I actually think that if we could not force men to take care of there child then women would be more selective in who they mate with. Will they choose dude x who has no job or dude y who is financially stable and morally responsible.
The only thing that approach would accomplish is to increase the welfare rolls...and society at large becomes financially responsible instead of the father.
There are plenty of people who are single parents who are not in welfare.
Your scenario creates unequal obligation. With a mother responsible for every child she bears while a man is never responsible for any child he fathers.
That's not equality.
Or your scenario creates unequal rights. Where a man has control of his own body. But a woman doesn't have control over hers.
That's not equality.
And of course, the obligation is to the child. If the child exists, the obligation exists. And that obligation is always equal.
There's your equality.
