I'd agree, but for the thought that American women weren't likely to go back either, having fought so hard for so long - but there they are, up the well known creek, if only temporarily.
This kind of stuff so beloved of the conservative right is at its heart, extremely nasty & sadly there's no shortage of women who tend towards misogyny to help them push the message.
Coincidentally, I'm presently reading a collection of sci fi short stories; A people's future of the United states, edited by Victor La Valle & John Joseph Adams. Excellent reading but some are terrifying.
