I do think the thread title is a bit misleading, as, according to the article, only the wife's husband is allowed to sue her. Unless the husband is the rapist, the rapist won't be the one suing.

With that said, I agree, the law is a terrible idea across the board, even if you are pro life. The potential to threaten a rape victim with a lawsuit is not the way to support your position. The admittedly small silver lining is that this will likely very rarely happen, if ever.

At no point is the woman ever sued. The one getting sued by this law is only the doctor. And thats only if he does the surgery without the knowladge of the father. 

You're entirely right, I should have read the article more clearly. Well, in that case, the thread title is even more misleading than I initially claimed.
