St. Petersburg, 8 June. A man has no right to influence a woman's decision to have an abortion.. This opinion was expressed in an online broadcast Patriot Media Group feminist Olga Lipovskaya.
"It is hard to imagine, how to influence. Have children, when there is an agreement between a man and a woman about this. If a woman does not want children, then a man has no right to interfere in her decision.”, - the popular journalist and translator is sure.
She extends the same opinion to the situation about pregnancy as a result of a casual relationship., when a woman doesn't want, and the man wants to keep the child to himself. And in this case, considers Lipovskaya, a man does not have the right to insist on his decision and look for opportunities to oblige his partner to give birth to a child.
“If we are talking about an incubator - yes, and here we are talking about a woman - a man. Why should she be an incubator? the feminist asks. - If surrogate motherhood - here is the contract. A man is involved in the process of creating a child, but nature infringes on his rights. Woman filing for child support, if she needs money to raise a child. This is about responsibility., not about law.
Abortion should not be fought with bans, sure speaker FAN. More important, in its opinion, competent sex and sexual education and education.
"Both partners must understand the consequences of sex".
Lipovskaya sees a problem in this area in the fact, that education in this area of relations between the sexes is hindered by "religious structures".
“Our church opposes that, to educate children, how to use contraceptives.
She recommends introducing sex education in schools.
According to the feminist, coercion is not a rational solution to the abortion problem.
“The abortion ban has never been an incentive to increase the birth rate. It takes place in that society, where people are confident in the future of their children, but we don't have it. Fertility is an anachronism, - the journalist says. We are not talking about birth, but about the number of babies.
All the rhetoric about abortion, noted the speaker of FAN, comes down to accusations, that a woman kills a child.
"Not! She removes the germ, who did not become human, — a confident feminist. - The brain is not formed in the fetus until 14 weeks, the baby is already conscious. Question, at what time can a pregnancy be terminated, discussed for a long time, in the US they said, eg, that until the 38th week you can ".
As a representative of the feminist movement, Olga Lipovskaya believes, that the problem of abortion, as well as a number of other problems of relations between the sexes, could solve the program of "positive discrimination" - quotas for equal occupation of positions by men and women in public administration structures, in company management, and in all areas of activity, traditionally considered masculine.
“Women should be equally represented in international journalism, and among astronauts, among car mechanics and carpenters, - she says. — Quotas can be used as a temporary measure, given the Russian mentality, where authority and power are sufficient motivation, for the people to follow".
