Regardless if it's different in America, the number which support or against are roughly the same cross both men and female, so again why would it be sexist mentality?? 

I never claimed that it was sexist (you can read my other replies), just that your info was inaccurate. Statistically, a deviation of 18.5% in the ratios between men and women (1.55 vs 1.30) is not insignificant. Also, some women being in support of abortion does not exclude it from being sexist. Women's suffrage did not see wide support from either sex before the 20th Century, in the US.

I never claimed you thought it was. It is insignificant by the article you linked it's a 4% difference between the genders, not sure how you would ever claim that was a wide margin.  It most certainly does excluded it from being sexist, unless you want to argue that women are too dumb/weak to decide for them self and are controlled by the male vote.
