Women's rights over her body by Ms Urshita SaxenaGovindGoyal13
The document discusses women's autonomy over their reproductive rights from an international legal perspective. It summarizes several landmark court cases that established privacy rights and legalized abortion. These include Griswold v. Connecticut, Roe v. Wade, and recent Indian cases recognizing women's reproductive autonomy. However, it notes that in some cases, courts have overridden women's decisions, citing responsibilities to potential life. The document also examines domestic laws around abortion and arguments regarding expanding access. Overall, it analyzes the tension between women's right to choose and restrictions imposed in the name of fetal rights or population concerns.
This paper examines the changing policies surrounding sexual and reproductive rights in the United States. Examining abortion and contraception regulations in the light of health care reform, as well as the rise of ‘conscience clauses’ which permit a wide range of professionals from providing services related to sexual and reproductive health, we examine the continuing ‘politics of motherhood’.
The document discusses abortion laws and statistics in Canada and worldwide. It outlines the key arguments from both pro-choice and pro-life perspectives on issues including when life begins, a woman's right to choose, and health risks. Major court cases that impacted Canadian law are summarized, along with statistics on the number of abortions annually in Canada and their economic and social impacts. Worldwide abortion statistics and laws in different countries are also presented.
This document discusses abortion from a global perspective, covering various legal systems, cultural and religious traditions, and abortion laws and statistics around the world. It notes that abortion is a highly controversial issue that raises fundamental questions about when life begins, a woman's right to control her own body, and the role of religion and the state. The document then examines abortion laws and policies from the perspectives of civil law, common law, Islamic law, and various countries. It also provides statistics on the prevalence of legal and unsafe abortions globally.
Legalisation of abortion in malawi: Pro-life or Pro-choiceCharles Mhango
This document discusses the debate around legalizing abortion in Malawi from both pro-life and pro-choice perspectives. It provides background on abortion rates and reasons women seek abortion in Malawi. Arguments for legalizing abortion include preventing unsafe abortions and reducing maternal mortality. However, opponents argue abortion is killing and causes emotional harm. The document also examines ethical considerations around autonomy and the right to life. Overall, it presents both sides of the complex debate around legalizing abortion in Malawi.
The document discusses the complex moral issues surrounding abortion from multiple perspectives. It examines how groups define key terms related to pregnancy and abortion differently, which complicates dialogue. It also explores the two main positions on abortion - those who believe abortion should be allowed in most or all cases based on a woman's right to choose (pro-choice), and those who believe the government should restrict abortion based on the belief that human life begins at conception (pro-life). It aims to take a more moderate approach to find common ground between these opposing views.

This document discusses the complex ethical issue of abortion from different perspectives. It addresses religious views on when life begins and the sanctity of life. Some consider abortion to be equivalent to murder while others support a woman's right to choose. The document also explores factors that influence views on abortion and considerations around allowing abortion in certain circumstances.
The document discusses the growth and influence of feminism and its impact on culture and society. It outlines the rise of three waves of feminism from the late 1700s to present. The first wave focused on political and civil rights, while the second wave joined with socialist ideals and pushed for reproductive rights. The third wave returned to original goals but also promoted contraceptive use. Radical feminism is criticized for promoting ideas that separate sex from procreation and see marriage and motherhood as oppressive. The document argues this has led to breakdown of family and culture of death. International organizations are said to have adopted radical feminist agendas around population control and reproductive rights.
The document discusses the debate around whether abortion is morally right or wrong. It presents arguments on both sides of the issue. Pro-choice arguments include that abortion should be a mother's choice regarding her own body and health, and should be allowed in cases of rape or incest. Pro-life arguments include that abortion is murder as a fetus is a human being with a right to life, and that fetuses can feel pain during abortion. The document also discusses the ethics of abortion in regards to a fetus's right to life, views on when life begins, and the history and treatment of abortion in religion, law, and other cultures and time periods.
This document provides an overview of the women's movements in the 1920s and 1960s in the United States. In the 1920s, "flappers" challenged traditional values by adopting short hairstyles, dresses, smoking, and drinking. The 19th amendment granted women's suffrage. Alice Paul pushed for an Equal Rights Amendment. Margaret Sanger advocated for birth control. By the 1960s, inspired by the civil rights movement, NOW was formed to advocate for women's rights. Betty Friedan's book The Feminine Mystique analyzed women's roles. The Equal Pay Act and Civil Rights Act banned gender-based pay discrimination.
Abortion ends a pregnancy by killing the developing human being. While some women choose abortion due to financial constraints, family size preferences, or health issues, it is a painful procedure that can cause physical, emotional, and psychological problems. Many major world religions consider abortion to be against their doctrines. Adoption and seeking help from family or friends are alternatives presented.
This document discusses abortion from various perspectives. It defines abortion and provides reasons women have abortions. It then examines the views on abortion in several religions like Islam, Christianity and Hinduism. It also discusses laws related to abortion in Islamic law versus secular law. The document outlines some of the emotional, psychological and physical pros and cons of abortion. It concludes that Islam takes a flexible stance on abortion to protect the mother's rights while preventing taking advantage of that flexibility to perform evil deeds.
The document discusses Palestinian efforts to gain statehood and UN membership through a General Assembly vote in September 2011. The US opposes this move as unilateral and counterproductive, preferring negotiations. If the vote passes, the US will veto any Security Council resolution and may withhold funds from UN groups recognizing Palestinian statehood without a peace deal. The document provides talking points arguing the General Assembly has no authority over membership or statehood recognition and the Palestinian action will harm peace efforts and Israel's legitimacy.
This document discusses opposing viewpoints on abortion and proposed solutions. It begins by defining abortion and describing the different types. It then notes that the majority of abortions are obtained by women between the ages 20-29, and that most women cite concerns about responsibility, financial reasons, and interference with life plans as reasons for getting an abortion. The document concludes by proposing solutions like overturning Roe v. Wade, recognizing fetal personhood, and restricting access to abortion drugs, arguing that every baby deserves a chance at life.
The document provides an introduction to abortion and discusses several key topics:
1. It defines abortion and discusses some common reasons women seek abortions, such as financial constraints, unwanted pregnancies, and rape.
2. It examines why abortion is legal in some countries based on the idea that women have rights that embryos and fetuses lack until viability.
3. It explores some of the processes used for abortions as well as the potential health risks to women and emotional effects after an abortion.
The introduction aims to answer questions about abortion procedures, legality, health risks, and reasons for seeking an abortion. It does so through defining key terms and discussing abortion from various perspectives.
The document argues that abortion should be illegal for several reasons. It provides statistics on abortion in the US and notes that adoption is a viable alternative. The document claims that abortion can cause psychological and physical harm to women. It also argues that the fetus has legal rights and that abortion is against a doctor's oath to do no harm. The document concludes that abortion amounts to murder and should be banned.
The document provides an overview of the women's suffrage movement in the United States from the 1820s to the 1920s. It discusses key events and organizations in the fight for voting rights for women, including the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, the split between the National Woman Suffrage Association and the American Woman Suffrage Association in the late 1860s-1870s, and the eventual ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920 granting women the right to vote. However, it notes that not all women gained suffrage at this time, as Native American, African American, Latina, and some Asian American women still faced barriers to voting in some states.
This document discusses the long struggle for women's suffrage in the United States from 1848 to 1920. It describes how the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 launched the women's rights movement and demanded voting rights. However, it took over 70 years to achieve this goal. Key figures like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton fought tirelessly through organizations they founded. Some western states led the way in granting women the right to vote in the late 1800s, but it was not until 1920 that the 19th Amendment guaranteed women's suffrage nationwide.

It discusses key events like the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 that launched the movement, and organizations like the National Woman Suffrage Association and the American Woman Suffrage Association that advocated for women's right to vote. The document also notes that while the 19th Amendment granted women's suffrage, not all groups of women were able to fully exercise their right to vote due to ongoing discrimination.
The document discusses several key issues in the abortion debate from a pro-life perspective, including that abortion is unfair to unborn babies who have heartbeats, that it is essentially murder if a pregnant woman's fetus is aborted, and that minors should require parental consent before having an abortion. It also outlines the history of abortion laws in the US and notes that the pro-life movement has millions of supporters who believe abortion can negatively impact women's mental health.
This document discusses the history of civil rights in the United States. It covers major civil rights legislation and events, including the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Voting Rights Act of 1965, Montgomery Bus Boycott led by Rosa Parks, and speeches by Martin Luther King Jr. It also discusses rights for different groups such as women, Native Americans, religious groups, gay individuals, and people with disabilities. Finally, it outlines how social workers can help promote civil rights through their work.

This document contains 3 pages summarizing a complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission regarding alleged racial discrimination and unfair treatment at a workplace. The complaint discusses the history of the issue, interactions with EEOC representatives regarding the complaint filing process, and social media posts the complainant made related to the situation. It requests the firing of a law firm for obstructing racial discrimination claims and aims to overthrow racist employment practices. The document alleges that "House Negroes" in the US government have been institutionalized to fear speaking out against racial injustices through Jim Crow-like systems.
The document discusses several arguments against abortion from a secular perspective, including scientific, legal, and moral arguments. Scientifically, medical textbooks and doctors state that human life begins at conception. Legally, abortion stops a beating heart and occurs after fetal brain waves, yet the fetus can become a non-person based on a mother's choice. Morally, arguments that the fetus is not a person due to lack of relationships are problematic, as personality is not what grants basic human rights.
This document discusses secular arguments against abortion from a scientific, legal, and moral perspective. It summarizes the views of medical textbooks and doctors that human life begins at conception. It then examines legal definitions of murder and arguments around the personhood of the fetus.

The author is trying to understand all sides of the complex issue but believes it is wrong to kill an unborn baby without allowing it a chance at life.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

5. ONLY 1% of all abortions occur because of rape or incest.
6% occur due to curable potential health problems.
93% of all abortions occur for social reasons
(the child is unwanted or inconvenient).
6. In the world there are…
*42 Million abortions per year.
*115,000 per day.
*1.3 per second.
7. 1 in 3 women will have an abortion by the age of 45.
8. The price of an
abortion can range
from several hundred
dollars to several thousand.
9. 31% of all abortions are paid for
with your tax dollars.
10. The dark red states are the most likely to ban abortion.
12. 1) Suction-aspiration
The surgeon inserts a hollow plastic tube with a
knife edge on the end of it into the woman. The
suction, 29 times more powerful than that of a
household vacuum, tears the baby into pieces.
The placenta is then cut and sucked out as well.
13. “There is no medical necessity, physical or mental, for aborticide. Convenience, yes;
real necessity, no.”
14. “The right of the unborn child to life must outweigh the desires of others to destroy
it, whatever the basis of these desires.”
15. “The liberalization of abortion laws now will ultimately lead to legalized extermination of
other humans, and will be another step in the decaying moral values of our current
society.”
16. 2) Dilatation & Curettage (D&C)
The surgeon inserts a steel, loop-shaped knife
into the woman, then cuts up the baby and
scrapes it out. Bleeding is excessive in this
procedure.
17. “When I see a pregnant woman, regardless of her circumstances, the first thing I recognize is
hope, because God is at work with her. I want to help her see that. The baby is not a
'mistake,'
even if her conduct was.”
18. “To say a child is unwanted says nothing about the child, but it says much about the person
who does not want his or her child.”
19. "Either life is always and in all circumstances sacred, or intrinsically of no account; it is
inconceivable that it should be in some cases the one, and in some the other."
20. 3) Saline Poisoning
*does not occur any more do to the harm to the mother. They
inject a concentrated salt solution into the amniotic fluid.
The baby breathes and swallows it and it is poisoned to the
point where dies. The poisoning process takes over an hour
to kill the baby and then the mother gives birth to a dead
baby. Done after the 16th week. Dehydration, hemorrhaging
of the brain, organ failure, and burned skin also contribute to
the fetus' demise.
21. "Fetal tissue' implants are not that much different from Nazi lamp shades made of Jewish
skin. Both intend to put by-products of murder to good use."
22. "In its heart, America knew that racial segregation was wrong. In its heart, America knows
that human life begins before birth."
24. 4) D&E or Dilatation & Evacuation:
Live dismemberment of the baby and piecemeal removal: A pliers-
like instrument is used because the baby’s bones are calcified, as is
the skull. There is no anesthetic for the baby. The abortionist
inserts the instrument, seizes a leg or other part of the body and,
with a twisting motion, and tears it from the baby’s body. This is
repeated again and again. The spine must be snapped, and the skull
crushed to remove them. The nurse’s job is to reassemble the body
parts to be sure that all are removed.
26. "America you are beautiful . . . and blessed . . . . The ultimate test of your greatness is the way
you treat every human being, but especially the weakest and most defenseless. If you want
equal justice for all and true freedom and lasting peace, then America, defend life."
27. "It is a poverty that a "child must die", So that you may live as you wish...”
28. 5) intracranial injections
At about 4 months, a needle is inserted through the mother’s
abdomen, into the chest and heart of one of the fetal babies
and a poison is injected to kill him or her. This is "pregnancy
reduction." It is done to reduce the number or to kill a
handicapped baby, if such is identified. If successful, the dead
baby’s body is absorbed.
29. "There are two victims in every abortion: a dead baby and a dead conscience."
30. “I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is "Abortion", because it is a war against the
child... A direct killing of the innocent child, "Murder" by the mother herself...”
31. “We must not be surprised when we hear of murders, killings, of wars, or of hatred...If a
mother can kill her own child, what is left but for us to kill each other?”
32. 6) partial birth abortion, also called "brain
suction" or "D&X" methods

33. “The product, abortion, is skillfully marketed and sold to the woman at the crisis time in her
life. She buys the product, finds it defective and wants to return it for a refund. But, it's too
late.”
34. “He who denies that human life begins with conception does not need to contend with religion,
but science. To deny this certainty of biology is not to express a lack of faith, but a lack of
basic knowledge of human genetics, something that is even known by the general public.”

proclaim that no one ever has the authority to destroy unborn life.”
36. 7) MEDICAL ABORTION (LIKE MIFEPRISTONE / RU-486
Medical abortions are a two-step procedure, generally requiring
three trips to an abortion facility, and can be performed on
embryos in the the first six or seven weeks of pregnancy. The
first step is taking the first pill to block the hormone
(progesterone) that maintains the uterus' nutrient lining during
pregnancy. Once the uterus is compromised, the embryo starves
and dies. Two days later, the woman returns to the abortion
facility for a dose of misoprostol to initiate uterine contractions.
Most women will expel the dead embryo within four hours of
taking the second drug.

Today's Herods use abortion.”
40. “Never tire of firmly speaking out in defense of life from its conception and do not
be deterred from the commitment to defend the dignity of every human person
with courageous determination.”
41. "The promotion of the culture of life should be the highest priority in our
societies...If the right to life is not defended decisively as a condition for all other
rights of the person, all other references to human rights remain deceitful and
illusory."
42. "What irony that a society confronted with plastic bags filled with the remains of aborted
babies should be more concerned about the problem of recycling the plastic."

the ban on partial birth
abortions.
45. Wisconsin treated the performance of an
abortion
as a crime from statehood until 1973, when
Section 940.04, Wisconsin Statutes, was
made
unenforceable under the 1973 decision by the
U.S. Supreme Court – Roe v. Wade.
46. Roe v. Wade
In the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, the Supreme Court ruled
that women, in consultation with their physician, have a
constitutionally protected right to have an abortion in the
early stages of pregnancy—that is, before the baby can
survive on its own outside the mother—free from
government interference.
47. 940.15
Wisconsin has prohibited intentional performance of an
abortion after the unborn child has reached viability
(the stage when the baby can survive on its own out of the
womb)
unless it is necessary to preserve
the mother’s life or health, as determined by her physician.
50. 20.927, 59.53, and 66.04
prohibit the state or local
governments from using public funds to pay for abortions,
unless the abortion is medically
necessary to prevent grave, long-lasting physical health
damage to the woman or to save her life.
51. 20.9275
prohibits specified state and local funding for
pregnancy programs, projects or services that: provide
abortion services; promote, encourage
or counsel in favor of abortion services; or make abortion
referrals when not directly and medically necessary to save
the life of the mother.
52. 48.375
prohibits
any person from performing an abortion on a minor without
consent of the minor’s parent,
legal guardian, legal custodian, or an adult family member who
is at least 25 years old.
53. 940.16
bans the
“partial-birth” abortion, a procedure typically performed late in
a pregnancy, unless the
woman’s life is endangered. A person who performs this type
of abortion may be found guilty
of a Class A felony punishable by life imprisonment.
54. 253.09
states that hospitals may not be required to perform abortions
and they
are not liable for civil damages or discrimination complaints for
refusal to do so.
