Excuse me, but "pro-choice" doesn't mean you get to choose whether to abort someone else's fetus.

It was a monkey's fetus (I think saying "someone" implies a person rather than a monkey in this context, but sorry if I misinterpreted you).
Arguably you shouldn't abort monkey's fetuses but you probably shouldn't genetically modify their embryos then forcibly implant them either. Or eat any kind of meat

2) if you are ok with abortions, 14 weeks is isn't alarming territory
