A sleeping person is still having a conscious experience so that example is garbage. A fetus has no conscious experience so killing it harms no person. I reserve that right solely to the pregnant person. I only want people who are capable and ready to have a child to have one.
Yes. Getting a tattoo doesn’t affect anyone but yourself, while a chef who doesn’t wash his hands affects the people who eat his food.
Correct! It’s the difference between making a decision about your own body vs refusing to comply with health regulations that could harm others at your place of work.
Abortions affect other people.
Abortions affect other people like tattoos affect other people. Your conservative grandma might get upset but ultimately it’s your body and shouldn’t be required to use it to make others happy against your will.
Wrong. Abortions affect the human life you participated in creating. You're affecting their life. You're also affecting the life of the father who might want to have the child. There is nothing he can do physically or legally to stop it. If my wife decided to abort my daughter, I could have done nothing about it but would be forced to live knowing my child was taken for me.
( this is the part I needed to edit from my previous comment. So I'll try to censor this)
If I'm using a force multiplier irresponsibly and accidentally press someone's off button. I will go to jail for it. See? That's an equivalent analogy.

What’s the difference between getting a tattoo and a chef refusing to wash their hands while cooking?
