The Pros And Cons Of Abortion

“But because abortion will always deal with what is to create and sustain life, it will always be a moral issue.” (190) No matter what I say or what anyone says, everyone is going to have their opinion. Abortion is one of those topics you don’t just bring up at the dinner table. Abortion shouldn’t be done at free will. There should be boundaries set into place when dealing with this

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.

Pro-life versus pro-choice has always been a controversial issue due to religious reasons and our countries constitutional rights. The woman’s right to have a say on her pregnancy has slowly progressed throughout our countries history, while only allowing women the right to make their own choice on whether or not to keep their unborn child within the past 50 years. “The 1973 Roe v. Wade decision guaranteed a woman 's right to an abortion,” states Judith S. Baughman, editor of American Decades. However, this was not always the case and still causes controversy among many people living in America due to religious reasons.

Once abortion was ruled protected by the Fourteenth Amendment it should not be debatable. Women have the right as humans to do with her body as she pleases. What is a human right? A human right is defined as a right that is believed to belong to every human being. Abortion is considered a human right because receiving the procedure falls within the right to privacy. Imagine a woman with a doomed fetus not having the right to abortion. A doomed fetus is one that will not survive outside the womb. She will be forced to carry that child to term and watch it perish. Forcing a woman to birth a child knowing it will not survive long is cruel and unusual punishment. Although, the woman has no choice but to abort her fetus, she will still be stigmatized and stereotyped as a “careless woman who only cares about

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.

According to the article “I was hours from deaths” says many women risked their lives due to very danger procedures. According to the article three women died as a result of illegal abortion. , Furthermore Haris discusses the arguments abilities of women having an abortion should be a relief, if women aren’t ready to become a mother she should have the right to have an

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.

In the 40 years since passing of the legislation by Roe v. Wade that gave women a choice to have abortion, a lot has changed. There has been a great deliberation on the topic of abortion. This includes issues surrounding problems of having abortions to the likely advantages of abortion. Legally induced abortion is defined as an operation or procedure which is performed by a licensed professional or physician with an intention of terminating a known or suspected intrauterine pregnancy in order to produce a non-viable fetus. This can be done at any time of the gestational age. Over the past few years, there have been significant changes and alterations in the demographic composition of both young and elderly women who procure abortions.

There were many risks initially and abortion was legal until around 1880, which was when most states had banned it unless in a life-threatening situation. (Dellapenna 89) An anti-abortion legislation started to appear at this time, attempting to ban any form of birth control and keep women’s suffrage from occurring as a way of controlling women. Abortion was soon made illegal, with medical professionals stating that they needed women to reproduce due to declining birth rates. Regardless of the law, women still had abortions. Since they were illegal, women who chose to have abortions were in much more unsanitary conditions and many gained infections or other things as such. (“History of Abortion in the

Up until 1973, women were not granted the right to abort a baby (McLemore & Levi, 2011). Abortion was deemed as illegal. That was merely 43 years ago, meaning that women who did not want to proceed with their pregnancy went through illegal, or unsafe, abortions. According to Lisa Haddad (2009), who was in clinical when she wrote this

Abortion is one of the most polarizing topics in America today. Those who are against it are utterly abhorred by it, while those who support it feel it is an untouchable right that they are owed. Whichever side of the argument that you take, abortion is a relevant topic and I think that it will be brought even more into the spotlight in the next few years. As there are more and more stories of young women dying during illegal procedures, the government will eventually have to step in and make a decision. I hope that when that time comes, the law-makers take into consideration the rights that women are granted by the constitution. The freedom to do what we wish with our bodies is a fundamental right afforded to all Americans, and to take away
