Thing is, which way would I want to do it? Talk about males running anti-choice campaigns in a pro-choice speech or talk about male privilege affecting the dialogue of even anti-choice rallies.

How about in regards to the anti-choice movement being a backlash against the feminist movement? In Susan Faludi's
Backlash she has a chapter on that and talks a lot particularly about Operation Rescue (the founder was actually raised by his pro-choice feminist aunts. Makes me afraid to have kids, this is how they'd rebel against me.) There's several academic sources about how the evangelicals got into it for the same reason, before the eighties they viewed abortion as a Catholic problem, but then felt demoralized by the gains of feminism (such as no-fault divorce) and was seduced by the right.
