Poll: Most millennial women don't consider themselves feminists

A new Refinery 29-CBS News poll of women between 18 and 35 conducted in late July found less than a third, 28 percent, believe abortion should be legal in all cases. An additional 34 percent of women polled said it should be legal in most cases. Only 13 percent of millennial women believed abortion should be illegal in all cases. Another 25 percent said it should be illegal in most cases.

But while abortion is clearly the reigning top priority of the feminist movement, Refinery29 notes the poll found abortion “ranked surprisingly low on the list of priorities for all women.” Surprising to media denizens, perhaps. “While 69% of women agreed Roe v. Wade should remain the law of the land, less than half (45% for millennials, and 44% for all age groups) said they were concerned about restrictions to abortion access,” reported Refinery29 earlier this month.
