'Are Women Still Human?' | National Review

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : For abortion to be plausible, let alone acceptable, a society must hold certain ideas intuitively.
50% : It is in response to this thinking that feminists began to demand contraception and abortion, technology that, in their view, enables women to participate in sex with the same "freedom" that men have.
47% : If we are to believe those who defend a right to abortion, it is nothing less than the power to end the life of her unborn child that guarantees a woman her humanity -- that is, the autonomy befitting her status as man's equal.
46% : And it is the modern feminist movement's view of the pregnant mother -- of women -- that leads to the demand for an unlimited right to abortion.
43% : When we discuss personhood in the context of abortion, we most often focus on the personhood of the unborn human being, whose identity determines whether abortion is similar to getting a tooth pulled or is in fact a form of killing.
43% : Both contraception and abortion are necessary, in this view, because they enable women either to avoid or to destroy the natural consequences of sexual activity; controlling one's reproduction by avoiding the act that leads to conception isn't so much as considered.
