I agree with using the "twin euphemisms", but I see many relatively non-stident people who don't. I think either the "twin euphemisms" should be used, or both sides should get nutral terms. I accept "anti-abortion" as neutral enough, but than what would the counterpart be? "Pro-abortion" is tilted against the pro-choice side, while "pro-abortion rights" is IMO tilted for the pro-choice side. Absent a good neutral term for the pro-choice side its probably best to stick to "pro-life" and "pro-choice to describe the two choices.
