@Strandjunker I think the argument is "these things don't affect anyone but the people directly involved" so everyone should be free to do what they please, right? However the third example is not quite the same as the first two. Is an embryo not just a tiny human such that we as a society should debate considering them in our laws as a "person directly involved"? Different areas of law treat embryos differently; in homicide cases for instance. Abortion is more nuanced than "don't get one."

@poleguy @Strandjunker Not even getting into the science vs “has a soul” nonsense, when the folks who want to disallow abortion are also against contraception and sex ed it amounts to a huge attack and denial of rights on anyone capable of childbearing. And somehow the answer and responsibility is always “Don’t have sex, whore,” rather than “Just get a vasectomy.”
