"Discommoded"?

Discommoded indeed.

"Free to relinquish the child after birth"?

It has an odd ring to it. I can see your facial expression through the monitor in front of your keyboard.

Yes, it is giving the non-sentient fetus more rights than the woman, whether you think it is or not, and whether you add other phrases characterizing it or not.

<<<Further, a determined woman will always find a way to have an abortion,>>>

If rich and unhampered, a clean, safe one. If poor, maybe you are wrong about "always." In fact, of course you are. And we do know that there will be poor women, perhaps hampered by more than lack of money, who will end up being scraped out without anesthesia on dirty kitchen tables after administering sex to the scraper.

<<<Furthermore, a determined woman will always find a way to have an abortion,... But at least the law will have made it likelier that she will have given it thought,...>>>

How good of the law.

Neo, you have got to download and try this program. Practically every song ever made is available to download for free!
napster.com

The music industry is having a fit!

Oh, it's ridiculously easy to use and a typical song takes 10 minutes to download at 56K speed.
