Conservative men are paving the way for anti-abortion policies across the country
Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, anti-abortion activists are rallying even more for stricter policies against abortion. While these “pro-life” individuals are spread across the country and range in their description, one trend seems to be common—they are mostly men. For generations, men seem to be making the decisions regarding the reproductive health of all individuals, with abortion being no exception.
Despite several conservatives making headlines for their lack of understanding of reproductive health yet wanting a say in policies impacted by it, two have recently garnered exceptional attention. According to CNN, a businessman turned state representative from Louisiana, alongside a Baptist pastor, have been adamant that a person who receives an abortion should receive the same treatment as one who kills a live infant.
