So is this really a good "public policy" if it could put certain vulnerable members of the public at an increased risk of harm?
Don't confuse two separate issues.

If you want to deal with spousal abuse, deal with it.

If you want to deal with males knowing when their females got an abortion, deal with it.

And if you really want to delve into the subject of public policy, there is quite a bit of discussion on how to separate such problems instead of bundling them together.
