I disagree. I think women are just as responsible for birth control as men are. I can certainly understand the circumstances in which birth control fails, and a woman is not ready to care for a child, that she should have the right to end that pregnancy. But I'm sorry -- irresponsibility on the woman's part is no excuse, IMVHO.
