You don't have a kid with someone who is genetically at-risk.
I wouldn't give a shit. And yeah, the mom definitely has more of a right to it, it doesn't matter if he's "half you". Do you have to spend nine months incapacitated and restricted just to bring it into existence?

What if I don't want you to have my kid, huh?

And you know it.
wow
With my consent-based morality, even having a child is evil, because he's not consenting to existence. But at the same time, it's a necessary evil, because our race needs new kids to keep existing. Because of confusions like these, I tend to prioritize the consent of living adults over hypothetical, unborn children.

Thank you.Without even going into anti-natalism--why is it permissible for you to impose horrible debilitating shit on children?
Because having sex doesn't necessitate childbirth,
and tangible things are more important than possible things.
Then I'd agree with you. I was talking about sex.

I dont even think forest is the real father tbh
it depends on how intellectually impaired the guy was; they never really say.
Quote from: Winy on October 05, 2015, 09:25:40 PM it depends on how intellectually impaired the guy was; they never really say.When he was tested for acceptance to public school the doctor said he had an IQ of 79, which is not classified as mentally handcapped. He is very dumwitted, but he isn't retarded.

I've heard people have been shitting on Forrest GumpWhy the fuck? Forrest Grump was an awesome movie
>DSM-5 Standards>A Level 1 (at worst) by ICD standardsHe's not retarded.

I think it was 75.How reliable were IQ tests in the '50s anyway?
About as reliable as they are now, generally. And slight retardation would be an IQ of 69. IQ also changes over the course of your life because of developmental factors, so there's a good chance that his IQ is higher by some amount during his adulthood.

Yet neither of them have the right to create it in the first place.This isn't even anti-natalism--this is common sense. You don't have a kid with someone who is genetically at-risk.
Since When Did People Start Hating On Forrest Grump?
