That's pretty easy to do with 99%+ success rate.

  Condoms effectivement is 98%: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/contraception/male-condoms/ https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/contraception/male-condoms/ If you have sex twice a week (which for a young couple is very conservative), after a year, you've reach 100 attempts already. You then better hope the two patners agree on wether or not keeping the baby.

    It's 98% for the condom itself, but if you couple it with the fact that the 2% failure rate has to correspond with an ejaculation in an ovulating female's vagina, the actual effectiveness is much higher.

      That's not accurate (if it were, we wouldn't have efficacy rates for coitus interruptus and the rhythm method that this can be directly compared to, which we do); but the rate is per year, not per act. From the link: >When used correctly every time you have sex, male condoms are 98% effective. This means 2 out of 100 people will become pregnant in 1 year when male condoms are used as contraception. On the other hand, over 20 years, that translates to an efficacy rate of only 67%.

        And that's "if used correctly". Now add passion, alcohol, nails, wrong lubricants, and ignorance for a much worse rate.

  For the remaining %, men should be able to choose abortion or not being the father, as women can choose too. In the XXIth century, 100% births are voluntary.

    > as women can choose too. In the XXIth century, 100% births are voluntary. I'm not sure where you live, but those choices are not available everywhere. In the USA, they are actively being taken away. So regardless of what choices should be available, your stance is woefully out of touch with reality.
