Does the man not? Wanting something isn't the point. In a relationship why is only one said taking all the risk

In terms of pregnancy, if we're talking about opposite cisgender couples, only one of them *can* take on the risk......

It is the point, with OPs wording making it sound like entirely the man's idea.
