    Tiny human? Is that what you call a formless mass of cells?

    Zygotes and embryos are closer to zygotes and embryos of other species then they are of fully developed human babies. Would you consider the zygote of a pig a “tiny human”?

    Another note, no one studies with weed. Why do I even bother with these out of touch people?

      you get a biopsy well I’m going to take this tiny human down to the lab to see if it’s malignant. Now give me your arm so I can extract some liquid human

      What we really should be doing is normalizing the name “maybe-baby” for fetuses…“fetus” sounds too clinical. So people colloquially call it a baby, and that makes some people think of any stage of fetus as a baby, despite the fact miscarriages are extremely common and sometimes they just die randomly even very late in gestation…

      So it’s really a maybe-baby

        Calling it anything close to baby gives these people ammunition. Im fine with the clinical terms but if we really need a branding campaign let’s get rid of the words abortion and termination. Cell removal? Uterus purge?
