There is something I wish to say.
You all know pornography and prostitution? It is something that can be and is degrading to especially women. I am also sure that women can get pregnant in those activities, so I would say that taking away abortion is extra degrading and further enforces men having control over women, if you know what I mean.

In addition to that are cases of incest. There is not much more repulsive to me than to force a young woman to have her father's or her brother's baby.

You can say that again!
But some people believe life begins at conception, when it is a fetus or whatever, when while it is developing life as someone may have said, it is not truly alive still. A fetus is no different from an egg before hatching. If a fetus is not a living thing, how can it even be alive when it just begins at conception? I don't think it is alive by then at all.

A fetus must be alive or it couldn't grow, but it isn't yet a person and is not viable on it's own

I was actually thinking I was missing something. I must have been confused. Thanks for the clear up.
Still, a fetus is like an egg and not a person. We should not give rights to an entity who does not have much rights as a child, anyway. Plus, even as alive in conception, it barely does anything, does it not?

The subject of abortion is all about control. Those that wish to weild it will twist words, slant and contort definition to fit their archaic, groundless conclusions. They are utterly devoid of any substantial, honest concern for the child, pre or post birth. It's all about manipulation, domination, and oppression.
The age old song of tyranny suppressing liberty. The entitled authority of privilege coercing the masses by virtue of sanctimonious morality.

Well, I will say this: Wanting power and control is no excuse to take away rights of others, especially those of women. They can come up with reasons all they want, but a fetus or embryo being alive and other things they may say can only do so much to be a good reason to take away the right of abortion from women, if they are a good reason at all, which they are not.

Abortion bans are more about patriarchy than privilege, imo. To be fair, there's a lot of overlap.
