The Male Abortion: The Putative Father 's Right to Terminate His Interests In and Obligations to the Unborn Child

"When an unmarried male and an unmarried female have sexual

relations resulting in pregnancy, the female has several options. She

may choose to carry the child to term and retain custody of the

child. She may carry the child to term and terminate her rights in

the child so that the child may be adopted. Finally, she may

terminate the pregnancy through an abortion. "

This is incomplete, the woman also has the financial abortion in the form of safe heaven/surrender laws : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe-haven_law

It allows women to avoid all responsibilities by surrendering their infants at a hospital, church or fire-station.

And it is completely anonymous, allowing to woman to hide the pregnancy from anyone who would claim fathers rights and have a feminist pay child support, in fact it is so anonymous that in some places, the state install baby drop off boxes :

"In some places, a baby hatch or "baby box" is provided to allow babies to be safely dropped off anonymously and without encountering other people."

Financial abortion will sadly never going to happen. The reason why men have zero reproductive rights and why a man can so easily be charged with child alimony even when they only dated/cohabitated with mother and child for a couple months is because the countries are desperate to get rid of their “extra” weight, ie. the mother and the children who would need money from the state if a man didnt paid for them. An abortion gets rid of the problem entirely, a man opting out of a kid’s life means the state will have to step in for the mother and children.

This is why multiple countries like France made it illegal for fathers to do DNA tests on their own children, that is because a couple years ago men started doing DNA tests and realizing their children were not even theirs and divorcing their unfaithful wives and kicking both the child and the mother out, which mostly resulted in more costs for France. By banning DNA tests they made sure men would never realize if their kids are theirs or not.

The foundation for a womans right to abortion lies in her withdrawing her consent to remaining pregnant with a human that is not yet a person with a unique first person conscious experience.

There just isn't anything like this replicable for men.

When a woman has an abortion as described above, there is no present or future person that is harmed.

But if a man were to do what's described above, the future person who will come into existence (and the mother) is necessarily harmed.

That's the difference.

The right to abortion isn't grounded in "i don't want to be a parent/I don't want to pay for a kid", it's grounded in bodily autonomy and personhood.

So these supposedly symmetrical rights proposals are not symmetrical at all.
