The Pros And Cons Of Abortion

There are two main political parties you can choose from in the United States, The Democrats and the Republicans. There are also third parties you can choose from. People can choose to be part of any party. We are divided by the left and right side on the political spectrum. The right are more conservative and the left are more liberal. These two political parties show philosophical differences through their viewpoints on major topics. With so many differences between the parties, finding topics or issues upon which constituents agree on can be difficult.

“How can the “Dream” survive if we murder children? Every aborted baby is like a slave in the womb of his or her mother. The mother decides his or her fate” (Martin Luther King, Jr). This quote, by Martin Luther King Jr, represents how Martin Luther King Jr really feels about abortions, and how abortions relate back to the idea of slavery. As abortions are spreading all across the world many people have wondered if there are any positives to abortions? If there are not any positives to abortion then people may wonder, what are the negatives to abortions, and how do other people feel about abortions.

Abortion is a subject that numerous people have strong opinions about; some believe that it is a form of murder and should be banned, yet others believe that the decision should be for the woman herself to make. In my eyes, the choice to abort or not abort is the woman’s, not the public’s. However, many men disagree with pro-choice.

Abortion is a very controversial topic in today’s society. Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks (Abortion). Many people have issues regarding this topic, while some support the idea. This paper will be covering the pros and cons, people’s attitudes, and how a researcher could possible change your perspective on the topic at hand.

I hold the belief that a woman should have the right to have an abortion if that is what she would like. This means I identify as a pro-choice supporter. If the government ever decide to illegalize abortion, it would mean that women do not 'own' their body and instead the lawmakers do. As soon as a third party, such as lawmakers, are given the power to decide that abortions are wrong and they decide to ban abortions, women are no longer in control of their own bodies which makes them powerless.

Abortion is one of the most controversial topics and many argue that it's wrong, but I disagree, I am a strong supporter of abortions. An abortion is when a woman deliberately terminates a pregnancy, there are many medical methods used to perform an abortion. The techniques used for abortion have changed drastically over time and many cultures developed their own forms of abortions. Originally abortions were unregulated and many women performed abortions on themselves at home, which were very unsafe and many at home abortions resulted in injury or death. The two main methods of abortion as of right now are surgical and medical abortion, these are much safer than previous methods and rarely inflict any harm onto the woman. The surgical method is performed using a vacuum like device to empty the uterus of its content. The medical abortion can only be used early in a pregnancy and requires a woman to take a prescribed pill for the first seven weeks of her pregnancy.

Reproductive rights are a very critical and controversial issue in today’s world. What a woman does for her body would appear to ultimately be her own decision and a very private mater but this is not always the case. As women, it is important to remember that the reproductive rights we now have can be easily taken away. Some people take for granted the openness to birth control, condoms, and abortion. President Bush has initiated policies since coming into office that threaten women’s choices.

According to the Merriam Webster dictionary abortion is “the termination of a pregnancy, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus” (Merriam-Webster). There are many different procedures for abortion including Mifepristone and Misoprostol which are pills used to destroy the fetus as if the woman had miscarried. Other methods include manual Vacuum Aspiration (MVA) and Aspiration. These abortion methods are surgical procedures which use a vacuum to remove the living fetus from its mother (American Pregnancy Association). Certain abortion methods are banned in the United States, such as Dilation and Extraction. This form of abortion is not legal because it is termination of a late term pregnancy. This country has recognized the abortion of a baby in the third trimester as unethical. While

Women considering abortion may be undergoing this procedure due to very serious medical issues, either with the child or themselves. A common, fatal condition in children where most women

Many will say that they are pro-life, while others would say they are pro-choice. When it comes down to abortion, there are many arguments and fights about which is right and which is wrong. There is no way to justify what is right and what is wrong because, abortion is neither right or wrong. There are so many factors into why someone would get an abortion. For instance, if they were raped and ended up pregnant, if they financially can’t support the child, or if they physically cannot have the child.

Abortion is protected by the Fourteenth Amendment, informed by the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Ninth Amendments. Supreme Court views abortion as a “privacy right” and a “liberty claim”. In the 1973 landmark case Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court applied this constitutional principle of privacy and liberty to a woman's ability to terminate pregnancy. Basically everyone should get to have certain rights such as privacy to have an abortion without anyone finding out. The pros of having a “Privacy abortion” is nobody needs to know your story unless you tell them. Reproductive choice empowers women by giving them control over their own bodies giving them right or wrong. Women who receive abortions are less likely to suffer mental health problems

Since the creation of abortion it has been used widespread but it has caused some controversy between groups with different views of this topic. I decided to write about this issue because it has been more on the news lately and it’s very controversial, and it should be talked about not only in the news but with family members as well. When it comes to Utilitarianism, is what I recall, concerned only with pleasure and with pain. Therefore we shall be concerned with the amounts of pleasure and pain in situations where abortion is permitted as contrasted with the amounts of pleasure and pain where abortion is forbidden.

Society can be so judgmental no matter what you do someone will always have a different way of viewing it than you do, or you’re not doing it the way everyone think it should be done so you’re instantly “Judged”. Whatever you do in life make it be for yourself, always make the decision you think needs to be made because whatever the decision is nobody else will have to live with either the mistake or the lesson learned but you.

Ever heard of a person say they’re “pro-life”or “pro-choice” but not what they mean when they say that phrase. When a person implies that they’re pro-life, they are against abortions and believe they shouldn’t be legal, and when a person announces that they are pro-choice they believe it’s a woman’s right to abortion. Consequently, late term abortions is a procedure that occurs between 14-24 weeks of pregnancy, depending on the week the mother is the procedure involved a process called dilation and evacuation after the 20 weeks doctors inject a vaccine allowing stillborn birth. Today abortion/late term abortion is a controversial topic in society, people are either for or against them, the government should outlaw these types of abortion because there’s other options to look into, statics show a mother's life is rarely endangered, and viability.

Abortions have become an epidemic in countries all over the world. It’s something people battle with deciding whether it is right or wrong. Certain individuals believe in Pro Choice and that abortion is a right that all women must have, for various reason such as not having finical, emotional, and relationship stability. On the other hand, there are also many people who believe that women should not have the right to abort a fetus under no circumstances. This view is also like the law in El Salvador. El Salvador has the world’s strictest laws on reproductive rights. The punishment for murder and abortion go hand in hand. El Salvador criminalized abortion 20 years ago and is one out of 5 other countries where abortion is illegal under no circumstance, even in the case of rape, incest or miscarriage. This law has led to the imprisonment of dozen young women. Women who’ve had abortions or those who have experienced a miscarriage can face up to 30 years minimum to 50 years maximum in prison. Recently in El Salvador, a 19-year-old student was sentenced to 30 years in prison after having a baby that was stillborn.
