Samsare Do women think guys are sexually free? That would be...most untrue. Well... I see what you're saying. It depends on the guy, but emotionally, you're right, he isn't neccessarily free. If he cares about his girlfriend/wife, he's involved. He's expected (and wants) to help her finanically support a baby, help raise the baby. And if she has an abortion, he suffers emotionally and can't even do anything about it. And if he gets a girl pregnant, it's often blamed on him (at least around here), as if it's all his fault.
Physically, however, males are free. They don't carry pregnancies, or give birth, they don't feel pain just for owning their reproductive organs (unless you kick them or something,) they don't have to take BC pills, and since they can't get pregnant, even the pro-choice ones don't have to go through abortion pains, either. If you're a guy who sleeps around with no strings attached, and you're a girl who does the same, there's a difference in the type of risk you're taking.

In a sense, I think males are more free than females because of pregnancy.
I'm not trying to make this a, "Oh we were pwned by biology poor us," thing, it's just a simple fact that pregnancy is a risk when you're a typical woman having sex between a certain age range.
Think about it. If you have sex, you are taking less risks regarding your body than a woman is. You're both at equal risk for STDs, you're both at equal risk for emotional trouble from it, but which one of you is at risk for pregnancy? Not you. And if you don't know this woman and she never sees you again, you don't ever have to deal with that. There is no way for a woman to escape it. Abortion can end it, but that doesn't change that it happened and that she needed to resort to a deadly medical procedure in order to end it.
So yes. Women will never, not even with abortion, have the same level of sexual freedom that men do. It's not anyone's fault, and they certainly have the freedom to do what they please, but they don't have the same freedom from consequences.
And yeah, I get that men have responsibilities. I understand that there is child support, and I understand that if your child dies and you regard that baby as a child you are going to suffer and there's not a thing you can do to save your baby. I would certainly not want to be male for that reason. I know that if it gets out that you got someone pregnant, you'll face a ton of scrutiny from the people you know. But it's still something that if a man wanted to just get out of dodge after having sex, he physically can. A woman who gets pregnant cannot.
Edit: Lorysa wins again xd I started typing this up, left to do things, and she'd replied by the time I got back and finished up but I didn't realize it.

There's also the point that women are not guarenteed climax during sex.
...and I originally typed "considered climax."

One of those days... one of those days...

... That physical risk is slightly minor compared to the others. xD
Equally, a man isn't guaranteed that either; a women could scream "STOP!" just before he finishes, and that instant, he is transformed into a rapist.

This is what happened: Feminism was supposed to be about helping women see they could have it all: A family, a career, you name it. The original feminists were pro-life because they saw abortion hurts women. Then came the 70's when the feminist movement got hijacked and it encouraged women to dally (leave that to the imagination) with whoever they wanted and be able to get rid of the "problem". These days, it's very pro-choice and anti-motherhood. Their idea of "empowerment" and "sexual freedom" is an unmarried woman who dallies with a lot of dudes, regardless of if she knows his name or not, and kills an innocent baby to cover the deed. And that is how feminism got hijacked. "Sexual freedom" is have sex with whoever you want and force an unborn innocent to pay the price.
