Except that the woman is expected to give her blood, even her health for the upkeep of that "human being". No one has the right that a woman must provide her body for the preservation of another's life. That is the very essence of bodily autonomy.You analogy is flawed. Your blood... your organs....Doesn't it? Really? You see, we have a legal precedent in this country known as "bodily autonomy". Because of this precedent, you cannot force me to donate blood, even if it is necessary to save a life. Similarly, you cannot harvest the organs of a corpse without the prior consent of the person, before they died. Even a corpse is allowed bodily autonomy.
To insist that a person give up their bodily autonomy for nine months during an expensive, invasive, often life threatening procedure is immoral, unethical, and illegal. You are attempting to demand that women surrender the bodily autonomy that we afford to corpses. Really??????
A new genetically distinct human being is not your body.
It is a human being with inalienable rights. One of which is the right to life.
Haven't you ever heard of being held accountable for your actions?
