Thanks for the interesting points. I only dabble with feminist analysis, so I'm not going to be able to offer any in-depth reply to your post. I've therefore chosen the above quote to discuss.

The worrying aspect is that studies have shown that, compared to the pro-choice position, the pro-lifers are much more likely to finance political lobbying. Given the continued desire to maintain the male domination of the family (and therefore impotence of the male), these lobbying differences are a big concern. The pro-life voice is exaggerated and genuinely threatens our society to that "chain them once again to the kitchen sink" backward scenario.
