called pro-life activists. A pro-lifer’s stance on abortion is that it should never be an option. Once a woman finds out she is pregnant, that fetus is considered a human and has a right to live. Also, there are people who feel that abortion is a great option and should be legal. Those group of people are called pro-choice activists. A pro-choicer outlook is that a woman should have the right to choose abortion since it is her body and can choose to have a baby or not. Choosing to be…
More than 40% of women end their pregnancy by having an abortion. This has divided the world into two sides: “Pro-Life”, believing that having an abortion is an ‘inhumane action’ and “Pro-Choice”, believing that this ‘is a right for women’. While women have their own voice to stand up for them, who is standing up for the human being growing inside of her? Pro-Life should be the only choice because abortion is an ‘inhumane action’ that allows women to abuse their freedom of speech. Abortion is…
Court decision legalised abortion until the point of viability – at which a baby can survive outside the womb – by a vote of seven to two (NARAL Pro-Choice Wisconsin). Consequently, over the past forty-four years, pro-life activists have attempted to repeal the Supreme Court’s decision, with little success. However, the government satisfied some of the pro-life activists’ sentiments with the passing of the Hyde Amendment, which restricts federal funding for abortions, with exceptions for cases…
the most debated question. Alcorn’s book is mainly about persuading those who chose pro-choice to pro-life, and those who are pro-life to think why they chose that way and not just stating “I know I’m right, but I’m not sure why?” (20). His second chapter starts with an event for pro-life, that include his self, his wife and several other people, a reporter approach them asking them to respond to the accusation of “Pro-Lifer’s do not really care about pregnant women, or about children once…
woman’s individual rights but a child’s potential in life. Over the past couple decades, there has been extreme embroilment on advocating either pro-life or pro-choice. If someone supports pro-life, they believe that every human life matters regardless of the circumstance and that government should have control of regulating abortion. If someone promotes pro-choice, they affirm that women should have absolute control over their own bodies and that government shouldn’t be…
Tisdale believes that abortion is necessary and is pro-choice, but she also discusses the guilt behind the operation. In the text, she writes, “I liked the sudden transient bonds I forge with some clients [...] What I offer [them] is not power, but solidness, offered almost eagerly” (1). Showing that Tisdale…
Social justice movements fight wherever injustice and inequality exist. They are always ahead of the time they are born into, and that is why social justice movements have always shaped our world into a better one. One of this movements is the Pro-choice movement, or United States abortion-rights movement, which fight for the right of every women to have an elective, legal abortion. The most cited argument against…
Abortion - a debate where two sides make harsh accusations; that one is anti-choice, and that the other is anti-life. It is an argument that dares to ask what gives something the right to life? The first article I will be exploring is one that supports the pro-choice argument, titled, “The Anti-Abortion Fallacy”. The composer, Peter Singer, argues the belief that anti-abortion laws make women across the globe suffer. He demonstrates how living women can be endangered by the facts he presents…
under what the views are for those that are in governmental power. For example, those that are in a democratic view point tend to be more pro-choice on the issue of abortion, siding with a forty-seven percent that these bans and limitations are wrong, but providing alternative solutions to aid women in having safe and legal abortions (NAF). As opposed to…
questions that do have limitations, while closed-ended questions have multiple choices. These things can help a speaker connect with the audience by relating to them. The controversial topic I would chose to speak about would be the topic of abortion: should it be legal? I am pro-choice, and that would reflect throughout my speech. In addition, I am an eighteen year-old female, which makes an impact on the speech. Being pro-choice, female, and young, I would connect with other audience members…
