Everything you are saying here can be flipped and used as an arguement against a woman's right to choose.

And it's also fairly presumputous to say that the after shocks of an abortion will stay with a woman for years(presumablely you are speaking of mental anquish) but not assume that a man wouldn't be bothered one bit to having signed away his rights to ever even see or be involved with his potentially only progeny just because he was young and stupid.
