    This is cool but I hate that my mind jumped to “this will be great ammo for a full abortion ban”

    And so I’m not misconstrued: the above thought is a bad thing to me.

        My worry is “you were raped so we’re incubating the fetus until it’s developed enough to give back to you to raise” because taking care of the child once it’s born sure as hell isn’t part of that agenda

      I mean if the state wants to pay for the transfer surgery and take responsibility does it matter for the individual. Outcome is the same for them. Although I really wish the state would first take responsibility for those who can’t care for themselves who are older first.
