Understood, but "knowing the consequences" equally applies to the female in the picture - and is not factored in - in either case - in this sort of case.
For example -"Your honor she told me she was on birth control" doesn't carry much weight in a child support hearing. No more so than "She knew that having sex could lead to pregnancy" carries any weight when trying to bar a woman from having an abortion.
Unless we're referencing very-very specific circumstances whether or not the male had any clue that a child was going to be born is irrelevant - and whether or not the female realized that a child was going to be conceived is irrelevant. It's not an issue of consequences, known or otherwise.
