The problem that I have is that when I hear the words "pro-life", my immediate association is a person that believes no woman should have an abortion EVER PERIOD END OF STORY. And no, I do not believe you can truly be a feminist and have that attitude.
However, if the person is question means pro-life as in, "I will never have an abortion because I think it's wrong, but I respect your choice to have one," then they can absolutely be a feminist and, by their definition, pro-life.
