> that women have a right to do what they want with their own body This is not much different, since as a non-sentient individual, the fertilized egg is a part of the woman's body. I can't speak for others, but I certainly look for the line when a foetus becomes a "person." I'd like to see some surveys on how many Americans support abortions in which terms and why, but haven't found any. > that abortion has social benefits This is a supporting argument only relevant when the underlying action is ethical. Executing stupid people may have social benefits, but it is not ethical. |

Yeah, me too. Anecdotally, most people seem to be fine with first trimester, reluctantly accepting of second trimester, and against third trimester (except where the mother's life is in danger).
