Parenthood for Men

For this discussion, I am not including crimes but only talking about consensual sex between a man and woman.    Men don't have any reproductive rights and rely completely on the choice of the woman.       

A woman has her choice of about 50 different forms of birth control in various forms including pills and IUD. These are all medical procedures and her partners can't observe her using them or that she is doing so correctly. In fact, he has no right to even ask about it but can only trust that she is telling the truth. If those methods fail, then she may obtain a morning after pill or get an abortion. Even after she carries a baby to term, she can still give the baby up for adoption or drop it off at a safe haven. All of this is the woman's choice and she doesn't have to consult the father nor does he have any rights to the child. Most states don't even grant the father access in the case of safe haven or adoption.

The man has one choice of birth control. A condom. The woman can observe him using it and if he is using it correctly. She could even sabotage it and he would never know.

With all that, if the woman chooses to keep the baby then the man is legally liable for child support even if he never wanted the child, paternity fraud, theft, or rape.

Some would give the standard mantra of "Woman's body, woman's choice"    That's fine too!     Man's wallet, Man's choice.      If a man doesn't want to be a parent then the woman can still chose to have the child but she would have to be willing to do it without someone else footing the bill!       

Some have replied that it only means should not sleep around.      If that is the case then the same should apply to women and then abortion nor birth control would never be an issue!
