In previous posts, I've stated that I feel 20 weeks seems to best grant the mother a reasonable length of autonomy, while also securing a point at which the right of the fetus to have the opportunity of life supersedes the mother's autonomy.
Thanks Lucidus, (Long time no see),
I don't mind if someone doesn't completely agree with the first tri-mester (then medical reasons thereafter), or has another condition they'd like to add. Overall, I think you would accept the first tri-mester at this time, as it's better than nothing. Add ons might make it a bit too complicated at this time.
Still no idea why so many won't agree or partially agree with this as a compromise. (aside from the majority on the Right, only 3 so far from the Left).
