Or that is the wrong question. You have posited a false dichotomy.

Is bodily autonomy a right that extends to all people including females from about 12 to 50 years old?

Bodily autonomy is so deeply held that we cannot even harvest life-saving organs for donation from the dead if they dictate it shall not be done.

Abortion is the only exception we make as a society. We even pass laws preventing birth control from being paid for with group health insurance policies.

Anti-abortion positions have never been about fetuses; they are about limiting the rights of women.

When you restrict access to choose, you are granting greater agency to corpses than living women. Ask the right questions.

From context, I can tell we have similar views on how society should decide the question “what options should a pregnant person have?”

Even with that agreement, I don’t see how our views are rooted in some fundamental truth that precludes someone from arguing the opposing point of view (or arguing that the cutoff from one conclusion to the other is at a different number of weeks; I do not believe abortion should be generally legal at 39 weeks, nor at 38 weeks, ...)
