I don't agree. As an analogy, let's say there is a river that begins at 
a spring that is in my property and then runs through yours. There are 
limits on what I can do to that river based on how it may harm you. If I 
decided to dump poison into it thus killing your land would you really 
accept me saying "I can do whatever I want to the water that runs 
through *my* property?" I don't think so. It's the same with the 
fetus/child. It belongs to both the man and woman, just because it 
begins in the woman's body doesn't give her the right to do whatever 
ever she wants regardless of the man's desire.
