It wouldn't matter if fetuses were considered persons. Other people can not demand to use your body to keep their own alive without your consent, and consent can be removed at any time. No one can force you to donate organs to keep another person from dying. No one can even force you to give blood to keep another person alive. Even corpses have bodily autonomy over if their organs are donated or not. One corpse can keep a dozen people from dying with organ donations and you have the right to deny the use of your body.
If a fetus is not a person then it has no right to use someone elses body either. Personhood doesn't equal the right to use other persons bodies as you so choose.
What a horrible thing to say. And I am pro-choice. But saying an unborn baby is using someone's body is so unspeakably awful. Extremists on any issue are always crazy.
The unborn child was created by a deliberate act by the woman (except in the case of rape).
No, it was not. Most women use birth control most of the time when they have sex. If the birth control fails, that was obviously not a deliberate act.
You can't expect women to have sex only when trying to get pregnant. No husband would tolerate that kind of wife. Without abortion rights, married women would have to live in fear of pregnancy, like they used to.
We need EARLY abortions to be available, especially abortion pills. And late abortions should only be for serious health reasons.

Saying that an unborn fetus is using someone elses body is a statement of fact. How do you think the fetus gets nourishment, and oxygen to the body?
Where is it written that a fetus doesn't have that right? I mean, besides here and written by you.
