I imagine the worst-case situation, where a woman is raped. The biological father...a rapist...has a choice whether or not he wants her to have a baby. She wants to abort, but he wants a child. So she's forced to carry the child of a rapist to term, and then turn the kid over to him? Yikes.

Equally bad in cases of incest. Or how about a man who is abusive to his girlfriend/wife but still wants kids? Shouldn't that be the woman's choice to bring the child into the world (or not)?

I think most mature women -- under normal circumstances -- will talk it over with the man. While any guy I'd have sex with could have an opinion, in the end I feel it should be my decision whether to have the child or not.
