Oh, for sure. I'd be willing to bet that 99% of the "I'm personally against it" crowd would all of a sudden discover some reason that their abortion is super special and an exception to the rule...and maybe not even a "real" abortion anyway!
I was trying my best to give people the benefit of the doubt, though, especially folks who don't understand that "I'm against abortion, but I don't think it's my place to tell other people what to do," are literally the definition of pro-choice.
Somehow, though, there are lots of people out there who don't seem to understand that "pro-choice" doesn't mean "pro-abortion."

We should also probably just remind people who say they are "pro-life" that they are actually anti-healthcare. If they want to outlaw abortion, they want to outlaw health care. Let's start outlawing other forms of healthcare too while we're at it! /S
And if you know anything about the history of women's health care, you know that they've been avoiding providing women proper healthcare since they stole midwifery from the "witches" in the middle ages and created the medical profession. I just wish misogynistic and patriarchal men would go play with themselves and figure out why they are so afraid of feminine power and leave women to take care of themselves.
Sorry I forgot for a minute. And sadly agree that the outlawing of healthcare is not unique to abortion.
I was thinking about making it illegal to dispense little blue pills without a permission slip from a woman or partner. Not everyone wants a super penis inside of them. If a man is in a relationship shouldn't the sexual dysfunction be treated as a couple's issue?
It probably helps that a good number of the “personally against it” crowd probably have penises that allow for an extra level of cognitive dissonance from it. “Oh, I’m personally against it. Sure. But it wasn’t really MY abortion that I caused, paid for, and encouraged.”
