Abortion has been a controversial topic throughout the world for many years. Whether the support or lack of it is due to morals, religious beliefs, health concerns, and many other factors, there are split sides on this big decision. Is it considered murder? Is it a right women should have and should be able to decide themselves on without being criticized? Should abortion be legal or illegal, and whose rights is it interfering with? These questions are discussed by millions of people every day…

How should a mother act towards her child? Women have the choice to become a mother. Becoming a mother is more than just giving birth to a child. As a mother, you have the ability to create a whole person that shares half you and your significant other’s dna. For nine months you carry a living human being inside of you. Being a mother is falling in love with someone before you even see them. It is a relationship that never ends and hopefully one where the love never dies. The theme of motherhood…

Abortion, in its nature, is considered to be a hugely controversial subject, with pro and anti choice sides levelling various reasons at each other as to why abortion is, or is not, ok. In this essay I intend to discuss whether or not abortion is an individual choice or economic necessity, based off the theories and reasoning of Mary Wollstonecraft, J.S Mill and Karl Marx, and from each authors perspective and what we can perhaps deduce about their thoughts. The phrase 'politics of abortion'…

Euthanasia and Abortion are two widely spoken and discussed about themes that also recur frequently in political debates. Like for any topic in the world, everyone has their own opinion on these themes; but on this particular subject, people’s opinions tend to fall into two categories: those who are in favour because they believe it is right, and the others who are firmly against it due to the fact that they are convinced it is a wrong doing. The question is who are we to decide what can be…

Abortion becomes ethically acceptable when the mother carrying the child is at some sort of health risk or death. A mother is entitled to make decisions for her own body and to protect herself against harm, even if it means killing someone innocent with no intentions of hurting the mother. Also if the fetus is at risk of health problems at the time or before birth, it is ethical that the mother have an abortion so her baby would not have to live in pain or whatever her feelings were towards the…

Planned Parenthood has been at the center of many debates and at the hands of Republicans and pro life activists. Stories about how Planned Parenthood operates on the issue of abortion, which accounts a very small percentage of what they do. The crux of the establishment is to provide reproductive healthcare for women. Both houses of congress are controlled by Republicans and a bill to defund Planned Parenthood was introduced March 17 2015 by a Republican Senator. Bill S.764 would prohibit…

topic in contemporary American history. The two mainstream positions, pro-life and pro-choice, both base their arguments on assumptions that seem to prevent any resolution. Pro-lifers assert that a fetus is a human being, and since we must not kill human beings, abortion is immoral. On the other hand, pro-choice advocates do not consider the fetus to have the same level of personhood as the mother, and so it is not murder. Pro-choicers deem the mother’s autonomy over her own body to be more…

Some may say that abortion violates the right of children to be born, others say women have the right to control their own bodies. On March 30, GOP front-runner, Donald Trump, had an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, where he stated that he was pro-life, with exceptions, and that women who manage to get them should receive an undecided punishment. Trump always seems to let whatever bullshit he thinks come…

Pro-life and Pro-choice Debate Abortion plays on the heart strings of all who are involved. Both side of the arguments are arguing for human life, one side for the mother and the other for the unborn child. Values play the biggest role in these arguments, and each argument can be circular based on people’s values. These sides use many different transcendence arguments for their movement. Both sides use quantity, quality, value, hierarchy, and antithesis to convince people to support their side…
