Hang on. You just said that you were totally totally not okay with infanticide. You also argued that there was no reason to believe just-pre-birth babies and just-post-birth were meaningfully different. And now you're arguing that the mother should have sole discretion over the baby's life.

The article is great--I maxxed out the claps. You've presented the issues wonderfully clearly and there's tons of careful, clever reasoning in it. And I love your reaction to Tooley and Singer.

But--what's going on with this quoted bit? Do you just have two moral intuitions (or one moral intuition and one deeply accepted social stance) in conflict, and you haven't heard the call of Socrates on this one? Or do you have an argument for how this makes sense?
