Exactly. This is a great idea, but I think it should be worded a *little* differently. Semen isn't 'intellectual property', is it? It is certainly not human life though, and thus qualifies as 'property' for sure. The man transfers possession and property ownership of the semen to the woman through the act of sex.
*IF* the couple decides that they want to raise a family, and the woman wants the man accountable, then all she needs to do is have him sign a form saying that the actions to -have a baby- have been taken, and the couple assumes mutual responsibility for the coming child.
The child will then be the responsibility of both people involved. From here, if the man decides to back out and not help raise the child, the woman will have a legally binding contract that had been agreed to beforehand by the man, and will legally bind him to pay child support.
I like this idea. Here, we have found a libertarian solution to the situation.
