Could you give me an example? I'm just not grasping what you are saying.
The text of the Equal Rights Amendment
"Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."
Based on this, if abortion is a right, how do you deny the right of a man to abort a fetus that is partly his without violating his right to equality of rights based on sex? You may have a "possesion" way out of it, but I guarantee a court case would be filed almost immediately.
Furthermore things like child support and custody would no longer favor the woman, because in doing so you would be denying equality of rights.
If you're right about the first part, I'd wager that the court(s) would quickly set the precedent that a man cannot legally force a woman into an abortion.
As for the second part, good, child support and custody matters should give equal consideration to both parents.
It's amazing to me that if a Woman "Chooses" NOT to Kill her Inconvenient Child that she can then Force a Man to Pay for it...
Yet he has NO Say in his own Child's Life be Terminated.
That's not Equality.
peace...
