51. Nope - not right at all.
Frankly, what almost amuses me is the fact that many of those here who argue most vehemently against denying the choice of whether to become a parent to the prospective mother, have absolutely no problem with telling the prospective father that he has *no* choice. A woman has the right to choose to terminate a pregnancy for any reason, yet the attitude towards the prospective father seems to be, "if you don't want to be a dad, don't screw around." I think that's vile.

If two adults engage in consensual sex which produces a child, they're both responsible for its wellbeing, correct?

A woman has the legal right to choose to terminate a pregnancy for any reason she deems valid, not just health-related reasons, right?
