Antiabortion
Anti -abortion Abortion has been a controversial topic for many years world wild. On the basis of human nature and mentality, people have been divided into two groups: pro-choice and pro-Life. Pro-choice is that group of people who believe that abortion should be an available choice to women who get pregnant and choose not to have a child. On the other hand, there are the pro-live people who are against abortion because they believe that abortion is a murder. Abortion is simply considered as a crime and should not be legalized for many reasons. Many countries banned abortion and consider it a serious crime. They condemn the act of taking decisions for lives of innocent life. Even though, some people argue that the life of the fetus does not start from the moment of conception, but science has proved that the life of a human being does starts from the time of conception. According to Dr. Rober George, “ That is in human reproduction, when sperm joins ovum, these two individual cells cease to be, and their union generates a new and distinct organism. This organism is a whole, though in the beginning developmentally immature, member of the human species” (1). I believe that in the first place when a woman chooses to have sex, whether with protection or not, she does that with her entirely free will. That means she believes that she is responsible and willing to deal with the consequences. Although in cases like rape where women do not have control over the devastating situation, and due to the social and cultural issues when cannot take care of the child, so for such a helpless woman there is always another solution to her problem other than abortion like giving her baby for adoption can always be a better choice. In fact, there are many people in this world who are not gifted by kids, are more willing to go for adoption. According to a statistic, “1.5 million of infants are given for adoption. The increasing percentage of adoption can also be

    What is Pro-Choice? Pro-Choice refers to the belief that a woman has the right to abort a baby from her body. Most people do not know how they stand on this subject. Usually a touchy subject, it is often kept a secret. I did extensive research on this subject after my older sister got an abortion. At first I was upset by the fact that she did it but now I realize that it was her choice and not mine. I feel that a woman has the right to do what she wants to her body. If a woman does not feel that she can raise a child then she should be able to do whatever she wants. If a woman gets an abortion in a case where she cannot raise the child then that is one less child put into foster care. During this speech I will inform you of the background on abortion, the different types of abortion, and also the main reasons to be pro-choice.…

    Picture this: a fourteen-year-old girl is abducted and raped. After visiting a doctor, they inform her that she is pregnant. This girl is only fourteen years old. She is put into a situation that was definitely not her fault, but will become her burden. The young girl would have to care for that baby her entire life. Of course, if she were able to receive an abortion, there would be much less pain involved. Rape victims, as well as women who find themselves unable or unfit to raise a child, should have the right to an abortion.…

    The human body is amazing. It can protect one from sickness, harm. It can create beautiful art or fantastical inventions. It can surpass impossible limits. The human body is amazing. It’s amazing and it can create life. But, we, as humans, can take away that life. Humans can inhibit a person from moving forward. Humans can stop a person from feeling happiness or wholeness. And all because we, as humans, make abortion illegal. When abortion is illegal, it restricts a girl or woman from living the life she deserves. When abortion is illegal, it shows that a group of fellow humans love a forming bundle of cells more than the person standing before them.…

    There are very few topics that can cause as big a rift in people as abortion can. There are only two choices, Pro life or Pro choice. Pro life is the decision to reject any form of abortion. Pro choice is the belief that the decision to whether an abortion should take place belongs to the mother of the unborn embryo. Both sides of abortion have very strong activists constantly fighting back and forth to determine what decision is the right one.

    Women who have had abortions suffer an increased risk of anxiety, depression, and suicide. A study published in a recent edition of the Journal of Anxiety Disorders found that women who aborted their unintended pregnancies were 30 percent more likely to subsequently report all the symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder than those women who had carried their unintended pregnancies to term. A study of a state-funded medical insurance program in California published in the American Journal of Orthopsychiatry in 2002 showed that the rate of mental health claims for women who aborted was 17 percent higher than those who had carried their children to term. And, according to a 1996 article in the British Medical Journal and a 2002 article in the Southern Medical Journal, the risk of death from suicide is two to six times higher for women who have had abortions when compared, again, with women who have given birth.…
