Person 1: If abortion is outlawed, women will die in unsafe illegal abortions. Person 2 (our hero): I’m concerned about this too. I value the mother and fetus equally. I’m working for a future where nobody performs or seeks an abortion, legal or illegal.

Person 1: I don’t want to turn back the clock on women’s issues. Person 2 (our hero): Me neither! Our society has taken great steps to address real problems. I’m glad women are taken more seriously and better respected than they have been historically. I want to push forward to expand that respect to include both pregnant women and their children.

Person 1: If abortion is outlawed, women will die in unsafe, illegal abortions. Person 2 (our hero): I’m concerned about this too. Abortion is worse when the mother dies. But I’d say abortion is never safe, since I value the mother and fetus equally.

Person 1: I’m pro-choice because I care about women’s health. Person 2 (our hero): I want people to get the healthcare they need, too. But I think the mother and fetus are both patients who deserve care.
