Considering Types

In this blog post, I will be considering different types of arguments that may be applicable to my piece. I have chosen to look into position arguments, evaluative arguments, and refutation arguments.

Position Arguments

Position arguments would allow me to pick a side, but not argue for it. This might be less than ideal because it would be a very short article with little to no analysis.

"The Argument" by Shelly

Evaluative Arguments

Similar to a position argument, I would choose to argue for the cause. I would write an article full of in-depth analysis and support for my reasoning. This type of argument also fits my possible genre of "magazine article" most closely.

Refutation Arguments

This argument is the opposite of the evaluative argument. The only issue I have with this argument is personal; I'd rather write a support of reproductive technology instead of a critique.
