You chose the term pro-choice for yourself in your OP; why did you prefer that term to pro-abortion? I chose it for the same reason I might refer to Black Lives Matter - it's what they call themselves. But you're not referring to anyone else - you said in your OP that you were 'pro-choice'. You don't like the way the argument is framed. So Never mind how It should be done. How do you do it? You haven't told us that yet You are pro-choice. How do you justify that stance on moral grounds?

Not because I give any weight to the "it's my body" argument - whatever it is, exactly. Pretty much how it is done, or was originally intended and is still formalistically supposed to be done. It's a health issue. Some women are mentally unprepared and frankly inadequate to cope with the pressures of bearing a child. For lots of different reasons. Provided a termination can occur before a foetus can reasonably be considered a sentient being, I think that sometimes at least those mental health questions should be determinate. I've told you - that wasn't the issue I was raising. The issue I was raising was to do with the typical selfish intellectually inadequate and morally blank argumentation of modern feminism. Very reluctantly, and with a whole truckland of caveats that the feminist pro-choice lobby wouldn't accept for a minute.
