Blathering on about viability and brain function is completely irrelevant to the topic of abortion.The only salient point is this: The right to bodily autonomy is absolute. If a real living adult person will die unless he gets your kidney, you cannot be compelled to donate. If a real living adult person will die unless she gets your bone marrow, you cannot be compelled to provide it. If a real person has no right to consume your body for his own benefit, even if his life depends on it, then why should a fetus? This was pointed out in 1971, so it's clear by now that the only reason anybody opposes abortion is because they're sexists who simply don't accept that women have a right to bodily autonomy. |
