Maybe the religious fanatics (manipulated cynically by reactionary politicos) who seek to abolish abortion and (in some cases) contraception, should take a look at Justice Cardozo's words, quoted in original article:

" The idea of consent as a patient's right goes back at least to 1914, when Benjamin Cardozo (who would later become a Supreme Court justice) ruled in a New York case that "[e]very human being of adult years and sound mind has a right to determine what shall be done with his own body."

Or HER own body!!!!

QED.

and yet we continue to force youngs males at the age of 18 to give up their entire body under the penalty of federal prison and report to the selective service admin. with all their personal information so they can be taken in some future draft {as they have hundeds of thousand before} against their will and sent to some hellhole and tortured and die...they do not require this of females...kind of makes the abortion thingy and womans right to control her body pale in comparison....but then its never bothered you before...

/ Or HER own body!!!! Funny, I always thought those right-wing pro-life religious folks were morally opposed to rape. Or did you mean, the right to control her own body after she voluntarily did what it takes to get pregnant? Actions have consequences...
