I really enjoyed his answer about the validity of In-Vitro Fertilization. In class, he said that IVF is something that disengages a male and a female from the sexual act of bring a child into the world, as donor eggs and sperm are joined in a petri dish to create human embryos. This process, besides the fact that the millions of embryos have been destroyed to perfect this process, is not natural. Dr. Moore believes that IVF allows anyone to have children, regardless of their sex, and destroys…

consumption, and obesity. Some medications and steroids are also the cause of infertility. A few sexually transmitted diseases can also cause infertility.

So if a foetus has the right to live and a pregnant woman has the right to bodily autonomy, the issue then becomes whose rights are deemed more important, or rather, whose rights prevail in terms of abortion? Judith Thompson’s unconscious violinist analogy argues that even if the foetus has the right to live, it does not have the right to use someone else’s body. You wake up one day and find yourself attached to someone else’s body, and discover that you were kidnapped and this person’s…

In Dwarfism: When Is a Fetus Normal, a couple who are both achondroplastic dwarfs are having their fetus tested for this disorder in order to decide whether to abort the fetus or not. The twist with the decision is they have decided they will abort the fetus if it has two copies of the gene for achondroplastic dwarfism or none at all. The couple essentially wants a child just like they are, and they do not want to raise a child that is different from them. Before getting into ethical…

Abortion is a big topic that everyone has a different view on it. Such as Thomson who believes that abortion should be a right and that women should not be denied to it because it is their body.

As the supreme court stated, denying an abortion may lead stressful life and future for the mother. A woman has a right to do what she pleases with her body especially…
