      Nooo. This is an extremist view. Conservatives do not trivialise rape but most people who do are far-right.

      Abortion generally. That is a serious ethical problem, yes. Do they try to reduce sentences for rape?

      They've demanded rape victims get permission from the rapist father for an abortion. They've cut funding for rape kits. One of the massive issues with the first (very first) draft of 'trumpcare' was denial of coverage for victims of assault-including sexual assault

      That is awful. Is the last bit right. I thought that was a misrepresentation? But I'm not denying that rape-apologism comes from the right.

      No it's true. Naturally, they tried to fudge it as a generic cut. Which is also bad, but even worse for rape victims. Conservatives are the dregs of society as far as women go.

      This is different from the rape as a pre-existing condition claim? Not conservatives, no. Some extreme versions of it - US particularly bad

      This was related to PTSD as a result of a crime needn't be covered. Yeah US conservatives - but IMO - the entire cabal is pretty shitty as far as women go. But that's just my opinion.

      Well, yes, a lot of them are women, of course, and conservative feminism exists & the belief in equal rights is held by the majority.

      Women being against women's interests due to religion or brainwashing is hardly new. It's pretty standard. The fact that they're women doesn't mean they aren't harmful to women's interests.

          Very true :) I just don't see that there being 'conservative' women is a point to make that they're not against women's interests. It's like women voting for Trump. Which is just.. words fail me.

          Well, they're for their own interests as women which are different to the interests we might have as women.

          They think women are better served by a different set of values to liberal ones. It's not that they hate themselves & their whole sex.

          They'd say liberal women act against women's interests.

          Again, of course, you're right that some could have the views you say-my previous reply should have been 'a significant part'. Then again, its my personal opinion that conservatives en masse are a danger to women, in my perspective.

          Even if they have views against gender equality & reproductive freedom etc, they still think they're on women's side.

          They think that liberalism is a danger to women, that's it made them unhappy, that it will endanger them with immigration decisions etc

          Like you, I think they're wrong. I think a centre-leftie liberalism gets the balance right but centre-right is quite good too.
