Abstract
In “Abortion and Fathers’ Rights,”1 Steven Hales argues that there is a prima facie inconsistency in asserting that: 1. Women have a moral right to abortion on demand, at their discretion, i.e., a right that cannot be vetoed by the father or any other person; 2. Men and women have equal moral rights and duties and should have equal legal rights and duties; and 3. Parents have a moral duty to provide support for their children once they are born, and legal duties of support should supervene on this moral duty.
