PHI332 : The Class : Argument ID : Sample Quizzes : Exercise 2.13.7
Pro-choice feminism argues that a woman choosing an abortion is exercising a basic right of bodily integrity granted in our common law tradition. If she does not choose to be physically involved in the demands of a pregnancy and birth, she should not be compelled to be so against her will. Just because it is her body which is involved, a woman should have the right to terminate any pregnancy, which at this point in medical history is tantamount to terminating fetal life. No one can be forced to donate an organ or submit to other invasive physical procedures for however good a cause. Thus no woman should be subject to "compulsory pregnancy." And it should be noted that in pregnancy much more than a passive biological process is at stake (367).
