Empathy does not make you less of man. Caring does not make you less of man. What you choose to do is not what I agree with. Life is precious&since you contributed 1 little sperm, you can do your best for your wife if you love her, because birth is still a stressful time no matter what. I detect a "I don't give a **** attitude" because its not you going through the pain, you are alright jack.

Are you going to be the bar with the guys throughout the babies life? Are you gay? You prefer male company than your own child.
