Although I make the start of a rational and mature argument, Thomson would respond in the following way. She acknowledges that her argument can be found unsatisfactory “ First, while I do argue that abortion is not impermissible, I do not argue that it is always permissible” (Thomson, J. Judith). Thomson agrees that if the minimal requirement is to carry the fetus to term then the minimally decent mother shall not fall below. There are certain circumstances that she deems abortion to be impermissible. I agree with her early statement that this is a, “ Slippery slope argument”.
