Normally I'm a lot less in to polls then other people. Reality isn't determined by popularity. But you made a specific assertion about the opinions and views of men and women. When the question of who holds what opinion, then polls,while imperfect are often the best information we have.

The specific assertion you made was that the majority of pro-life people are men.That specific assertion is rather questionable, and is very questionable in terms of being strongly pro-life. The evidence is that women are more likely to be strongly pro-life then men. (To be fair, and as I already pointed out, they are also more likely to be strongly pro-choice).

I selected that poll series, even though the most recent was a few years old, precisely because it showed a steady trend over time.

Your more recent polls aren't relevant to the assertion that you made and I questioned.
