I think that's obvious.

Sure. But I'm not wanting to force anyone to have an abortion, while you're wanting to force others to have unwanted births. I don't think morals have validity. A religion, socity, individual can believe that the genitals of young women should be mutilated to prevent sexual gratification. It's a moral belief that someone holds. Is it valid or invalid? Who's to say. I know I don't want that for my family though, so I vote against crap like that.
