Consent is given when you had sex. Don't have sex if you don't want a baby. You don't get to kill it because you made bad choices. I'm okay with early abortion in the case of rape and life threatening health issues of the mother.
The woman has every right to deny consent to any person using her body.
Just because she lets a guy have sex with her, doesn't mean somebody else has the right to show up too.
Considering birth is a direct consequence of having sex, yes I would say a woman should be aware that they can get pregnant. You don't have to have sex, and you don't get to kill a baby because you were irresponsible.
And there it is, the moral panic. These scandalous whores are out there fulfilling a basic human need. They must be punished with a life sentence of hard labor.
Obviously women are aware that pregnancy can result from sex. How stupid do you think women are? Just the fact that a baby showed up has not the slightest bearing on whether it has any right to use her body without her continuing consent.
Sex is a basic human need, and consent may be withdrawn at any time. Just because she said yes earlier doesn't mean she can't change her mind at any time.
