It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter when life begins.
It doesn't matter if it's a fetus or another human being.
The entire argument is a distraction, a red herring, a subjective and unwinnable argument that could not matter less.

NOBODY has the right to use your body against your will, even to save their life, or the life on another person.
That's it! That's the argument.
You cannot be forced to donate blood, or marrow, or organs, even though thousands die every year on waiting lists.
They cannot even harvest your organs after you die without your explicit, written pre-mortem permission.
Denying women the right to abortion means we would have less bodily autonomy than a corpse.
