According to self-identified “pro-life” advocates, the fundamental divide between those who want to outlaw abortion and those who want to keep it legal comes down to one question: when does life begin? Anti-abortion advocacy pushes the view that life begins at conception; the name of their movement carefully centers the conceit that opposition to abortion rights is simply about wanting to save human lives.
A new poll shows that’s a lie. The “pro-life” movement is fundamentally about misogyny.
A Supermajority/PerryUndem survey released this week divides respondents by their position on abortion, and then tracks their answers to 10 questions on gender equality more generally. On every question, anti-abortion voters were significantly more hostile to gender equity than pro-choice voters.
Do men make better political leaders than women? More than half of anti-abortion voters agreed. Do you want there to be equal numbers of men and women in positions of power in America? Fewer than half of abortion opponents said yes – compared with 80% of pro-choicers, who said they want women to share in power equally.
Anti-abortion voters don’t like the #MeToo movement. They don’t think the lack of women in positions of power impacts women’s equality. They don’t think access to birth control impacts women’s equality. They don’t think the way women are treated in society is an important issue in the 2020 election.
n other words, they don’t believe sexism is a problem, and they’re hostile to women’s rights. Pro-lifers are sexists in denial – yes, the women too.

One of the worst push polls in the history of push polls. You have to dig deep to find the methodology...and it’s all leftist from the sampling and the questions asked
When the kids leave home and the dog dies.
Pro abort pausing as pro choicers are the ones who want to control women at abort clinic. They want them to be whores without kids, controled like by a pimp.
Another fake poll.
How about not allowing one gender to commit legal murder?
Yeah, that’s it.
Pro-lifers are totally about controlling women.
Because we’re convinced women are too weak & stupid to control themselves. /s
Controlling women is such an oxymoron.
Whereas Lieberals just want to control EVERYONE.
Based on your scientific expertise, Jill, how many human sexes are there?
This is a standard leftist technique: wrongly saying A causes B, when they are unrelated. Always realize that leftists do not deal with facts or truth, but only emotions and feelings. Any statement from a leftist should assumed to be false. These are the flunkies who were well into the bottom half of the high school class.
Total BS.
No she’s wrong, I don’t want to control women. I just want to jail women who solicit for the murder of their children. I want them to be jailed just like the murderers or go in with what liberals call assault weapons and murder people. Murdering your child is the same as murder again adult.
So pro life women want to be controlled? My husband wants to know when this will begin.
