Abstract
In "The Feminist Case Against Abortion," Foster redefines the ideograph of choice in a way that is both pro-woman and pro-life. She supports her definition with genetic and analogical arguments from the past. Her focus on choice makes her speech a unique voice in the larger abortion debate and avoids the stalemate caused by opposing sides that function under totally different value systems.
