Talk:Forced Sterilization of People with Disabilities in North America

Hi! Great job on explaining some of the terms that may be unfamiliar to readers. An aspect that could be changed would perhaps be the first sentence of your definition of sterilization. Although this type of sentence may be helpful to have in an essay, it does not serve its purpose in increasing readers' understanding on what this word means. I think that this is an incredibly interesting topic that could be a shocking and enlightening read. Good luck and good job so far!

Hi, I think you are off to a great start on a fantastic topic! I think that it is very apparent that forced sterilization of people with disabilities is inherently wrong. However, the notions that this stems from - which relates to eugenics - is not so straightforward. I see that you have included a section on personhood. Personhood is a very complicated topic that philosophers are still in disagreement about to this very day! Nonetheless, I think that it is an important stepping-stone in exploring the reproductive rights of people with disabilities. I look forward to seeing how this article develops! In your outcomes section, I think it would be really interesting to see an intersectional analysis on how society attempts to morally justify the sterilization of disabled people.
