a woman’s natural right to control her own body, by means of an abortion

A better means would be to not lay with a man if you don't want to become pregnant.

"A better means would be to not lay with a man if you don't want to become pregnant. "

Exactly. The natural right to control your own body is preceded by the natural DUTY to control your own body. If women controlled their own bodies, 99% of unwanted pregnancies would not occur. (I'm exaggertedly claiming that only 1% of pregnancies are due to forcible rape. Even Alan Guttmacher would agree it's less than that.)

"If you don't want to make a baby, don't do the baby-making thing."

"Control your own body. A pre-conception right." How about those as slogans for Libertarians for Life?
