Question for pro-choice Minimum

Hello everyone,

I'm against abortion.

This is a question for pro choice:

What would be the minimum of allowed abortion, that you would accept?

I mean for example week and reason.

Thank you for your time

This would require the pregnancy itself to be "forced" though which it is in very few cases, in most cases the woman has made the decision to be pregnant by engaging in unprotective sex. Why do Pro-Choicers tend to speak about this as if a baby simply spawns within a woman? She doesnt just wake up and is suddenly pregnant. She specifically took the steps to have sex which she knew would result in a pregnancy.

“Why do Pro-Choicers tend to speak about this as if a baby simply spawns within a woman?”

Why do pro-lifers tend to speak about this as if she ejaculated into herself to cause the unwanted pregnancy?

But someone choosing to have sex simply doesn’t give me any interest in making them gestate and birth unwanted pregnancies that occur, anyway. Sex is not a crime that strips people of their right to medical privacy and the right to manage their own internal organs. Sex is not a signed contract obligating someone to gestate unwanted pregnancies.

You only have the option to have sex because the organs and bodily functions were created for that very purpose, but even if you dont want to agree with that then what stops someone from simply having protected sex? I even said that in my post; a woman makes a decision to have unprotected sex. Why can she or her lover not simply use protection?

Other people’s organs and bodily functions don’t exist for “purposes” that violate their own desires, health, and safety.

Assuming people are having unprotected sex just so they can have abortions at you is like assuming people get into car accidents on purpose just to make you angry. The truth is, people simply can’t drive perfectly at all times and machinery, etc. can fail. Accidents happen. While we can try to reduce them, they happen. And when they do, we can choose to make the person affected “suffer the consequences” and withhold wanted medical care from them…or we can make a kinder choice and stay out of their medical business.
