Yes, this is what I mean. I do not believe a woman has something coming to her, that's ridiculous.

Although I still don't understand how any of this changes if the fetus is the product of rape, which is where we started. As someone else said, the harm to it is no less in those circumstances.

Logically, you are right. But still, there seems to be something intuitively different about a woman's rights in this scenario.
