    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.
