Since you will never be pregnant or give birth, you should not be allowed to force someone to go through those processes. I don't care if you think the fetus is a person or not. I agree that the woman who got pregnant was stupid, and I absolutely believe in birth control. But I've had two children and I believe it would be heinous to force someone to go through that against her will.
Apparently I was more successful imagining and attempting to summarize the mindset of a certain kind of "pro-life" male than I thought. Not my sentiments by any means. But I do think this is how some people justify what to me is an obviously morally contradictory congerie of opinions. I should have put quotes around it...
