Well, a woman can terminate the financial responsibily to her self at any time, with out the permission of the other party. Even if the man wants to keep the child, the woman can abort. It is a one sided protection. The woman has the right to choose, the man does not. There is no legal recourse for a man to keep a woman pregnant. She has the right to choose.
It should be a two way street. Men should have some right to choose. It takes two to tango. And as of right now, the situation favours the woman.
Also, women can lie about being on the pill... And women DO. Women do entrap men and then expect them to pay out. The whole "I own my baby's daddy" mindset where poor women bootstrap themselves out of poverty by raking in the child support. Condoms bust. Women even get pregnant while on the pill. And women have the options to protect themselves... Abortion. Men have no such option.
The more I think of this, the more fair I think it is. Allowing for situation, there should be means for the man to opt out. If a man refuses to pay, then a woman can go and use her hard won right to choose or offer the kid up for adoption.
It is a case of double standard, plain and simple. Hate to say it, but a lot of women expect certain rights completely unavailable to men. And in the case of consentual sex, if a woman has the right to opt out of the consequences, it is only right and fair that a man have the same options. If the man can't have it, take away the woman's ability to opt out as well.

All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
