Correct, but the law provides women a course of action to escape all the legal responsibilities of motherhood. There is no law that provides such a course of action for a man.
I understand that no matter what, there are going to be consequences for a woman once she gets pregnant. I also understand that providing this option for men relieves them of any consequences of pregnancy. But this would be an inequality based on biology, not the law. And the law states there cannot be an inequality between genders because of the law.
