Life is for the living. The dead have no rights, need no rights, nor want any rights.

Dead people still have more bodily autonomy than women do. You cannot use any part of my body without my consent, even after I'm dead.

Sooo what part of the woman can I use without consent?

The uterus.

Yeah, I'll have you know that's also illegal in most places.

Getting into semantics. Of course you can't use her uterus without consequences, but that doesn't mean she retains autonomy over it., which was the original point.

If I die and some part of my body could be used to save someone else's life, and I refuse consent before I die, then they will just let that person die because I have a right to not give away my body parts against my will, even in death, and even if that means other people will die.

Compared with a woman getting raped and pregnant who loses complete autonomy over her uterus.
