2. (He doesn't want it/ she does): he has had his constitutional right to procreate/not procreate (See Baird and Yoder Supreme Court cases) cut off, and must pay child support for 18-25 years, no matter his choice whatsoever.

That's a very good point Timber. It's considered very bad taste for a man not to want the child if the woman does, but when it's the other way around, he has no say in the matter either. It must be heartwrenching when the guy really wants to have the baby and the woman has it taken away.
I agree we should pay more attention to their point of view.
