Interesting topic.
As far as the original topic question goes, I don't think there are too many affluent men who are fathers nowadays because there are not too many FATHERS in America in the past 25-30 years. LOADS of baby daddies. But not too many actual fathers. For me, if you never tuck your kid in, read him/her a story, know their favorite cartoon or toy or whatever, you're probably a baby daddy. I'm proud to be an father. My son is watching his favorite cartoon, Pj masks while holding an PJ masks umbrella I bought him earlier today as I type this. And I just gave him an snack. THAT'S a dad. I totally understand those who just can not work things out where their child's mother enough to be actively involved in their kid's life every day....but at the same time, if you go more than a week without seeing them, the problem isn't just the mother: it's you. Being a father takes effort and the desire to be one. When my son is older, I will teach him not to have a kid until he's 100 percent sure he's going to be there for them.
As for the pulling out discussion....I do it. I've been married for 7 years now and my wife and I never use protection, just pulling out. We dated about a year and a half before marriage and only slept together a couple of times before marriage(she's Filipino and while she allowed me to take her virginity, she only did so pre-marriage because we were already engaged and she knew I was the one). When we first got married, we were going at it multiple times a week. Since our son was born(he's 4 now), it's closer to once or twice a month(to my chagrin) but even then...we just pull out. I see all the statistics but frankly, I'm not worried. As soon as I feel...umm...the urge, I know if I don't pull out, she's gonna freak out and I don't need that aggravation. Besides, after the first nut, you can always go back in and pump so more.
Now if you're single, I'd say, by all means, wrap it up. In my single days, I pretty much always used a condom. Never liked them but I feel they're a necessary evil when you're not hitched.
Hope I wasn't too graphic or vulgar for you guys.
