Only women should have a say in the abortion debate simply because they are women.

Why is that so dumb? The pro-choice position is all about a woman's right to choose.

In the US at least, women are no more likely to be pro-choice than men, and actually less likely per some polls. It might be true that pro-choice women tend to be more passionate about the issue than pro-choice men, but numerically gender makes little difference on one's position.

If 100% of women were pro-life and 100% of men were pro choice, wouldn't that make for an interesting dilemma?
