I used to be pro-choice, but I thought about it for a while, and the privacy issue no longer makes sense to me. If you truly beleive life begins at conception then you have no right to privately destroy that life. It is like taking someone's life in your basement and claiming prosecution would be a violation of privacy in my opinion.
"Rights" are given to us by the state, and philosophical debates about whether we have them or not are pointless. We have the rights the state gives us. End.

The state has judged that women have the right to abort their fetus. Therefore it is their right.
