How much does an abortion cost? A beating heart, an innocent life, a human being. "In a survey of more than 1,500 unmarried minors having an abortion in 1991 in states without parental involvement laws". More than 1,500 beating hearts were stopped, imagine all the many more over the years. I am against teen abortion, I do not think its right, unless the teenager was raped. If the teenager was raped, I believe that is an acception to have an abortion. Teen abortion can be a very sensitive…

How many of you have ever played a game of tug of war? In tug of war, each team picks a side, and pulls as hard as they can to attempt to get the opposing team members on their side. The argument of abortion is very similar to a game of tug of war. Two sides, two opinions, with the end goal of changing the opponent’s side. The information I could give you on abortion is extremely extensive, so for the sake of your attention spans, I'm going to be talking about three of the most pertinent pieces…

Abortion is a medical procedure in which the mother is to allow a medical profession to purposefully induce her to miscarry her child while still in the womb, which is at the state of an embryo or fetus. Abortion is an ongoing debate over whether or not abortion should be a legal option that started with the case of Roe v. Wade in 1973, which ruled that abortion was woman’s fundamental right, but limiting that right at the point of “viability” (Brief-Lynx). The nation has been split into…

The purpose of this paper is to briefly describe the historical and recent advancements as well as to examine the ethical merit of the development of artificial wombs. Historically, the topic of an artificial womb extends far before Aldous Huxley penned the “Brave New Word”. In the 16th century, building upon Plato’s description of a “homunculus” – the creation of a fully formed, miniature man - Paracelsus introduced the following recipe: “Let the semen of a man putrefy by itself in a sealed…

If I were to wake up as a woman I would initially be shocked. I would probably think this was a deep seeded nightmare from the time I had a final on female hormones and their reproductive system. I would get up from my bed and look at myself with both a sense of fascination and horror. I would honestly be intrigued as to how something like this happened. I’d eventually find no reasonable explanation and give up, chalking up all my memories of being a male to being one really realistic dream. I…

There are many different types of primates, and they have similar traits that are stemming from their shared ancestor. Lemur catta, more commonly known as the ring-tailed lemurs, are a species of primate. Ring-tailed lemurs are from Madagascar, an island off the southern tip of Africa and are not located anywhere else in the world (Lang, 2005, para. 4). The climate where they live is seasonal, so they experience periods of rain, cold, and heat, which has affected their behavior and eating habits…

Abortion has been one of the main topics in America to produce a plethora of controversy, marking the collision of two values: pro-life and pro-choice. While we know that each side produces a wide variety of points as to why each group believes what they do, we still must be omniscient about the life of the child. Someone who is pro-choice would argue that the woman has the right to her own body and what happens to it; however, taking the side of pro-choice disregards the child’s life. This…

What is puberty may you ask? Puberty is a period of time when individuals reach sexual maturity, and then become capable to reproducing. This time of change in your life is something everyone goes through. During these times of hormonal and bodily change, girls begin to ponder sex, love, marriage, and maybe even children. Some even begin to feel like a totally different person, in a totally different body. Many girls become more self-conscious during this time in their lives, while others get…

This fear made readers misconceive the theme of Bloodchild to be a slavery story but instead this story is that of an interdependence relationship between the T’lic and the humans. This interdependence is shown by the T’lic relying on humans for reproduction in order to carry on their species while they give in return safety from the animals on the planet, medicine in the form of eggs, and a longer life span, but the audience’s fears act on this to make us not want to believe it. If these fears…
