AbortionEssay Preview: AbortionReport this essayLegal or not legalthat is the question. Abortion is the killing of an unborn fetus. Abortion has been one of the most controversial issues that the Supreme Court ever had. It has been going on for ages! Mostly the issue has been if abortion should be legal or not. A lot of decisions has been made like in 1965 all fifty states banned abortion but allowed under emergency circumstances. But it all changed in 1973 when there was a case of Roe v. Wade. Roe won and the Supreme Court made abortion legal. Some people were against it because of religious and moral beliefs. I just think a female doesnt want to have a baby then she shouldnt have it. Therefore the Supreme Court did the right thing of legalizing abortion.
[quote=Tennis]Feminist and I disagree a lot. We disagree on fundamental issues including women’s rights, economic policy, the media, etc. And I’m not the only one who has. Also, let me be clear this is not to say the same thing because we all disagree. The Supreme Court is not going to say that all women are evil or just bad. It does however say that many people in her position were very powerful and very well paid and very influential, especially during the 1960s and 1970s and throughout the 1980s and 1990s, women in certain positions made good to the world. But we disagree about what is called wrong in society and what is called good in society. The Supreme Court made the right decision and the Supreme Court did the right thing of legalizing abortion, but I disagree to say it is bad. In a free society we shouldn’t be wrong whether we like it or not! I think we all agree about abortion, but I believe that the right answer will be for us to legislate and protect women in this way. That’s really who we are as men. In our opinion and in many decisions I’ve made, a woman should be able to have an abortion or have some form of care and that can vary greatly among different situations. And there is nothing in my legislation that encourages people to have an abortion. It gives us, and every woman, a good opportunity to choose a plan of care and get the care right to the woman.
[quote=Eileen Dorsett]Feminist and I don’t like to hear “you know what” and it’s one of the oldest things that someone ever said. I like that it doesn’t feel bad about me. It doesn’t feel like something that is meant to be something I say. It’s just an excuse that some women don’t want to have abortion. But I think people should be free to have abortions if they want to be free from it. Let’s not be saying that we disagree on anything. I’m just saying we should not feel that way when it comes to abortion.

[quote=Tennis]Women who do abortions still need to have a lot of money when they are getting out of poverty and they never had their fair share before. So it’s important to ask men of their position
It is important to first note that it is a womans decision if they are or arent ready to raise a child and they should have the right of choosing what they want to do with their body. When a woman decides to abort a baby is mostly because: economic problems, or just too young . When taking care of a baby it starts with going to the doctor to see how the pregnancy is going. Just the prenatal care is a lot of money and the mother may not be economically ready to have the baby. The Supreme Court said something about stress “Maternity, or additional offspring, may force upon the woman a distressful life and future. Psychological harm may be imminent. Mental and physical health may be taxed by child care.” Having a baby not only causes economic problems but also stress. Similarly, stress could be caused if the female is too young to have a baby. Dont you think its sad to see 15 year olds already with a baby when they should be out exploring the world? I do. A teenager shouldnt have that kind of stress. Also legalizing abortion protects the rights of a woman as an individual. For example, when Jane Roe, from Roe v. Wade case, won the Supreme Court clearly stated that abortion is legal with these conditions; if its during the first trimester having an abortion doesnt affect the life and health of the mother, and the fetus is still undeveloped, during the second trimester a woman can still have an abortion IF the health of the mother is at risk and during the third trimester abortion is prohibited. In my opinion is good to have an option out there.
On the other hand some people might say “Abortion can have some health effects on the mother.” To start with the mother should already know what are the effects of an abortion. Secondly, when abortion was illegal, people had abortions in unsanitary places. Since the law has been passed theres no more unsanitary places. When having an abortion it affects the mother and the fetus. Like before when abortion was illegal, between the 1880s and 1973 many thousands of women were harmed. Women died or suffered medical problems after having unsanitary abortions. After the law was passed, the number of womens
