What’s verifiably false in this identity politics play is the contention that all women disagree with Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion, writes TPCarney.
Overturning Roe, said my co-host Jill Filipovic last week on the podcast Left, Right, and Center, would be “terrible for women and people who care about women ...”This sort of name-calling and identity-politicking is typical, but it's also a non sequitur. If you venture into a pro-life crisis pregnancy center, you will find it staffed entirely by women. The pro-lifers I know are explicitly motivated by seeking the good of women.
The latest YouGov poll, for instance, asked, “Do you think a woman’s right to have an abortion is established by the Constitution?” That is precisely the question before the Supreme Court. Only 34% of men said yes, along with 35% of women. No statistically significant gender gap. The specific law the court is deciding on is Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban. Most women support a 15-week abortion ban, and there is no real difference between the sexes on this question.
