Double congratulations for being the lucky one that I respond to.
-- because the mere fact that the woman is pregnant can be rightfully assumed to be because of the husband -- and if it's not, he, as a matter of public policy has the right to know for his health amongst other moral reasons which might elude you.
And of course, we're talking about pregnancy in a marriage, not STD's. STD's were a side issue that reinforced the primary argument. Let's not shift the scope too much or this could go on forever.

No need to be snarky.
It's a double-standard. Under your proposed policy, since men are physically unable to become pregnant, women are the only ones who would ever have to 'fess up to infidelity. You can't extend rights to one group of citizens and not another. You can't give men the right to find out their wives have been unfaithful and not extend that same right to women.
Would you support a policy policy that requires men who cheat on their pregnant wives to disclose that information to their wives? Not only are these men endangering the health of their wife, but they're also endangering the health of the unborn child.
