Arguments Against Abortion
Over the past decades, women in America have been fighting for their rights. For example, on the 18th of August in 1920, women were granted the right to vote. Although women have gained many rights, they still today are fighting to keep their right to aborting a fetus within them. Many individuals see underlying issues with suppressing abortion. Abortion may cause more of an advantage than harm. First and foremost, abortion allows a woman the right to her own body. Some say that abortion should not be used as a form of contraception, but birth control fails daily. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 6% of all birth controls fail each year. Women on birth control tend to disregard the chance of getting pregnant since the percentage is so low, therefore, the only protection they choose to utilize is the birth control. Women should remain to have the option to abort an undesired fetus. Along with contraception issues, there are other factors to reason with to keep abortion legal. Secondly, some women are young and promiscuous. Each individual makes simple mistakes, young females tend to do the same, exceptionally under pressure. Young females in high-school and college are often pressured into having sex and are gullible to fall for any trick played by a man seeking a mate. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also performed a study involving teen pregnancies which resulted in about 26.5% per 1,000 young women each year to become pregnant. Abortion gives young females the option to another chance in life, and to learn from mistakes made the first time.
