What do you mean by women’s rights? The difference in support for abortion by sex is trivial. https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/fact-sheet/public-opini...

Probably not abortion. While rights never happen in a vacuum, it is usually framed as a matter of fetus rights.

How about a woman's right to equal employment opportunity? 67% of women are in favour of DEI, while most men (57%) take the opposing view. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/poll-american...

The primary political parties are definitely catering to those sides.

Seeing a 3 point difference in the support for abortion between men and women is *wild* to me.

  • Rest assured: Those 33% of women who say abortion should be "Illegal in all/most cases," would instantly carve out an exception for themselves if their own lives or livelihoods were in jeopardy from a pregnancy.
