No. Maybe they shouldn't get any say at all actually.

     Yes, most definitely. At the same time, men should not be compelled to support the child if the woman does not abort.

I've been arguing that the fact that women can opt-out of the child care by having an abortion while men don't have the same option available is wrong for some time. Glad to see someone shares my opinion. I think the cumpolsory abortion on the request of the father would be too harsh, though.

     Not only that, but allowing the father to force the mother into having an abortion would contradict the principle libertarian argument in favor of abortion rights. After all, if the mother has the right to remove the fetus at will because she owns her own body, wouldn't giving someone else say over whether she keeps or removes it be a critical infringement on her jurisdiction over her own body?


Doesn't sound libertarian to meeeeeee.
