Except that a vasectomy is much more expensive than an early term abortion and it does more damage to the reproductive system than an abortion does. In addition, most women who are trying to get pregnant or who do not use birth control, have miscarriages without even knowing it. Often the woman thinks she is having a "heavy" period when it is actually a still birth. Around 50% of pregnancies are naturally miscarried. Therefore, an early term abortion (the (equivalent to an early term miscarriage) is much less painful, a far less risky and a much less expensive procedure and is far less potentially damaging to the reproductive system than a vasectomy is. Clearly, in trying to keep things fair, a vasectomy and an abortion are not at all comparable.
So what? It's not my problem
