I'm not sure where your second point came from, certainly not from anything I posted, but the fact that there is regulation doesn't mean that states can regulate in any manner they feel like.

Women can get pregnant; Men can't. That isn't government discrimination. It is nature. Moreover many if not most women wouldn't consider abortion insurance to be desireable. Many women oppose abortion; Others would welcome a child into this world; Some aren't sexually active.
Rape is really a red herring here. There is the morning after pill. There is agencies who provide abortions for lower income women. There is also the possibility of the women paying for the procedure out of pocket. I seriously doubt that a women would consider purchasing abortion insurance if her only concern was rape. There are cheaper options.
