At six months were talking about more than a fetus. Baby has lungs, eyes that move around, and they listen to sounds coming from outside the woman’s body. But sure, let’s just rip 'em out and flush them so she can fit in jeans again. Sorry, but it’s a little fucked up.
And at six months a woman still has bodily autonomy. Period. End of story. That you think a more developed fetus means you can dictate what happens with someone else’s body is what’s fucked up.
Take a look at that phrase. A fetus isn’t capable of bodily autonomy because they require their mother’s body in order to stand a chance of eventually existing (with bodily autonomy) in the world outside of it.

What if the unborn is a girl? At 6 months, they deserve a say in their bodily autonomy. Why are you such a raging ageaphobe?

Which is precisely the fucking point.
