If, at a later date, the woman wants to have a child, why should she use the DNA of her earlier, aborted fetus rather than conceiving another fetus in the usual way? Each fetus – the one she aborts and the one she later conceives through sexual intercourse – has its own “unique” DNA.
但是，这与将胎儿堕胎的道德性有所不同的说法看起来是荒谬的。如果以后这个妇女想要一个孩子，为什么她使用她的较早的堕胎掉的胎儿的DNA，而不去通过通常的方式怀上另一个胎儿呢？每个胎儿，也就是她堕胎掉的以及她随后通过性交怀上的都有其“独一无二的”DNA。在没有特别理由的情形下，正如改变性伴侣一样，看起来并没有什么理由喜欢一个孩子超过另一个。
