    So you don’t support bodily autonomy as an absolute principle. Or else you don’t understand what the word “absolute” means.

      I mean you can tell me what I support and what I don’t understand all you want. I %100 agree with full body autonomy. I have a hunch you just see too black and white to understand the nuance I tried to highlight.

        I’m the one trying to highlight nuance, you’re the one trying to insist everything’s black and white.

          Yes, the “No you are.” I’m in favor of %100 body autonomy, what nuance am I missing?

            100% absolute body autonomy would mean consent doesn’t have to be informed. That’s the meaning of the word “absolute.”

              I agree, it doesn’t have to be. But if you want assistance, that assistance can inform you before assisting. You can inject bleach at home, but a doctor doesn’t have to do it for you. Your autonomy does not obligate others to act and it doesn’t prevent them from giving you information.

              So yeah, I’m %100 for it still. How exactly do I not understand?

                Ok great, then people can commit suicide at home but that doesn’t compel anyone to act to assist them. Looks like my stance is fully consistent with bodily autonomy and your objection is meaningless.
