Please check out the Vox article linked by the other poster. I want to preface with saying I’m pro choice. But are you really going to argue the 5 men and 1 woman that vote to affirm Dobbs is representative of the nation? People (including me) have been complaining about how the court hasn’t had a majority blue nomination since the 50s even though the political pendulum has swung multiple times since then. And grouping every male into the ruling .01% is not a good faith argument.

Those 5 mens' and 1 woman's actions would be moot if the conservative states upheld abortion rights. But we all know that when finally given the choice, those states, with representatives run on anti-abortion platforms by popularity, took away those womens' rights. There were tens of millions of men in the South and Idaho involved in those decisions.

And when it was left to voters in Kansas the state voted 60-40 in favor of keeping abortion access. I can’t find a percentage breakdown of male pro and female pro but as a resident man it makes me sad to see people blame solely men for this. Yes they vote in favor of it more than women but religious women, especially ones with kids but postmenopause, seem to be in favor of restricting abortion access. It’s not accurate to act like this is just men when polling shows there are plenty of women in favor of it.
