  I have no idea, but the world is a very strange place and I'm sre it has 
happened.

  Yes of course it is BOTH persons resposibility, but approach the problem
realistically. Which party is going to be affected/inconvenience the most
from a pregnancy ? Would this party not naturally be more concerned about
the possible consequences of their actions ?

  In no way do I lesson the responsibilities of the sperm-donor, yet the
woman will bear the greater burden [ at least for a while ] so it is of course
in her best interest to be vigilant in regards to her health and not leave it
in control of another.
