The Pro-Life group calls Pro-Choice advocates "pro-abortion." Should Pro-Life be called the "Anti-Woman" group? Ask a Question

Anti choice maybe?

Means what it says "Pro-Life". For life, not the death of a baby.

Pro-choice ALWAYS refers to a woman desiring to kill the living being within her.

No, it does not. It ALWAYS refers to a woman having that option. It does not ALWAYS refer to her desiring to exercise it.

If you don't like the term "pro-life" perhaps you should call them "pro-child" or "anti-murder".

It wasn't so much disliking the term "Pro-life" - although dauguy makes a valid point in saying that if anti-abortion advocates are also pro-death penalty then they are not TRULY Pro-Life.

The point is this - I don't know anyone who is pro-choice who likes the idea of abortion. Pro-Choice is exactly what it says: allowing women to have all options open to her. Whichever method of birth control she desires, and if the birth control method fails (all of them have a much higher failure rate than manufacturers will admit) then having the option of carrying the baby to term, keeping and raising it herself, placing the baby for adoption (through an agency or choosing the adoptive parents herself) or having a safe, medical abortion.

The Pro-Life group has chosen to rename the Pro-Choice group for political reasons to make those who are Pro-Choice SOUND vicious and callous.

So the question was trying to find an equally callous and vicious name for the "Pro-Life" crowd. They are the ones trying to assert their religious beliefs on every woman - to the point of taking away the most common and accepted means of birth control on the market, and restricting access to birth control methods (like RU-486 and the Morning After Pill) that are widely accepted in other westernized countries.

Anti-Women's-rights" is close to being perfect, but it's too much of a mouthful. Got another one?

How about Fetuses First, or Post-Birth Death Penalty Fans, PBDPGs for short?

You know - I like the "Fetuses First" thing. That pretty much says it.

Why would we want a government that would tell us we have to have a baby, or cannot end our own life? It is not the governments business is it?

It shouldn't be. It's the reason we fought for independence in the first place. For individual liberty. And once again - we see the few trying to inflict their 'opinion' on the actions of everyone.

NO, because one childish act doesn't warrant another in retaliation.

It's not a childish act. It's a political maneuver.

The Pro-Life group is mistaken.

Discrimination against women is still worldwide and most discrimination comes from other women.

The truth is that "Pro-Choice" people are really "Pro-Let's-Kill-Babies-In-The-Name-Of-Political-Agenda" Everyone has to know in their heart it's wrong to murder people. No matter what you want to call it, abortion is sick, selfish, and wrong!
