Short Essay #2 Ethics
24 November 2019
Ethics is a very controversial topic, which is argued to be either good or bad. A major
ethical issue that has been brought up a lot and has become very controversial recently is the
topic: abortion. Abortion is the termination of a woman’s pregnancy. The main debate within this
topic is if it should be legal for a woman to have an abortion or not. This argument leads to the
question whether the action of an abortion is ethical or not. There are two sides of the argument:
Pro-Life or Pro-Choice. The Pro-Life supporter believe that the fetus deserves to be treated as a
life and if terminated, then the mother would be considered as murdering an innocent life. The
Pro-Choice supporters is specifically for woman who get the choice to decide whether she wants
an abortion or not because it is her body.
