I think this is an issue of equality.  A woman can choose to have an abortion or carry the fetus to term.  A man, however, cannot get an abortion and is forced to support the child.

I think there should be the legal equivalent of an abortion for men.  They should be able to legally disclaim the child and not have any responsibility for it.  This would also entail that the man must be informed of the pregnancy so as to make his decision, and if he chooses to disclaim the child it must be made permanent so that he can make absolutely no future claims on/to the child.
