In the US, 43.8% are consistently "pro-choice", 14.8% are consistently "pro-life" while others have context-dependent views. Age, religiosity, and conservatism correlate negatively with abortion support. The strongest predictor of anti-abortion views is sexism and belief in traditional gender-roles.

I don't agree with this perspective at all. But if you believe in an objective truth, then you can state that "truth" and not be sexist. I THINK I agree with that premise I'm not convinced though? BUT the upshot of this is that conservative Christians tend to believe in traditional gender roles. It's called complimentarianism. Women compliment men and vice versa, and typically subservience is believed to be the female role.

If you believe that God objectively created man and woman in that way and you genuinely believe that's an irrefutable truth, then you aren't going to consider it sexist.

It sounds ridiculous typing it out - because I think it's an abhorrent belief which is sexist.

But as an example... Is it sexist to say women are on average typically physically weaker than men? I wouldn't say so - because we have demonstrable data and evidence to back up that claim.
