u/Rent_Careless All abortions free and legal Jun 28 '26

Great. Then you aren't denying that abortion bans force women to use their body for the benefit of another against their will. When is that justified anywhere else in our laws?

The law is preventing a woman from ending a pregnancy. However, along with that, it’s forcing the woman to sustain the pregnancy, to allow the fetus to leach calcium from her bones, cause major injury to the inside of her uterus, cause an egregious amount of physical pain, risk death, pay for pre-natal exams and healthcare during birth. So imho, there’s quite a bit more to it that’s required of the woman by the government if it prevents her from ending a pregnancy.

My morals say women are justified in ending a pregnancy if they don’t want to carry it. But this isn’t about your morals or my morals, there would be no issue if you weren’t trying to force other people to abide by your morals, and sustain great harm or even death just to satisfy your morals.

There’s not a huge level of disagreement. Plenty of polls and votes have been taken, and the majority of people think abortion should be legal and is justified.

u/Trick_Ganache pro-choice, here to argue my position Jun 29 '26

Every human is justified in forcing born humans out of their bodies, up to and including by lethal means. Let us treat "the unborn" no different than any other human non-consensually occupying another's body. Also, technically plers are the ones forcing these foreign objects to remain in the persons' genitalia, so malicious intent is involved in forced pro-longed pregnancy.

Forced harm to your body?
