if fertilized eggs have legal rights, why not UNfertilized eggs?

[Anonymous]

The difference between fertilized and unfertilized eggs is tiny compared with the difference between an egg and a viable baby. They both need the support of a willing or unwilling womb for 9 months.

Why stop at fertilized in the push for personhood?

Because an unfertilized egg can never be a human. Unless it's met up with a sperm and is therefore fertilized.

Because a woman's body trashes its own unfertilized egg every month.

Because ana hasn't had anything to do with it yet. And our reproductive rights are all about what the men think is best.

It does that with fertilized eggs too.

[Anonymous]

Because we are all equal, except that some are more equal than others

Unfertilized egg is nothing more or less than half a human or half assed like this thread

I'm pro-choice, but the argument is that an unfertilized egg is not a unique and complete genetic package. The difference between fertilized and unfertilized eggs is vast, if you consider their potential.

The only difference is fertilization.
Compare a full term baby to a fertilized egg, not much in common. Anything can happen between the trip from fertilized egg to full term baby.
So therefore difference between an unfertilized egg and a fertilized egg is not much

A fertilized egg has the chance to be a baby where as an unfertilized will never.

dumbest ass question ever. i mean, really? did you think about this question before you typed and posted it? maybe you should read it to see how asinine you sound.

can your egg be birthed without sperm, you know, outside of having your period?
will you nurse and care for your egg?
send it daycare and school?
watch it walk across the graduation stage?

some people...

The difference is the all-important male contribution.
If we were governed by asexual reproduction, I doubt this would be an issue.

(tongue in cheek, in case it's not obvious)

But it can if it meets a sperm
A fertilized egg is nothing if it does not attach itself to an uterus

This.

Should embryos stored at fertility clinics have legal rights? Should a carrier be found for each?
