A woman who's worried about getting pregnant can monitor her period and take an abortion pill if it's late. A man, on the other hand, can do nothing to avoid the cost of a child besides trying to persuade her. There are women who try to get pregnant against their partner's wishes.

Nothing?

Vasectomy is more than 99% effective at preventing pregnancy.

It has also a chance for chronic pain as a result, though.
I mean nothing after she gets pregnant.
My point is the woman can shut the door and the horse magically teleports back into the stable but the man can't. So men can benefit from being in control of their own fertility.
