Round 1

#1
Woman owns her own body. Her body doesnt ever belong to the fetus. Fetus at no point has right to her body more than she does. Body ownership is most important and is the basis of all other rights. You cannot do anything without body ownership. No different basic right can exist. Fetus, which occurs due to the fact that woman gets unwillingly pregnant, does not enjoy any rights to woman's body. In the same way man doesnt own woman after he has sex with her, fetus doesnt own woman just because fetus is sometimes result of sex. Drinking water results in pee, but this doesnt mean my pee owns my body. At no point can unwanted condition be used as reason for woman being subjected into slavery.

People either own their bodies or they dont. If they dont, then no rights can exist. If they do, then abortion is okay because it is simply woman removing unwanted attachment to her body. My opponent might talk about how people in some cases own their bodies and in others dont, which means have rights in some cases but not in others, but here, my opponent is defending 9 months of slavery, forced child birth and risking life. Forced child births mean woman has no right to her body, fetus get to violate woman's rights.

It kills a fetal human being.

Infant humans and baby humans are the worst age group morally to murder as they are young. Fetal is even younger.
