Oklahoma lawmakers want men to approve all abortions

[Ebowed]

Imagine if this law required pregnant women who didn't want an abortion to "consult" the father who disagrees.

Let's face it - this isn't about giving men equal consideration in the parenting equation.  If it were, Oklahoma would be requiring workplaces to offer paid paternity leave and remedy the disparity between hours worked among men and women so that fathers were able to spend more time actually parenting their children.

But this isn't really about that.  Oklahoma doesn't even have paid maternity leave.
