Yes, I can see how human rights are being infringed upon by thousands of voluntary abortions that don't affect the liberties or quality of life for society.
Taking the Federal Gov out of the equasion of killing babies and leaving it to the decision of the states is not misogyny

we have so many option now to prevent pregnancy. Almost to not need abortion. i understand for very rare circumstances and i understand a right to medical freedom. But because we have other options beside killing babies why do we not use them. Why not have every child at reproductive age be put on birth control instead of abortion? If you really want to have unwanted pregnancy stopped. It is an easier, more humane solution. Have planned parenthood put internal arm birth control for free. solution easy..a reply to: TzarChasm
The problem here is that the US has so many taboos around contraception. Particularly condoms. So many men refuse to wear them because of the stigma or because of urban myths.
If you're sleeping with guys that refuse to wear a condom because of stigma or urban myths, maybe you need to be more choosy about your partners.
Your poor life choices are not the baby's fault.
Maybe you should direct your ire at the people who spread this misinformation. If this stigma didn't exist, then there would be fewer unplanned pregnancies, and thus fewer abortions.
Remember, it's not just the woman making a poor life choice, it's also a guy who believes some garbage story that they read on the internet about chemicals in condoms effecting fertility or restricting blood flow, or whatever the doom porn of the day is.
Ignorance swings both ways.

I'm referring to two consenting adults, that makes up 95% or more of pregnancies
You think about this, with two consenting adults, why do you think so many women have abortions.
Ponder that.

Actually it absolutely is retruend to states right
Actually, show me. Please site from the draft where it absolutely hands women's reproductive rights exclusively to the states. Show me where the draft opinion bars the federal government through Congress from banning abortion or codifying Roe V Wade.
If this decision nullifies R v W, The States will automatically have their own authority to legislate because the Federal Laws are silent. 🚬

And already it has begun.
(and so it begins. . . )
The de-humanization of the unborn human.
Because if you don't think of them as living, growing, humans, then you can do whatever you want to them.
Explain to me why impregnation is considered a human right and abortion isn't. By law, any consenting adult of any background with any qualification or lack thereof is granted the ability to reproduce but not the ability to terminate gestation. If I didn't know better, I'd say this isn't about enforcing family values but making sure the population stays at peak numbers regardless of how many children are removed and rehoused by the state. If abortion is unethical and borderline sinful because human rights, it reasonably follows that parenthood must be licensed and regulated by the state to ensure the maximum welfare of children nationwide...because human rights. Unless that kind of thing stops being relevant the moment they are born?
Laws are put in place to follow. It's up to the people whether or not they want to follow them. Everyone knows that if you break the law, there are consequences to pay.
It's almost like you either didn't read my remarks or didn't really think about your response.

Do you think this will stop at surgical abortions?
Plan B will be next, and who knows what else.

Misogyny aside, how are you gonna feel when Congress passes a bill to codify Roe V Wade or ban abortion?
And then women won't be able to own property. And then women won't be able to vote. Hyperbole much?
Video: South Texans adapt to near-total abortion ban with Plan B pills and trips out of state
Court decisions have gone back and forth on the ban’s enforceability over several weeks. While the law’s constitutionality is questioned, the Biden administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to stop enforcement of the ban. The high court will hear two legal challenges to the law beginning at 9 a.m. Monday. For now, the near-total abortion ban is still being enforced.
