Not really. You just have a generic position on the subject, one that ignores all of the philosophical, moral, ethical and scientific material in favour of some kind of lazy cede to the women position. That's not a fault of the subject.
To me this is among the most pointless of all political debates. People who believe fetuses are people put about as much reason into their beliefs as young earth creationists do. You can't reason with religion.
Very idiotic comment. What are fetuses, giraffes? I myself was convinced to have my abortion position by Christopher Hitchens, your comment is a terrible strawman.
I think I would put my position at 23 weeks, abortion before 23 weeks should be available, after 23 weeks the fetus has a reasonable shot at survival outside of the womb. That's not third trimester ("late term") by the way, that's second trimester. Late term is kind of a meme for centrists to cite at each other to find common ground on a topic. Only maniacs would support aborting a literal fully developed baby and they're not worth debating.
I have zero sympathy for people who engage in actions that fundamentally come with a
KNOWN risk of pregnancy. If a woman is raped then she obviously hasn't consented to risk procreation, and a certain ignorance to the risks increases as the age of the people having sex lowers of course. But people who moan about their right to evacuate an intruder inside their body are pretending as if they didn't know what they were risking.
People are irresponsible as shit these days so I shouldn't be surprised that they can't even on a basic level admit they put that fetus there, it didn't put itself there. Choosing pleasure over responsibility is the sign that someone shouldn't be a parent, but unlike others who use that as a justification for abortion I would just say give the baby up for adoption so you can go back to having fun or whatever the fuck you prioritize. I'm not convinced by
muh wamenz rights when it comes to this subject, women aren't special - they don't have a magical right to kill a fetus because it's inside of them. That's just retarded, frankly.
And as the science on the subject continues to develop, supporting abortion will more and more become an anti-science position, much like climate science where people more and more have to oppose the research ideologically because the science is getting better and better. Feminists actively shun scientific arguments against abortion already, it'll only get more faith-based, ironically.
