You're right. It should be understood as a right to privacy and a right to freedom over your own body. But for some reason other peoples' pregnancy is something a lot if people feel they have a right to control.
Your definition of what is a human being is not necessarily another's definition. And you don't have the right to govern someone else's body based on your personal beliefs.
Too bad. If I don't want to be pregnant for 9 months, go through the pain of birth, that's my business. Not yours. If you want to save that human you can have it removed from the woman, implant into your wife or daughter who will give birth. You can pay the expense of that as well. Otherwise, mind your own business. And just to be clear. I never had an abortion or miscarriage and did have 2 babies. I loved expecting and giving birth because it was my choice. I wouldn't wish the pain, expense and discomfort on someone unwilling to bear it.
It could be argued that anyone (including men) who is not prepared to take on the responsibility for the care and nurture of another human being should abstain from the activity that potentially produces human beings. But human nature being what it is, the only viable public policy is to make abortion safe, legal and rare. It is very naive of those opposed to abortion to think outlawing it will put an an to it. Did we learn nothing from Prohibition and the War on Drugs?

Except you completely overlook the fact that abortion involves another human being. Simply ignoring the fact of prenatal life is a bit disingenuous.

They don't care they just want to tell people what to do. They hate personal freedom..
