You should read it.

A "zygote, embryo, fetus or potential child" is an individual human being who deserves individual human rights. Your comment suggests otherwise, that such a human being is "hers" (the mother), not mine (the father).

Yes, a woman has (and should have) the right to decide what to do with "her body — her property." But the "zygote, embryo, fetus or potential child" is NOT "her body — her property." Indeed, the "zygote, embryo, fetus or potential child" is an entirely separate human being who is temporarily residing in her womb.  At question in abortion is the woman's right to evict an unwanted body guest — a separate person who needs a few months time to grow enough to stand a chance in the outside world.

icon66, I went on with my life. I have been happily married for more than 40 years now, and I have two adult daughters. I do not know what happened to my former girlfriend.
