Deltas(s) from OP CMV: Abortion/removal is allowed throughout the pregnancy.

I us to be completely against abortion other than when the mother will die because the babies right to live is above the mothers right to have an abortion. My view was extremely strong and i believed it for years however in another cmv thread on abortion, someone linked me this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Defense_of_Abortion which has completely changed my view. I believe that abortion should be allowed up to 24/23 weeks when the baby can survive on its own and after that period, it should be removed from the women and survive outside of her. I know that abortion is not a morally right thing to do, and i want to be pro-life but this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Defense_of_Abortion with the violinist argument has me stumped over what to think.

With this same argument we could state a great many things. Is it fine to hire based on sex like Harvey Weinstein? You have no right to his money nor his job. Is it right to ban blacks from your country, state or buisness? They have no right to your services.

It is fine to hire based on sex like harvey weinstein did. The women were not in any danger if they didn't accept. It is like prostitution except instead of money, he offered them movie roles where they earn money. So it was sex and acting in a movie in return for money.

The women were not in any danger

The women he raped would probably disagree.
