Are you saying this statement, “ I don't want the state to have unfettered control over a uterus; in any scenario at all.” is consistent with what you are now saying about viability? “any scenario at all” would seem to exclude viability. Yes, I'm opposed to any scenario where the pregnant individual's autonomy is violated. I'll post my previous response again: To understand autonomy, is to understand the limitations of autonomy. I'm sure you've heard the expression "your personal liberty to swing your arm ends where my nose begins". Once a fetus attains the status of being highly viable outside the womb, it should be afforded that same consideration. That consideration, at that point, is in no way in opposition the autonomy of the pregnant individual." Quote:Of course the autonomy is violated after viability. Saying it isn’t because, well, you don’t think it is isn’t really a reason. You could say the state’s interest in protecting the now viable fetus supersedes autonomy. How is the pregnant person's autonomy violated post-viability? Once a fetus reaches viability, it should be granted the same protections it would be afforded sans womb. Personal / bodily autonomy doesn't give a parent the right to end a life post birth, expect in extreme circumstances, because it would be causing harm external to themselves. Therefore, said autonomy isn't being violated. In addition, you seem to be leaving certain parts of my replies out when responding, which seems to be causing some confusion.

I'll post my previous response again: Yes I read your response. You want to redefine autonomy to fit your comfort level. The harm is not external to themselves. Still inside and You said uterus and no scenario at all. Personally if you have the ability to change definitions I’d ask you to eliminate the word. I’ve never heard so many people use a word that they probably hadn’t used twice in their life a month ago. RE: 10-year-old rape victim denied abortion in OH - treee - 07-05-2022 Using fetal heartbeat as a marker of being alive does not make sense. The heart isn't what gives humans sentience, it is the brain. Abortion bills restricting based on heartbeat are not based on logic or science. It's a thin veneer for the ideological extremists to push their agenda.

Is it your position that autonomy is unlimited; without restriction? If not, then I'm not sure I understand your objection. Stating the reality of where autonomy must necessarily give way to a fetus' scientifically determined right to life is not redefining, but rather coming to a logical conclusion. You seem to be focusing on certain aspects of my posts, like no scenario at all, without including the prior sentences that give full context. Respectfully, that makes it very difficult to have an honest discussion of a very nuanced topic.

You edited that sentence in post 2. I copied it without realizing you edited it. When did it stop showing if people edited their posts? Why did you edit your post? No I don’t believe in unlimited autonomy. But I’m not the one who made absolute statements. There were other statements on this board about how the unborn baby isn’t given a SS number and you can’t declare them on your tax returns etc.That’s still true in the third trimester. Do you object to that line of reasoning? RE: 10-year-old rape victim denied abortion in OH - Lucidus - 07-05-2022 (07-05-2022, 07:55 PM)michaelsean Wrote: You edited that sentence in post 2.

Yet, every time you referenced the post, for some reason, you only offered snippets of what I said. As to the second part; those things aren't applicable to the fetus an hour before birth either, but it still had the right to life under Roe -- and what I consider reasonable -- because it's been determined viable. The same would be true at any point in the third trimester.

Something doesn’t make sense but I’ll say it’s on me. I’ll figure it out. Snippets? It’s separated out into its own paragraph. So what I’m saying is those arguments are not valid as they don’t apply during the whole pregnancy. If it’s not valid month eight then it’s not valid month four.

Oh I think abortion should be legal. I just get a kick out of all the statements I’ve been reading around the internet about autonomy.

I think that is for hysterectomies, not tying tubes. My wife was able to sign off on tying her tubes when our son was born because pregnancy was killing her. They wouldn't even take my signature at all. But our daughter is 24 and has many "woman's problems" and doesn't want kids for a multitude of reasons I will not go in to but she cannot get a hysterectomy because she is "too young and might change her mind". Now, I have recently seen some posts around the web of doctors and clinics that will do it .

You may be right, but the point remains - no woman should need spousal consent to do with their organs what they will. We give more autonomy to corpses than women. |
