prolife
Opposes ending pregnancies
Prolife (also pro-life) describes opposition to abortion, typically on moral or religious grounds holding that human life begins at conception.
The term frames the position favorably—who would be against life?
Those who disagree prefer "anti-abortion" or "anti-choice." Prolife advocates may also oppose euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, or capital punishment, though the abortion stance dominates: She's been prolife since her Catholic upbringing.
