He always has the opportunity to wear a condom and NOT gift his sperm with the caveat that condoms are not 100% effective. He also has the right to not have intercourse at all. He has the right to only have intercourse with a partner that he is certain is properly using the most effective birth control possible.
If biology was fair, there would be male birth control that is just as easy and reliable as female birth control. If biology was fair, our primal impulses would always take 2nd place to our common sense. If biology was fair, a male/female couple would have a 50/50 shot of either one of them getting pregnant in any encounter.
Biology is not fair. But you can choose to not gift your sperm but most men would rather have sex and worry about what happens to his sperm later. Whining about it after the fact is lame. Be careful who you gift your sperm to or accept the consequences.

I 2nd this post.
How many of you have the guts to look a 10 yr old in the face and say " I didnt want you in the first place, so I shouldnt have to pay for you.......yes I did pay for your half brothers and sisters, but I wanted them so thats different..... Well I told your mum to abort you, so why should I pay for you" Could you do it to a 5 yr old, or an 18 yr old?
If you have ever seen a 3 - 13 yr old go through a period, of "Wheres my Daddy, or how come everbody has a Dad but me, or I guess my Daddy doesnt love me" you will know paying a bit of money, is not as much of an inconvenience as the child or the mother faces raising the mans child on her own. In many cases the same guy who doesnt want to pay for the unwanted kid, go's on to pay for the kids with the woman he is with.
