antichoice
Opposing reproductive freedom
Antichoice describes opposition to abortion rights, framing that position as restricting women's choices about pregnancy.
The term is used by abortion-rights supporters as a counterpoint to "pro-life": antichoice legislation, antichoice activists.
Those so labeled typically reject the term, preferring "pro-life."
