To: Age of Reason
Without a marriage license, the man should have no say over and no obligation to any child that reasults.

If women have the "right to choose", men should also. Upon formal notification that he's about to become a father, an unmarried man should be able to make a decision as to whether he will support the child, having at least a few weeks to think about it. The woman can make her own decision from there. (Marriage would be considered an explicit "yes" decision)

And no man would be forced to pay support for a child not biologically his, except if he formally accepts the child in full knowledge he's not the biological father

All good points, but there is no incentive for women to support them, as we males are guaranteed cash cows for them with the current status quo. And that is AFTER they take a look at your paycheck!

Just keep it simple: Either Married or not married.

End of story.
