Surely it can be stipulated that she'd repeal a woman's right to choose if she could, since she's freely admitted that. If you take away a woman's right to choose, don't you think that it would begin a backwards spiral?
Keep women in their place. Barefoot and pregnant, taking care of their man, reliant on their man. She thinks she has it all, but hasn't stopped to think about the repercussions of forcing her "good Christian" mindset on the rest of us. It's scary enough that there are men in power that would love nothing better than to take us back where we were 40+ years ago, and as someone who grew up watching women fight for my rights, I find her attitude appalling. I can respect her choices, but the fact that she has no tolerance for mine is extremely scary.
Equal pay. Voting. Respect. Once choice is gone, it's not much of a leap to see that the push would be on for the rest to fall in line.
