“My Body, My Choice” and Other Pro-Abortion Myths

I guess you're right when it comes to yourself and others who live your sexual lifestyle.  But any man who has ever had the joy of starting a life, or raising the child after it's born, absolutely has not only the right to an opinion, but to shout it from the rooftops.  You are the one who arguably doesn't have that right, since you've never participated in the process or known the joy of the result.

I think loving a woman is not relevant to this point. It's the notion that a man who is emotionally connected to a life he's started has no right to opine on a woman's unilateral decision about ending that life. I discount the opinions of gay men on this subject, just as I think they should discount my opinions on the joys of gay anal sex.

For the record, that notion was one you created yourself...I want any man who contributed to creating that life to have a say in whether or not the woman gets an abortion...just that the final decision be hers, and that the government isn't at all involved.

Note that doesn't include any of you with any abortion cases outside your immediate family. You or I should have no say if Jane Doe wants an abortion and our opinions shouldn't matter much.

Dave, with respect, more and more every day you seem concerned only with your opinions and those that agree with you and you write off everyone else.  Do you need to get laid more?

You have conflated several issues here, in my opinion, erroneously:
1.  No one has said Snowflake doesn't have a right.  What MDDad said, and with which I agree, is, he discounts an opinion from a man who will never face that decision, personally.
2.  The issue for liberals is freedom of choice.  That puts them in opposition to conservatives whom generally see it as an issue of life.  The two sides will never see eye to eye because each believes (or at least states even if they don't believe) the priority of their perspective.  I have come to believe "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are listed in order of importance, but of course that best suits my perspective.
3.  If you're talking legally, there is not a well-defined point past which a woman no longer has a choice.  If you're talking morally, that point is conception.
4.  Are you asking about "the consequence of the choice" to have unprotected sex?  BOTH partners should bear those consequence (although, admittedly, we as a society are still lopsided in that equation).  But you're probably talking about the consequence of the choice to have an abortion; and unfortunately, other than the man might be forced to pay for it, physiologically and emotionally, only the woman bears that consequence... which is something about which most pro-abortionists won't discuss.

Insofar as whether or not the man should "impose his will" on the woman, no, of course not.  However, at minimum, the man should be involved in the decision AND the court should appoint a Guardian ad Litum to represent the rights and liberties (if not the life) of the unborn child.

I disagree with your premise, but to paraphrase Bill Clinton, I guess it depends on what your definition of a man is.  When a man impregnates a woman, I think he assumes the responsibility of loving, raising and financially supporting that child until it becomes an adult.  (I can't call it a "burden" when it's one of the greatest joys in life.)  If he doesn't, he's significantly less than a man, and to call him a selfish child is being too kind.  I don't think he should ever be allowed to impose his will on the woman, but neither should she be allowed to unilaterally impose her will on him.  And in this entire wrenching scenario, who represents the child?  Does it not also deserve a voice?

A child is a living human being from conception.  Human rights mandates their needs/rights be considered from that point. The Declaration of Independence mandates from that point, they have a right to life, liberty, and a pursuit of happiness.  The U.S. Constitution establishes they will not be deprived of [their rights] without due process of law.
