I’m pro-choice because the personhood of a embryo/fetus is irrelevant: no person has the right to impose themselves on another’s body.

I’m pro-choice because without the right and ability to say no, we lack the ability to say yes.

I’m pro-choice because every child should have the right to be a chosen child, whether or not their conception was intended.

I’m pro-choice because parenthood is way too damned hard for anyone to be forced into it.

I’m pro-choice because people with uteruses are, y’know, people, and capable of making their own decisions.

I’m pro-choice because there’s no way to ban abortion without upping the death rate of women.

I’m pro-choice because intended or not (and I’d argue it mostly is), the outcomes of abortion bans are misogynist and reify patriarchy.

I’m pro-choice because I refuse to tell you what to do with your body, and I wish the same right extended to me.

I’m pro-choice because banning abortion doesn’t help recognize the personhood of children, it removes the personhood of people with uteruses.
