Abortion is the ultimate exploitation of women.
Interpretation
The quote asserts that abortion represents a profound form of exploitation of women's rights and autonomy.
Alice Paul's quote highlights the view that abortion, as a societal and legal issue, can be seen as a means of exploiting women's bodies and choices, reducing their autonomy and rights. It suggests that the ability to control one's reproductive health is fundamental to women's liberation, and when that control is compromised, it reflects deeper societal inequalities and exploitation.
