True. But if there is an abortion, there is no child. The woman is the sole decision maker as to whether or not to give birth or abort. Therefore, she is the one who is directly responsible for the child being there. After all, prior to abortion, it's just an unviable tissue mass, right? So getting rid of it is no big deal.

As a reminder, my arguments are solely rhetorical. I do not regard the unborn fetus as an unviable tissue mass, nor do I think that the contributin male should have no responsibility.
