None of my arguments related to the soul or "metaphysical personhood". I'm simply taking the left logic to its logical conclusion. If a fetus is a parasite, so is a child; therefore a child can be killed at any age. If the fetus is a parasite on the resources of the mother, it is parasitic on the resources of the father; therefore men should have the right to terminate unwanted pregnancies (or unwanted children).

A parasite on society until it leaves home. Just like a retirement savings plan is a parasite

Guess that applies to you too since you are a child too, barely anybody here seems to realize they were all children once too.
