Think of it this way: I want you to read Judith Jarvis Thomson’s piece very carefully. Then I want you to be able to explain the steps she takes to making her argument and then explain what she thinks that means (she makes an argument about when abortion is permissible and when it is not, so that has implications for what she thinks we ought to do as a society on this question), and then explain what you think of what she’s saying. Consider the idea of a three-part outline to your paper, as follows:
1. What she’s saying
2. What that means for our laws and our culture
3. Your analysis of her views: has she got it right? Why or why not?
