In On The Moral and Legal Status of Abortion, author Mary Warren defends abortion on the grounds that fetuses are not persons and therefore have no moral rights. Warren defines personhood, the quality necessary to hold full moral rights, in five characteristics: (1) consciousness and the capacity to feel pain, (2) reasoning (developed problem solving), (3) self-motivated activity (4) the capacity to communicate and (5) the presence of self-concepts, and self-awareness. (Warren 55). Warren then further explains that while a person does not need to hold all, or any specific characteristic of the five, any being that does not hold any of the characteristics is certainly not a person (such as a fetus). While one may agree with Warren that the characteristics defined above may accurately describe a person, the ambiguous and unquantifiable nature of the characteristics may make them impossible to use in a legal sense and therefore irrelevant to the legality of abortion.
