I have empathy, which is why I was able to determine your attempt to frame pregnancy as a negative thing as reflection of your own sense of self-worth. You think you are proving me wrong by talking great about yourself and trying to make me look a specific way, but to me, it just looks you are trying hard to compensate for something and are hurt. You are making claims that cannot be possibly substantiated. You seem to think that because I disagree with something you said, and think of you as conceited, it must mean that I am the exact opposite of how you think (or attempt to project) of yourself.
You lack the empathy to differentiate how a woman would feel between a wanted and an unwanted pregnancy. A wanted child is not parasitic by nature as the woman has consented for the use of her body for the growth of an embryo into a child. An unwanted pregnancy is one without consent, and thus parasitic by nature as now the fetus is using the woman's body against her will.
It's like how words have meaning and the same set of actions can have entirely different connotations depending on the circumstances.
And no, it can be very much substantiated from your views on a wide variety of topics like your views on vaccines, abortions, and the plethora of other social and political topics you've given your opinion on, which are all available to read for anyone so inclined.
Also, the idea that you think that you would even be in the position to be mad at your mother for aborting you further suggests lack of self-awareness.
Simple hypothetical situations going over your head and being hand waved away with a "But it can't be a REAL situation, so it doesn't matter." is really just what I am expecting from you at this point.
As an aside, the inability to put yourself into the shoes of other people and situations that are foreign to you, be they imagined or real, and consider impacts of decisions from another person's point of view is a sign of lack of developed empathy, or even sociopathy.
I'm not ignoring women nor am I saying what they should or should not do. I'm arguing that your rationalization of abortion is sociopathic where abortions aren't necessarily sociopathic. Your attempt to imitate me is flattering though.
My rationalization is, and has been, that the woman as a whole (including her life and bodily autonomy) outweigh a third person's feelings on whether or not she should be forced against her will to give her body up to nurture more life. The fetus's rights do not outweigh the woman's rights. If the fetus is unwanted it's a parasite by the literal definition of the word.
If you read into this that I am ignoring the rights or feelings of an unwanted fetus out of a source of self-loathing you should take a long, hard look into the mirror, because they have been fully accounted for and are stacked against the woman's rights and feelings. And what do you know it is the ethical choice in all situations that the person having the last word is the person that already fully exists, has a life, and owns the womb, and not the collection of cells that has not yet reached a stage of development to be autonomous even in the most generous of interpretations.
This would also be something you'd know if you'd actually make an argument in good faith, like considering that abortions simply don't happen when the fetus is developed enough to be able to have feelings, or is capable of survival outside of a uterus, or that nobody aborts a pregnancy that is desired.
Nice word salad. I see you have your work cut out for you.
Ask an English teacher to explain them to you.
