If you are anti-choice, you are against people defending themselves from harm. People have the right to defend their bodies from predation. Pregnancy is a process of hosting a parasite that takes resources from another's organs. Just as I can't stick a straw in you and drink your blood without your permission, same goes for pregnancy. There needs to be consent to have one's body parasitized.
