Most states have restrictive conditions attached to the legality of abortions in their states

In theory yes. In practice not so much.

I'm damn well sure those conditions weren't attached by women.

Women are slightly more likely to be pro-life than men are.

Don't know whether you've noticed, but most Pro-life activists are men.

If by most you mean 50.01% or more, than maybe. If you mean a strong majority than no, that isn't the case.

Also I was talking about the decision made at the time of the potential abortion, not the legal decisions. Note - I said "doesn't get to decide according to current law"

"Don't know whether you've noticed, but most Pro-life activists are men. "

Do you have evidence of that?

I have not noticed that. I have noticed that most abortion activists are women, single women, with some men (who admit its an easy way to get laid) tagging along. The few men who show up as activists usually have other radical left issues that they dove tail into their activist activities, abortion being one of many.

I have noticed that Pro-life spokespersons who are men, are usually married men and their wives are nearly always in agreement.
