There seems to be this idea that women are pretty much all pro-choice, and it's just the evil (rich/white/right wing) men who are trying to control their bodies. (Even though there is no political movement I'm aware of to discourage women from getting breast implants, IUDs, tattoos, dye their hair, etc, etc, etc, the only time people want to control womens' bodies is when there might well be a baby inside of it.)
In truth, polls indicate that opinions on abortion are pretty much 50/50 for both genders, and there are quite a few left wingers who are pro-life and there are quite a few right wingers who are pro choice. Not to mention, once you start to get into the specifics of when abortion ought to have more restrictions, many have a slightly different opinion.
