Persuasive Speech
Topic/Title: Abortion should be legal.
General Purpose: To persuade
Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience that Abortion is an individual’s choice and abortion should be legal under certain circumstances and following strict guidelines
Central Idea: Abortion is subjective to an individual’s moral and not by society’s morality. Safe and legal abortion with strict guidelines can save women’s lives.
Attention Getter: A 16-year-old girl decided to have an abortion in an expensive private clinic and it was over quickly with no complications. She decided to have an abortion because her mom was angry and she was a disgrace to the family at the young age she was pregnant. After 4 years, she was pregnant again and decided to have an abortion again because she was not ready. This time it almost killed her. Not all women will be as lucky as she will.

CDC reported that only 12% of women had abortion due to physical problem with their health and 1% of women reported that they were survivors of rape. One per cent (of aborting women) reported that they were the survivors of rape. 73-74% of women had abortions due to selfish reasons and according to my religious beliefs; this is immoral. However, what is immoral to me might be moral to many women depending on how they define morality is. (Abort73.com,
