“The Morality of Birth Control.”
“The Morality of Birth Control” by Margaret Sanger, an American Birth Control Activist, gave logical information, arguments about ethics for women, and brought out an emotional response.

Finally, the rhetor clearly and proficiently brought out emotional appeal in her speech. Those who were against birth control were, “…irresponsible and reckless ones having little regard for their consequences of their acts.” Margaret Sanger called out this group, exposing
