fetus

One funny thing once said to me on this topic was:

Are you anti-life or are you pro-death?

It threw me for a spin, because I realzed, when it comes down to it, if the life my embyo or fetus, I am fully willing to take its life. If we're talking about an unwanted pregnancy of mine, I am anti-life and pro-death.

To me, a fetus is like a leech or parasite. It's not doing any good for me, I don't want it, I won't later want it, and I didn't ask for it. When a pregnancy is unplanned and unwanted, there is no reason for moral women not to get abortions. In cases of rape or unwanted pregnancies, ideally, abortion always needs to be an option!

When it boils down to it, I just believe that the rights of actual humans take precidence over the rights of potential humans.
