gollark: If you're going to say "you technically can do whatever you want with your own body, but we're going to practically ban large classes of things" then that can absolutely generalize to abortion or anything else.
gollark: I assumed you meant "bodily autonomy", i.e. you own your body and get to decide what happens to it, based on you saying something about thinking the average person should support ownership of their own body.
gollark: "Ownership of your body ≠ Ownership of abortion drugs or the right to have a doctor do abortions."
gollark: That could equally apply to abortions though!
gollark: Generally, you punish the actual harm directly.
