If you sincerely believed that, you you surely would feel obligated, above all else, to stand up for the rights of the most innocent and defenseless of all Americans, not to be summarily murdered in cold blood for no better reason than that their very existence is an inconvenience to someone else.
If you won't stand for that, then you have no credibility whatsoever in purporting to stand for any human rights.
I'm going to try to engage you rationally here. IN PRINCIPLE, yes, abortion as contraception is a bad thing. It shows very bad judgement in relationships and health care. People should only have sex using proper protection or with guys who are good father material. Real world, people are stupid and they make mistakes.
IN PRACTICE, you are either going to have laws that aren't enforced (like Prohibition, or the prostitution laws in most places) or you are going to turn the whole society upside down trying to enforce a moral code (Like we have with the War on Drugs, which has been a social disaster)
By your logic, we should force rape victims to have their attackers' babies, we should force women to have babies if they are going to suffer health effects but not die. We should force women to carry pregnancies to term even if the fetus is so deformed it will die within hours of birth. You've given a zygote or an embryo or a fetus more rights than the woman it is inside.
I mentioned the case of Purvi Patel, an immigrant woman who miscarried, and was charged with homicide in the Ayatollah Pence's Indiana. There was spotty evidence she used a herbal remedy to induce a miscarriage, and on the basis of that, she went to prison before someone had a lick of good sense.
I've mentioned this before, but there is a country that has the kind of laws you want, the kind of idiocy we had before
Roe v. Wade, and that country is the Philippines. Abortion is illegal in all cases except to save the mother's life. Despite that, Filipina women have 500K to 800K abortions a year, a higher rate than the US when adjusting for population.
You can't even complain about your usual whines about "Godlessness", the Philippines are probably one of the most religious countries in the world, which is why they have these goofy laws to start with.
By comparison, you have France. France, abortion is not only legal, but the government pays for them, and the country isn't particularly religious at this point. Yet French women have 50% less abortions per capita than their US counterparts. Why? The French also have a massive welfare state, they have paid family leave, they have universal health care and they have comprehensive sex education. Oh, yeah, they also massively tax their rich to pay for all of it.
It cuts directly into the credibility of anyone laying any claim to “science”, who believes that there is, in any meaningful sense, any genuine such thing as “trans women”.
If you believe that a man can be, in any sense, a woman, then you completely forfeit any credible claim to “science”, and deserve nothing but mockery for trying to make any such claim.
Guy, psychologists have determined that gender dysmorphia is a legitimate condition.... that's the actual science involved here. Some people think they aren't the gender they were assigned at birth. Period, full stop.
Now, I'm going to believe a psychologist on this issue before I believe a guy who thinks he's wearing magic underwear....
