Tell me which of these seems equatible:
A woman can choose to terminate the pregnancy, but the man cannot
A woman can abort to avoid financial reponsibility and inconvenience. A man cannot.
A woman can make the decision to keep the baby, the man cannot
The woman can choose to give the baby up for adoption without the father's consent.
I could go on.
There are a lot of reasons why a women may want an abortion, but that doesn't change the underlying philosophical reasoning for why she can have the abortion: it's her body and only she has a say over her body.
Until a man can get pregnant and it is his body, it will always be this way.
