This quote highlights the importance of shifting the focus from viewing abortion purely as a right to instead recognizing the broader significance of privacy and reproductive control. It suggests that the crux of the issue lies in preserving individuals' autonomy over their own bodies and reproductive choices, rather than simply defending the act of abortion itself. By framing the discussion around fundamental rights to privacy and control, a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of reproductive healthcare can be fostered.
