If women are to be punished by being forced to have a baby and give it up to strangers, what do you want your state to do to punish the man who is 50% responsible for the unwanted pregnancy?
If you don't punish each sex equally, that is equivalent to saying one sex has more citizenship rights than the other.
That's the core argument in RvW, that women have the same sovereignity as men.

How do you punish the man? The only way you can do it is financially if he does not wish to voluntarily help raise the child. Im not really sure why you keep harping on this. What do you have in mind stuffing a melon in his colon. If woman have the same sovereignity, then men should have an equal say in the killing of their child. You are aware that the father has NO say in it right? How would that make you feel if you couldnt stop your child from slaughter?
