We have all seen the bumper stickers sported by the "pro-life" movement that say: "It's not a choice, it's a child". This slogan expresses what they would have us believe is their motivation--as does the name they chose for their movement "pro-life". They would have us all believe that they're concerned solely with the life of the fetus. But, as I explained before, they don't really care about that. What motivates them is their conviction that sex (or any pleasure, really) is wrong. They see the pregnancy as a punishment.
When they say "It's not a choice, it's a child", what they really mean is "It's not a child, it's a punishment".
So, you can respond:
"It's not a punishment for having sex, it's a fetus."
