    We’ll that’s an argument I guess however consent is not the end all be all of free will. You can not give a fetus personhood and be pro choice because at that point you accept that abortion is murder, taking the life of another human. Your right to choose does not supersede another persons right to live.

    Not to mention they consented by having unprotected sex (barring instances of rape of course)

      (Disclaimer: this is an academic exercise to me because I don’t believe fetuses are people)

      It boils down to consent. If you didn’t consent, then it’s not murder to remove a parasite. My right to swing my fist ends at your face.

      Even outside of rape, the claim that consenting to having sex is consenting to have a baby is a stretch.
