More Americans identify as pro-choice now than at any time in the last 25 years

And the trend is moving in the right direction. Notice the recent spike right after the Dobbs decision.

I have very mixed views (not typical conservative or liberal) but I was tending to lean more towards conservative ideas due to liberals really trampling on rights. Then I saw this in the US and I really couldn't believe that they had done this, I backed away from it. Anyway, thanks for the good news. I'd never personally have an abortion but I can't imagine telling any woman she HAS to have an unwanted baby. Another example of the war on women.

@Angelwarfare Out of curiosity, what "rights" of yours have been trampled on? I hear people say that but I'm not aware of any real life examples.
@Ynotisay Ah ok, well you wouldn't get it if you're a man, especially a liberal man.

@Angelwarfare Sure I'd get it. I'm not an idiot. I asked you a pretty simple question. If you can't answer it just say that. You don't know anything about me. But you saying "liberal man" tells me a lot about you. But again, just some examples would be appreciated. I've never heard one. Maybe you'd educate me.

@Angelwarfare OK. But I'm hopeful you know that has NOTHING to do with "rights." Nothing. Nor do the other things you mentioned. Nothing. So maybe what would be wise is to learn what rights REALLY are. They're not things you disagree with. You've lost exactly zero rights. So maybe that's not the line to run with in the future.
@Ynotisay A lockdown is losing a right to be in public, this is not rocket science.

@Angelwarfare No. It's a way of preventing the spread of a deadly disease, and if you don't want to be part of the solution to ending COVID, I would invite you to leave society.

@Angelwarfare What you just described isn't actually happening. It's always been illegal for men to assault women in traditionally female spaces. What you're seeing is a reduction in the oppression that trans people have endured until now. Your reaction is typical of conservatives, who often view loss of special privileges as oppression.
@Lila15 YES, it is actually is happening. Either you're ignorant of it or you're simply dishonest. Being in prison and being subjected to convicted sexual predators self-IDing as trans IS HAPPENING. If this is a conservative view, then conservatives are absolutely correct. It's not a special privilege to not get raped. Trans are the ones with special privileges, they are the only group with MORE rights than anyone else.

@Angelwarfare I thought you were talking about public restrooms. Rape happens in men's prisons all the time. We need major prison reform; violence in prison is just one aspect of the problem. We just have too many people incarcerated. One solution would be to put trans women in their own wing, like they do with cops and child molesters.

If you think trans people have more rights, explain why DeSantis is getting away with suppressing any discussion of them in schools.
Yes, rape is in male prisons too but women are easy prey for these convicted rapists (who easily overpower women's bodies with their male hands and many who have a penis to rape with). Many prisons have children in them too and convicted trans pedos gain access to the children in there.

As far as other women's spaces, there have been quite a few convicted sexual assault cases by trans in those spaces as well.

I absolutely know trans have more rights than others and I don't think I have that much control over what DeSantis does but I'm very happy to see him protecting women. It's sad that so many fall into the trap of not protecting women for fear of not being politically correct.

@Angelwarfare I see you have provided exactly 0% of the evidence you claim to have.
@Angelwarfare Can you please provide evidence of men in women's prisons and children in adult prisons? Because in the United States, they're kept separate. Maybe you're in a different country where they're all mixed together? Or you're just repeating nonsense you heard on Tucker Carlson?
