    If the zygote wants to speak up against it then it should be listened to.

    This is an absolutely terrifying stance to take. It implies that one’s ability to object is a requirement before the law or society should consider protections. Yikes

    so can you elaborate

    No. I already explained it was just a hypothetical to point out the lack of logical soundness for the “my body, my choice” rebuttal. I see no reason to continue to flesh out a high level hypothetical.

      Who do you think should be making decisions for the zygote then?

      Thanks for admitting that you made up the second point, that’ll make the rest of this conversation easier.

        You seem to be very befuddled. Do you not understand what a hypothetical situation is for, or how it works? Of course I made it up.

        Society often makes decisions for people who cannot be counted on to make their own. Like, child labor laws.

        Remember: My stance is that whether or not pregnant people should have a choice to have an abortion is a matter of debate, not an objective fact. I am already pro-choice.

          How am I ‘very befuddled’? We are both in agreement that it’s a made up situation that you won’t elaborate on.

          My stance is an abortion is between a woman and her doctor and it is not something that matters to anyone else so it’s a topic that doesn’t need to be debated.
