Simple: the man has the right to his own body. Period. Poeple are entitled to change their mind. If the woman agreed to go to a picnic with the man, and then changed her mind, does he have the right to force her to go to the picnic, just because she's already in the car, and he REALLY wants her to go? Of course not. So why is this so different? Just because she has agreed to share her body with him up to a certain point, why does it mean that she has given up her control of it? It's still HER body isn't it ? Or has her body simply been reduced to an object for his use and pleasure?
