Yes, allowing a man to have a say in what happens to another woman's body is a great sign of equality and progress.

Not her body, the baby. Keep in mind that this procedure is for a fetus in the second trimester. Its already consider a baby just getting nutrients from the mother. where you to tel me that the mother is in danger due to the pregnancy, then yea, its her decicion completly. But since that is very rare now days with the advancements in tech we have, then both parents get a say.

The fetus cannot live without the mother. If the fetus becomes detached, and cannot survive, it's part an extension of the woman, and she should have the final say to what happens to her body. Also, it's not like the women are deciding to abort their children like they decide what to eat for breakfast: there is an extreme emotional response to their choices, and it's not like it's easy for them to decide.
