YouTube: pregnancy and sex

Right. Notice how shallow the argument is when discussing sex. On one side, you’ve got the MAGA type saying it’s wrong simply because “she’s a child”. On the other, the liberal responds that 11-year-old can’t consent because she doesn’t fully understand what’s going on. Neither really engages with the child’s own moral reasoning.
I’m fairly radical on the child liberation scale – birthright votes for all citizens, no AOC, proper self-emancipation routes, that sort of thing. So this got me thinking about early pregnancy cases. I’d like to hear your thoughts.
Personally, I would allow her to give birth – though if she were my daughter, I’d be praying like hell that she changed her mind.
Here’s the hypothetical:
1. She was brutally coerced and raped.
2. She didn’t want to get pregnant this early in life.
3. She believes the foetus has personhood.
4. Therefore, aborting would mean killing an innocent person.
5. She thinks that killing an innocent person – aside from being simply wrong (God, Kant, whatever) – would traumatise and haunt her for life.
6. She wants to keep the baby.
So, is it good, ethical, reasonable – pick your word – to grant her that wish?
Over to you.
