content: But what do you think should happen in a situation where a couple gets pregnant, the woman wants to abort and the man wants the baby? Should he have the right to force her to go through with the pregnancy and give birth?  By my own principles, if it's early on, then she can abort, she doesn't need anyone's permission unless she previously agreed not to. If it's late term, like 3-4 months in, then sorry, too late. But the same would be true even if he wanted her to abort. Neither case has anything to do with the father's wishes. The point isn't that women have the right to control their bodies, (which is an unequal physical situation) they have the right to force men to abide by, and fund their choices, which is an unequal legal situation.
