Hey FYI in the US it has to be this way. In certain states they have an opt-out on drivers license forms, but that's still technically an opt-in. Being a body-donor can't benifit you, so thus your direct consent is needed for it.
I feel like this is more an issue of poor healthcare than personal choice. It seems like rather than the U.S. chosing to be opt-in, they are physically unable to give everyone the choice to opt-out.
No. It's a thing due to its liberal legal system.
This assumes that "you" are a pattern of neural impulses (or a soul) rather than a body. If you're a body, then you getting to beat your heart in someone else's chest is surely a benefit.
Drag agrees that people are minds, not bodies. But it's interesting to hear this logic from a country where so many people argue that a woman is a uterus, not an identity.
