    What context?

    It’s nobody else’s choice

    Nobody else is gestating the foetus, nobody else will potentially be squeezing it out of their body, to great cost

    The toll that pregnancy takes on women is woefully underestimated by almost everyone.

    Women lose teeth because the foetus parasitises their calcium to such a great extent

    There is no “context” other than being OK with forcing a woman to be an incubator

    I stand by my original statement

    The only reason a woman needs for an abortion is that she wants one.

    It’s that simple.

      I wasn’t arguing with you, you misunderstood my point. I was just adding onto what you said.

      My point being: when we start to try to apply moral “code” to something as personal and nuanced as abortion, people always suffer because it’s so personal and nuanced.

      I am agreeing with you, it should be nobodys decision but the woman, because every woman’s situation (CONTEXT) is different, so there’s literally no way to apply some kind of blanket morality to abortions.

      The reason a woman might want one can change based on so many factors, so trying to dictate that women should only be able to get one when they’re needed requires defining situations where they’re needed, the thing is, though, if an abortion is wanted, then it is needed.

      I am agreeing with you.
