Anyway, if it's not men trying to control women I guess it's men over represented in politics, or men over representing conservatives, or old people, or idiots or poor people. Maybe a nice mishmash of all the above.

Im trying to find what polling data I was seeing when I said marginally more women.
https://news.gallup.com/poll/245618/...0by%2520Gender
I suspect it was support some form of the should abortion be illegal in all circumstances question rather than the pro-life or pro-choice question. As looking at the chart 81% of Men believe abortion should be legal in some form compared to 77% of women. But on the general questions the correct statement would have been marginally more men support pro-birth.
What I don’t understand is how you take that data and then say it’s men oppressing women.
I would agree that that the reason you see a gender disparity in in the people voting to ban abortion is that the party voting for it has a large gender disparity among its representatives.
Where republican women have had the opportunity to vote against abortion they have.
