On the matter of equal reproductive rights for men, the assumption is always that the woman's right to abort her pregnancy is equivalent to the man's right to "financially abort" his fatherhood, meaning, refusing the legal obligations of fatherhood. And that is already a highly controversial topic for the poor little damsels. This post made me think a little further...

A man and a woman conceive a child. When the woman decides to have an abortion, the impact of her decision is: this child shall not be born. Our child shall not live. This is a life or death decision. It is irreversible and she gets to take it unilaterally with no recourse. Again, read slowly: a woman's right to abortion is her right to say "Our child shall not live."

And now consider the "outrageous concept" of financial abortion for men. What a swindle... Women have always had the power over life and death in the species. The question we should actually ask them is this: Are you prepared to lose grip of your power (in the form of identical reproductive rights for men) in the same way men have opened their sphere to your whims and wishes?
