You know what is NOT health care? Coercion. Equally true for statements such as “You must not have an abortion” as it is for statements such as “You must have an abortion.” Unethical and immoral to shame reproductive health care in order to align with personal beliefs.

Apples to apples. Here’s the spectrum of reproductive care: Abortion care | | Prenatal care | | Infertility care Which part of the spectrum is unclear to you?
-
I get that your rampant self-righteousness is a defense mechanism, but you come across as quite a ghoul when you equate “abortion care” with “pregnancy care.” Having an abortion is the single most horrifying thing I’ve ever done, and I wish I’d known it wasn’t my only option.
-
It's sad that you regret your abortion, but you are by far in the minority. Abortion is health care. That is a fact that your emotions can't/ won't change.
-
In what way is it health care? In the vast majority of abortions, both mother and child are healthy.
-
Is pregnancy a medical condition? Does pregnancy alter physiology and increase risks to poor health outcomes? Has anyone ever had lifelong health sequelae from having been pregnant/given birth? Is prenatal care health care? If you answered “yes,” those are the ways.

If I chained you to my body against your will and without your consent would I have the right to kill you if I decided you weren't a person, such as an inhuman child killing monster? This is the standard you use to justify your actions.

She's already been born and doesn't rely on your body to survive. Science dictates who is a person when, not irrational zealots. Your "logic" fails on every level.

Are you honestly ok with ending the life of a future human being? It never bothers you to think of the life that could have been if it wasn't ended by you?

Don’t even argue with this monster. She has already confessed to infanticide.pic.twitter.com/nPIl32OXBF

Sure, pal. The OB/GYN who provides maternity care & delivers babies admitted to infanticide. go look up the word :/

I’m shocked he would buy into false propaganda and attempt to defame me. Shocked, I tell you.

Prenatal is so that the mother is ready to have a baby. Abortion is to end it’s life, no matter what the reason. One is caring for life and the other isn’t.
-
No, it is not. Prenatal care is to monitor the health of the mother and the fetus. And we do that because pregnancy is not risk free.
-
Monitoring the health of the baby and the fetus is not the same as deciding the risk factor and aborting the fetus and calling it “care”.
-
Respecting people’s autonomy is “care.” Doing no harm by not forcing someone to continue a pregnancy against their will is “care.” Abortion is health care and follows the basic principle medical ethics. Being against abortion goes against those ethics
unethical. -
No, respecting life is care. The life of both women and babies. If you are pregnant, your “autonomy” is halved. You have your life & the other to consider. While Pregnancy poses risks, there is another life hanging in the balance, so “doing no harm” means not to harm that life.
-
If pregnant people are not fully autonomous, then they are also not fully human.

They are super human!

Logic isn't one of your strengths, is it?
