4. Women don't matter to them. A baby might be a boy, so it matters.

Sorry guys, that is my interpretation of the thinking of the people pushing reproductive slavery on women.

Why are women still treated as property in large parts of the world?

Why was the Equal Rights Amendment never ratified?

Why is it even a tiny bit controversial anywhere to suggest that women should have the same rights and freedoms as men? That women have similar brain structure, physical motivations, and aspirations as men?

How in the world can someone justify treating one human as property to another human?

Yes, I know, that slavery was once justified without any boundaries, just as a matter of power (not race or gender). But we have not risen above that until no person can be enslaved and all people have equal rights.
