Streszczenie
This article presents the results of the analysis of media discourse around the issue of
abortion, women's speech as presented on the pages of the discussion forum ABORTION,
functioning on the web portal www.gazeta.pl. The primary objective of this study is to diagnose
the causes of abortion decision-making by the participants of this forum. Verbalized positioned
determinants of abortion in the context of considerations of a moral (right to life, consequentialism
and deontological ethics). Assumptions consequentialism and deontological ethics – as an ethical
context for women's right to carry out abortions – were assigned to two, opposed in public
discourse in Poland standpoints: the defenders of life – pro-life groups representing the
deontological approach to the issue of abortion, and the defenders of free pro-choice groups
(consequentialism). After this analysis we can say that in public discourse on the issue of abortion
in the analyzed online forum made it clear in the context of ethical considerations, including the
nature of both topics consequential and deontological, and above all stressed the basic idea of
ethics of rights – the question of the right of the unborn child to life and the scope of this right.
