We're also the ones that carry the guilt.

Not so much guilt. Look at what pro-lifers are saying. They think of embryos as 'babies.' And this is stronger in those who have had babies and thought of them as 'babies' since they knew they were there.

Oh! I think you might be remembering my argument that signing away your responsibility to a fetus cannot be considered comparable to aborting one because the latter often has a profound emotional cost. The fetus dies in the latter case. Can result in guilt & grief.

But I don't think that's the main reason women are so much more likely to be pro-life. Legality/illegality of abortion unlikely to add or subtract from feelings of guilt if they exist. I think that's about having grown an embryo inside you that you thought of as a baby.
