"Seems to me that if a man and woman have sex but agree they don't want children, and they take measures, but the measures fail, and she gets pregnant, she has all the right to decide whether or not the child is born, he has none, and if she decides it is to be born he has no option but to pay about, in this state for average parents, at least $150,000 over the next 18 years for child she said she didn't want and he clearly didn't want, but she has all the decision power and he has none."

What if the woman is a prostitute?

"IMO there is something more than vaguely wrong with this picture."

Oh yeah, here it is "...have sex but..."

I know everybody would prefer to find a way out of responsibility for their carnality but its never going to work out. There is no right side in this scenario.
