Here, you say that the law doesn't force the woman to get permission. When you are reminded that it, in fact, does, you say:

Fresh, back down when you are wrong... I do it all the time.

Now might be a good time for you to do so.

But let's take your proposed alternate law into consideration:

I stated that a man who wishes to stop a abortion should be able to.

If you don't agree with the "woman needs permission" part of the law, how do you propose that this should work? How would he know? If the woman tells him that she is pregnant, she risks losing her ability to make the choice herself. It would be much safer for her to make the decision without his input, which I think most would agree would be a bad outcome.

And if the man decides that she can't have an abortion, how would the doctor know?
