LGBTQ folks who oppose abortion can submit their own interview answers here.

to be queer and pro-life at the same time

I feel like I don’t belong in anyone’s group

It’s scary

I’m lucky to have found a group of other LGBTQ+ pro-life friends

I would be shunned and unfollowed

I would be ousted from the one group that’s promised to accept me

Especially when it comes to human life.

Only after establishing I’m not a woman hater do I ask them to consider my pro-life position

It can feel quite isolating

I just listen

I just listen

I’ve never known such a diverse and caring movement before

It can be tough to be anti-abortion in LGBTQ+ spaces

blatantly discriminatory

at times it’s wonderful, other times it’s painful

it’s just common sense

it is important to recognize respect of life

pressure to be pro-choice out of guilt

all life is dignified and worthy

that could be frustrating at times

they quickly become angry and shut the conversation down

focus on science and point out common ground beliefs

there are a lot of pro-lifers hiding in plain site

It’s very frustrating

I’ve seen so little exclusion in the community

That women deserve better

It’s difficult

create an instant friendship

it’s an uphill battle

I feel amazing

I don’t really go to pro-life spaces/ events in person

I feel like I threaten people

feeding the steroetype

speaking up and using their voices

I would love to have more opportunities to network

I don’t feel excluded as much

tend to minimize LGBTQ people

I generally feel welcomed but not accepted

The pro-life movement is pretty accessible to me

It’s hard

The pro-life community can be somewhat hostile to me

non-existent

common ground for folks on both sides

I have safe spaces to go to

I would probably not be a pro-life activist

refuse to work with me because I am bisexual

breaking down the partisan stereotypes

I think it’s pretty accessible

I intentionally don’t talk about it

It’s an interesting parallel

we could be aborted next

It’s a lonely experience

I feel like I have to hide

I feel very isolated

Selective abortion

dehumanizing one group of people opens to door to others

It is disheartening.

It can get lonely

afraid for my physical safety

No one listens

I get told I hate women which is hurtful
