It is not more a part of the mother than a visitor is part of your house.
Have you no idea how you dehumanize yourself by the mere act of supporting murder, i.e. Infanticide.
But, OTOH, it is overwhelmingly liberals killing-off their progeny so, really, what's the big deal.

Most abortions take place when the fetus is no larger than a peanut. It's not sentient and unable to feel pain. Sort of like the tumors that are taken out of people.
As for liberals killing off their own progeny, here's a few facts for you to digest: It's a fact that families that can plan the number of children they have tend to have more money and are able to better care for the children they do have. Their children are healthier, better educated, and do better in life.
Another fact that you seem to ignore is that:
"Of the 12 states ranked highest in infant mortality rates, all with rates of 7.0 or higher, 11 are described by the abortion rights organization NARAL as imposing "severely restricted access" on abortions."
"Alabama is tied for fourth-worst place in infant mortality, with a rate of 7.4 deaths per 1,000 live births. Georgia, with a rate of 7.2, is tied for seventh-worst."
Let's not even get started with how bad Alabama's maternal mortality rate is.Oh, I forgot. That Alabama governor who's so concerned for life? She refused to commute the death sentence of a convict just a couple hours after she signed the abortion bill and the convict was put to death. Yeah, I see that pro-life coming through there.
And as to dehumanizing...what kind of animal are you to wish foster care, possible sexual and physical abuse, possible death, and forcing children to be born to parents who don't want them and don't love them? You seriously think there's loving homes for all these kids? If so, you need a huge reality check. Why don't you take a walk around any large city. Yes, you will be seeing kids who aged out of the foster care system and are now on the street, dealing drugs and being prostitutes to stay alive. That's the end result of forced birthing.

He also has the option of beating her when she asks him to use protection or refuses to have sex with him.
On top of all that, only an idiot believes that using birth control will prevent pregnancy 100% of the time. ALL birth control has a failure rate and many couples using two kinds of birth control find themselves facing a pregnancy.

If there's a fertilized egg, even as a result of a felony crime, all that matters is the protection of the fertilized egg. To heck with the traumatized girl or anything else.

Until the fertilized egg turns into a woman. Then it's of no use to any forced birthers except as an incubator for the next generation.

So then how to you want to proceed if the life of the mother is in danger while she gives birth? Which one has more right to life, the mother or the baby being born? Because sometimes you have to decide.
There are parents in other countries who will kill their daughters if they shame them. That's just their culture and their belief system. Here in the US we have parents who will kill their daughters to let their grandchild live. That's just our culture and our belief system. One is no better than the other and if you endorse our system, then you have to endorse their system as well. It comes down to the same thing in the end, the willingness to kill the daughters and women who interfere with a certain set of beliefs.
That's what the "Right to Life" in the Constitution comes down to if you start infringing on the personal rights of the people already here.

Why do we have to pretend this is men trying to control women? Wouldn't plain old honesty make for a better starting point to the conversation.

No, because it's all based on what women do. Women are the ones who have to keep their legs closed. Women are the ones who have to make their partners use birth control. Women are the ones who end up raising the children after the men have split. Women are the ones who have to take responsibility for the pregnancy and make the decisions about it.
That's what you hear every time there's a thread like this and every time you read the comments on a news story about abortion. It's always the fault of the women. Freaking always.
Do you know what would solve the abortion problem once and for all? Men not pulling their zippers down. For all the men here and everywhere else, tell me, how often have you heard THAT given as a solution to the abortion problem?
Plain old honesty says this is not only about controlling women, but punishing them for having sex outside marriage and not wanting to follow the script of staying home barefoot, pregnant, and subservient to men while raising a pack of kids.

OK, let's play pretend. It's forty years in the future. There are 50 million more people here than there were before abortion was legal. Well, let's halve that number, because at least half of them don't exist because their mothers left or lived in states where abortion is still legal.
So that means red states like Georgia, Missouri, Alabama, etc, now split 25 million more people among them. 25 million more going into foster care in states that don't have expanded Medicaid, have cut back on welfare and food stamps, have a terrible record in maternal mortality, bad schools, and more poor people people with less education and medical care.
Can we use the phrase "shooting yourself in the foot"?

They won't. I won't. And I defy anyone who thinks they can make me back down.
