What is your stance on abortion?
Are you arguing that if one person consented to sex, but the other person no longer consents to the…
I would argue that the answer is simple: there is no justifiable scenario in which a person can use your body without your continued consent, regardless of circumstances. Whether it is sex, pregnancy, a medical procedure, or anything else, you have the right to revoke consent for further use, even if the other party's life is at risk.
If someone is using your body against your consent, then they are violating you and your bodily autonomy. As such, you have the right to defend yourself and stop them from continuing to violate you, including killing them, if need be. The right to life of someone who is violating you becomes irrelevant. This has already been well understood in nearly all other cases, such as assaults, rapes, home invasions, war, etc.
The rights of the child, who, in the scenario of unwanted pregnancy, is the violator, is irrelevant.
