business.”

@noelleptc – you can partner up if you want.

@noelleptc I drove myself 25 miles to the doctor with a shattered collarbone and a concussion, but the idea of what women go through intimidates me. :)

My sister bore two children and said that it wasn’t nearly as horrific as the pain of passing a kidney stone. I don’t know any men who have experienced the pain of kidney stones, but I can only imagine that it might be comparable.

Sign me up.

My mom always said that I was like a little mother and that I’d breast feed if I could. After rasing two kids almost single-handedly, I am now ready for the next challenge: it could include pregnancy – if you science types figure out a way. Let me know, Matt.

@seazen :-)

I got a smile from our resident genius. I’m screen saving it. Just saying.

I can’t believe I missed this thread.

Signing up @JilltheTooth ?

I just can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t want to do this. It’s way cool!!!

@JilltheTooth Like I said, fair is fair.

I’ll have the OP’s baby. Just saying.
