My question regards freedom of choice basically. We'll all have opinions of these three subjects, but regardless of how we feel about them shouldn't the individuals concerned be allowed to make the choice for themselves?
Firstly abortion, it's not a nice subject and if I was ever unlucky enough to be in that situation (which I won't be) I don't think I could go through with it, but other women surely should have the unrestricted freedom to decide what happens with their own bodies?
Secondly circumcision, why is it that male babies are circumcised at an age where they can't decide for themselves if they want that to be done to them? Religion aside, is it not up to the individual to choose to be circumcised?
Finally euthanasia, in a society where we can legally choose when to end our pets' lives why are we still unable to decide when to end our own if we're terminally ill and suffering?
