      Well yes, because biology isn't fair and men and women are different. If she was going to keep it against the father's will anyway, I don't

      Well, I can't explain it any more clearly than that.Women can't make someone else bring their fetus to term &care for child by signing paper

      I don't see how the fact that women don't have magical sci-fi options means men should get zero reproductive rights. It's a non-sequitur.

      I don't see how giving men the right to have their fetus brought to term & baby provided for is fair when women can't have that right.

      I don't know what the solution is. Either way it isn't fair. But you can't compare situations where fetus lives with one where it dies.

      If the mother's only reason for bringing the pregnancy to term is the expectation of alimony payments from an unwilling father, it's...

      .. probably best for all parties involved if that pregnancy is terminated.

      It isn't only women who can't bring themselves to abort. Men often can't make that decision either.

      With signing away his rights, he doesn't have to make that choice. His baby will live but he won't have to pay for it or care for it.

      It just isn't comparable & it isn't fair that he can walk away safe in the knowledge his baby will live but be someone else's responsibility

          If the woman is in the same position and is not prepared to abort but cannot do that. When it gets to adoption, it evens up a bit.

          I don't think a father who would be willing to give up their paternal rights would be 2 concerned about their offspring one way or the other

          Well, you'd be wrong. Many people who don't want to be parents still don't want to abort. That's why adoption exists.
