8) And as abortion has become a partisan issue (if anything, Democrats were slightly more pro-life at the time of Roe, though that term was not yet invented), women have politically polarized in their attitudes even more quickly than men. [Differences by gender and party ID]
7) More religious Americans are MUCH more supportive of abortion access/legalization than those who are less religious (though the gender divide is not particularly notable here). [This chart shows differences by gender and highest/lowest levels of religious attendance]
6) Highly educated Americans are MUCH more supportive of legal/accessible abortion than the less educated, and this divide is considerably bigger among women than among men. [This chart shows differences by gender and highest/lowest levels of education]
2) The biggest divide when it comes to abortion attitudes has always been that women care much more about the issue than men. [This chart shows the relative importance ratings of the issue by women and men over time.]
1) By and large, the gender divide on abortion attitudes has always been small, with women only coming to support abortion more than men relatively recently. [This chart shows the relative attitudes of women and men on the issue over time.]
