No. I can't, and now, thanks to the right wing in my state, women can't either, after a ridiculously brief period of time.

What do you mean you can't? It's still legal as far as I know.

I can’t = I don’t have a woman’s reproductive system, therefore there’s nothing to abort

Women can’t after a short while = Thanks to the state’s Heartbeat Law, this is true

No, and neither would I.

The costs, both monetary and emotional/psychological etc of having a child would be by far offset by the millions I'd make as the only man* in history to have a baby.

*As in man from birth, IIRC there were some "world's first pregnant man" headlines but this was someone who had transitioned from female to male and so had had all the requisite bits since birth.

I thought Arnold was the first pregnant man.

You do realize that our discussion's connection to Gaspar Noé's film is peripheral at best, don't you?

Ain't the first time a forum about a film spins off into something completely unrelated. Usually a political hot topic sets it off. I promise you it was not my intent.
