What’s the difference between a “blob” and a “fully formed individual” and why is killing one acceptable while killing the other isn’t?
The fully formed individual has sentience and can live more or less on it’s own. An infant can be passed off to someone else to care for. The blob can only survive by leeching resources from it’s mother’s body. If she doesn’t want to participate in that it’s her decision. Similar to how if someone living with their parents outlasts their welcome they can be evicted.
That’s not the same thing. Anyone can care for a disabled person. They don’t invade a specific individuals body who then has to deal with them for 9 months. People should have autonomy of their own body over non-sentient blobs that have formed inside them without their consent.
The fetus/baby is guaranteed to leave the mother at some point, and evicting it prematurely without a very good reason or regard for its safety would end its life.
Not murder. It’s a blob until it can survive being removed.
I already clarified the disabled thing, they would be in the “or less” side of the statement you’re referring to.
As for the rest, women exist for reasons beyond producing babies. If carrying a child would interfere with their goals they shouldn’t be condemned to it. Stop trying to force your opinions on other people’s bodies. There’s enough unwanted people suffering on this planet already.
How disabled does someone have to be before they become a blob? And at what age does a human being not become a blob anymore? Why then, and why not sooner?
You start as a blob. It’s not something you can revert to. But I guess to get to the point you are trying to make, the point cutting life support becomes a consideration would be the line. Which is already established by medical care standards.
Women can do more than just sit around and be pregnant while pregnant
Not always. Some women suffer greatly during pregnancy and are stuck in bed for a lot of it.
But fetuses exist as more than hypothetical people

Explain how this is true.
