Pro-life people don't see the debate that way. If they did, they would likely agree with you, but to them they view it is as protecting the life of an innocent unborn child.
You can't just keep saying "it is a reproductive rights issue" and make it so.
I would argue it's both, and we as a society have determined that a women's reproductive rights are more important than an unborn child's.
I hope you can also appreciate that while a person may have a moral issue with abortion (i.e. I may personally find it offensive), I can believe that legally it should be up to a woman. This does not make me a misogynist.

You're right. It doesnt make you a misogynist. Same with Tim Kaine, he personally doesnt believe in abortions cos of his religious views, but via policy he supports the right for women to choose.
You cannot, in good conscience, argue that Mike Pence stands for the same thing??? Mike Pence is misogynistic.
Also wittynickname has put forth, if people were really worried about rights of an 'unborn child' then make services easier to attain for working women... day care, living wage, etc. Dont say "save the unborn child" while simultaneously making it harder for women to raise said child.
