Many people assume that most women are pro-choice and that the pro-life movement is made up mostly of men. Nothing could be further from the truth – women outnumber men among pro-life activists and leaders, and polls often show higher levels of support for legalized abortion among men than among women. For example:
“In June 2000, an analysis of polling results by Alissa Rubin of the Los Angeles times concluded that “72% of women support a ban on all abortions after the first trimester of pregnancy, compared to only 58% of men.”
