These people WANT sex to have consequences. They hate the idea that some people might get enjoyment from being sexually active.

If contraception was so freely available, maybe there would be less examples of parents suddenly killing their kids. Some people really shouldn't be parents, and forcing them to have babies doesn't mean they are going to grow up in a loving family.

What I don't understand about pro-lifers is their level of magical thinking. They think outlawing abortion will make it disappear. It won't. It just goes underground and then women die from back alley abortions.

I mean, technically I am pro-life. I am not comfortable with abortion and would not have one myself. But I vote pro-choice because I don't think illegalizing abortion will make it go away. I don't think anything will ever make it 100% go away as there will always be cases where it may be medically impossible to save the mother without aborting a fetus. But I do think we can massively reduce the numbers with free birth control, increased funding for research of male birth control, and comprehensive sexual education for all school kids.

If your really pro-life then the end goal shouldn't be demanding that women who don't want to keep a pregnancy be forced too. The end goal should be working to make it possible for women who don't want to have a baby to not get pregnant in the first place. Reliable and available eduction and birth control will help far far more than any restrictive legislation.
