“Women’s reproductive rights”

I love this label. Does this label EVER get used outside the abortion debate?

Women’s reproductive rights = the right to remove a fetus from her uterus.

Does it have any other use?

The right to privacy would be another way of saying it. The right to bodily autonomy would be another. Yet, even on its face, a woman’s right to choose not to get pregnant (i.e. birth control) would fall under woman’s reproductive rights.

It wasn’t so long ago women didn’t have the right to refuse their husbands sex and their ability to take medication related to reproduction is still under attack.
