It is a common trope that many anti-abortion advocates justify their own abortions by framing it as “the only moral abortion is my abortion.” Most pro-choice advocates instinctively reject this framing of some abortions as permissible and most as problematic. But we need to be careful not to draw upon this framework in our public discourse. As tempting as it may be to use examples of “moral abortions,” such as treatment to save the life of the pregnant person, we need to make it clear that bodily autonomy and a right to access care make all abortions moral.
