I say that abortion is wrong in the scope of late term abortions even though I believe that 1-2 months should be the cutoff date for an abortion yet I would be classed as an anti abortion proponent. Is there no middle ground or is that so hard to agree with. PP does not distinguish and neither do politicians that say they are pro abortion or as the term is morphing into a pro women's movement.
I haven't heard anyone say that someone who supports abortion up to 8 weeks is an "anti-abortionist". That would be contradictory.
And, I've certainly never seen pro-choice (or pro-abortion) used synonymously with "pro women's movement"; women's rights and issues extend far beyond reproduction, and the vast majority of women never have an abortion.
When I say "anti-abortionist" I mean "anti-abortionist". The politicians and groups whom I described as "anti-abortionists" do, in fact, oppose oppose ALL abortions because they consider it morally and/or religiously wrong and equate abortion at any stage to murder.
You, my friend, are simply a guy who supports a woman's right to choose up to a certain point, like Duchess, and sal, and user and a whole lot of other people that I know.
