A great number of women today are facing the issue unplanned pregnancies. Abortion is one of the most controversial issues in the world today. Valerie Tarico, the author of the article, “I Am Pro-Abortion, Not Just Pro-Choice: 10 Reasons Why We Must Support the Procedure and the Choice,” challenges to address issues that women face when going through an abortion. In her article, Tarico uses rhetorical strategies such as ethos, pathos and repetition to make her argument inducing. In her text, she addresses the common issues around abortion, arguing that abortion should be allowed, and is the right thing to do.
The overall structure of the article is orderly and helps support Tarico’s argument of why abortion is okay and is the right thing to do. The author laid out her argument in a sequential format, starting from presenting her credibility, to ten reasons why pro-abortion is okay and with an end statement that touches the reader’s heart of “I’m pro-abortion because I love my daughter”. Within her article, Tarico begins the paper by giving her credibility statement of “Being a mother for twenty plus years” and how she takes her

The topic of abortion is not a topic where one can have a humoristic tone; nevertheless, Tarico had a very formal and dignified tone that was consistent throughout the article. Having this consistency was effective in her argument because it didn’t make the reader bounce from one emotion to another. Along with the tone of the article, the diction used within the article was also very effective to support her claim. Diction was used to help the reader engage in precise images in their own minds, creating a connection between the author, reader and the argument of pro-abortion. For example, the quote from the text, “We move, and our movements ripple through time” gives the reader a picture in his/her mind and that be interpreted in numerous
Gianna Jenson, the author of a powerful speech regarding abortion, explained her horrible personal experience with the process when she explained in detail, her story at a pro-life speaking event. The audience was captivated by her language and the way she made the audience think about her speech and exactly how she delivered it. The author wrote this impactful speech in order to share her story with others and hope it would influence at least one person and alter their opinion. Gianna Jenson writes and effective argument against abortion in order to tell her own personal story by appealing to the reader’s sense of pathos, using rhetorical questioning and charged emotional language.
She tries to convince the reader that although the woman may think that she has no other option, there will always be something more appropriate than abortion. In summary, the author says that it is wrong to act impulsively and that women need to think about the consequences before attempting the termination of her child. She explains how the small human inside is “alive and growing” (P 23). Mathewes-Green addresses the concept of the child being “unwanted”, and how that is not true because “we are valuable simply because we are members of the human race” (P 21). The language the writer uses has a strong effect on a woman's heart, especially future and current mothers.
The victims are not only the people who suffer a “real” disaster, or crimes, fetus can also be a victim. Though victim is not a sentience being, and they apparently fail to the requirement of mentation. Empathy faces the risk of ending of life, they directly do harm on them. For more, contraception is an attempt to question future-like-ours theory. The essay does not analysis the contraception as immoral and wrong.
According to Aristotle triangle, he advocates for the ability to persuade the audience and speaker with employing pathos, ethos, and logos. The ethical appeals are the ethos; emotional appeal is pathos, while the logical appeals are logos. Abortion is a hotly debated issue across the world. In the USA, the current political climate alongside the economic recession is affecting factors precipitating abortion, and this is warranting investigation on the reasons for the same (Lawrence, et al. 2005). The abortion in America is a big issue, and therefore the paper examines the ethical, moral and logical arguments behind seeking, statistics, and justifying the acts.
In today’s society, abortion is a controversial topic. Many people dispute if it is moral to eliminate the potential of the unborn fetus or if it is fair to force the parent to keep and raise the baby if the parent isn’t ready. In Sallie Tisdale’s We Do Abortions Here: A Nurse’s Story, the author uses imagery and internal conflict to recreate her experiences as a nurse employed at an abortion hospital. She does this to make her audience understand her and the people who work in abortion hospitals’ perspective.
1. Compare and Contrast A. Summary for first author U.S. Senator Marco Rubio, from “Why Abortion Is Bad for America,” The Human Life Review (2012), discusses why he is against abortions from mainly a moral viewpoint, rather than a political viewpoint. Overall, he states that an unborn child is still a human being and that they have the right to live. Rubio states agrees that the mother has her own right to do whatever she wants, but when there is a child living in her, that child has its own right. Therefore, the mothers “are the voice of children who cannot speak for themselves.”
In the article, the author Valarie Tarico is for abortion. She believes abortion is right and men and women should make a family however they want to make it. She says that it is one of the biggest decisions in life to bring a child into the world. She then goes on and explains ten reasons why she is for abortion. Her reasons for abortion are; limiting the amount of time a woman has a child is “female empowerment and equality”, pregnancies are better when they are spaced out, parenting is a hard job, having a child that was expected is better for couples, the process of reproduction is not perfect, morality is about the health of those who can feel, birth control can be ineffective, she believes in fresh starts, people have the responsibility
Abortion is not only a fluctuating concept in our society, but an ethical and emotional debate, as well. The image I have chosen presents concepts from a cultural and historical background, as well as presents an ethical, emotional, and logical appeal to the audience. The debate about abortion has simply been overblown and exhausted. The truth of the matter is, abortion is murder. Ending a life, whether innocent or guilty, is murder.
Women who are victims of rape will always be in remembrance of their terrifying experience, which sometimes result in neglect and unfair treatment of the child due to the woman’s rape trauma syndrome. Women who are not financially stable that are pregnant and oppose abortion live in poverty. If abortions were banned it would increase illegal abortions which have critical effect to the woman’s health. Statistics estimate that the risk of death from an abortion is 0.6 in 100,000. The risk of death childbirth is 14 times higher, 8.8 in 100,000.
In this speech I hope to present a persuasive moral argument that abortion is akin to murder and should be avoided, even if the child is unplanned or unwanted or the women would be in danger by the consequences of abortion. (Transition: Let’s look more closely at the health risks posed by cell phones.) Body I. Abortion is a murder. It is the intentionally killing of a human being and it is also can be considered as a war on the unborn which are obviously defenseless and voiceless. A. Abortion denies the right of the eternal being to have a mortal experience and also learning experience in this world.
Abortion is one of the most controversial topics of all times. There are two types of abortion, Spontaneous which takes place naturally and induced which this essay will mainly present. Induced abortion is defined by the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. I believe that abortion should be legalised and accepted in all countries for different reasons such as; it 's cruel for raped women to go through with pregnancy, The mother has the right to choose for herself as it is her body not anyone else’s, a young girl is not ready for the responsibilities of womanhood and finally the health of the woman is more important.
Doris Gudino Professor Chounlamountry Political Science 1 27 July 2015 Pro-Choice Anyone? A woman has, undoubtedly, the freedom to procreate, but once a woman chooses to retreat from that freedom, a commotion arises. Abortion is a woman’s choice for many reasons. It’s her body, therefore, no one else can decide for said person.
Coursework Assignment : Argumentative Writing (2nd draft) (An opinion column, which tackles the polarising issue of abortion, specifically under the Brazilian laws and their recent changes, and which is to be published in the weekly magazine “Veja”, aimed at the general public) MIND YOUR OWN UTERUS I do not think I can emphasise this strongly enough - I’m truly in favour of decriminalising and legalizing all types of abortion. Firstly, for those who are unfamiliar with the topic: abortion is the act of ending a pregnancy by causing the death of an unwanted human fetus.
Abortion has been a controversial issue in our society. The options are which path to take in life. The two paths we have to take or to choose from are give the child a chance to live or to be a teenage parent or having an abortion. In the young age of a pregnant women will be the hardest part of her life and when she doesn’t think that she can deal with the fact that she will having a child in young age the only way that she will take would be to get an abortion. The fetus will be decide to abort by their mother resulting in or caused by its death.
