Abortion is a highly talked about concept. There are many people that believe that it should be supported and that women have a right over their own body. However, others in society believe that it is an unholy and unjust act to partake in. There is rarely anyone that is in the middle or on the fence about this argument. Many people have very concrete and distinct opinions based on abortion. Abortion is an argument that is widely discussed within society and brought up a lot in different…
In 2009, a feminist blogger named Jessica Valenti wrote an essay titled, “The Cult of Virginity”. The purpose of her piece is to highlight how the concept of virginity contributes to a harmful, unrealistic standard for women. For this reason, Valenti aims to educate her intended audience of adolescent readers in the hopes counteracting this damaging social construct. In the beginning of the essay, Valenti reflects on her own personal story of having intercourse for the first time. The date of…
to discern truth from lie. Not every issue is black and white there is a grey area. However the day one turns 18 you 're asked to pick a side or make a decision. One of the biggest issues in today’s world is abortion. To choose to be either pro-life or pro-choice. Do you believe the mother has the full power to choose or should the community should choose for her. Wait… Stop… is there not an in between? As a woman and a Christian I can see and respect both points of view. So the only thing I…
A low-class woman who lives day-to-day on a minimum wage hourly pay finds out she is pregnant. This is her first child, but she cannot afford to pay for pregnancy counseling, because she doesn’t know if she is ready to raise this child, so she goes to Planned Parenthood. Here, the doctors and technicians give her what is needed at no cost. When most people think about Planned Parenthood, they think of abortions, although this is only a small amount of services that they offer. In today’s society…
Planned Parenthood should not lose any funding or be shut down. Despite recent abortion controversies, Planned Parenthood should not be held responsible for pro-abortion advocates. The organization is pro-choice, and intends to give the choice back to the people in order to allow them to choose a better life for themselves. If Planned Parenthood loses its funding or gets shut down, people everywhere, but especially low-income families, will be put in a difficult standing in affordable health…
When you think of pro-choice, what comes to mind? Abortion is the most controversial topic in America. You have people on one side (pro-lifers) who say abortion should be ban but then on the other side, you have people (pro-choice) who feel that abortion should be legal. When it comes down to it, do a woman have a choice with her own body? How can anybody take away a woman’s right to choose what to do with her own body? It took a long time for women to get the right to vote or to be treated as…
the news. This pro-life versus pro-choice debate has kept many politicians as well as many women on their toes. The two articles that I have chosen have two completely different viewpoints on what they believe should be done about the issue. One article states that it is a birth right while the other simply says the mother simply could not be ready so let it be her choice. I believe that the New York Times article provides a clearer and precise viewpoint as to why they believe in pro-life for…

Who is not pro-choice and who is not pro-life? These are just two terms politicians use in their campaigns to sum up their view on abortion. Isn’t everybody pro-choice? Doesn’t everyone like the idea of making choices? Comparatively, everyone is pro-life. Almost everyone supports the right for people to live. There is much more meaning to these terms than they portray at first read. The pro-choice community is in favor of a woman’s right to choose what she does with her body. Specifically…
People will say it is murder. Others will object and say it is just a fetus. Millions of babies die without even being born because of abortion. Abortion destroys the lives of helpless, innocent children and is legal in many countries. People these days take advantage of abortion and chose to abuse it and use it as a birth control. Abortion is a “war against the unborn” and should be illegal everywhere unless a life threatening matter occurs. Here I wrote why abortion should be illegal. 93% of 4…
