The point is that from a libertarian standpoint, even if you accord a fetus full human rights, it does not follow that the government should force the mother to carry it in her body, feeding off of her, for 9 months. This is obviously a gross violation of personal rights, far more serious than property rights. In fact, it could be argued that it is similar to governmentally enforced rape.

No it isn't. A mother has the responsibility to provide for her children, both in the womb and out.
