They want women to be subordinate in all ways. Women are supposed to be servants to the handful of men who will run everything.

Women are not supposed to have access to contraception because that allows women to make up their own minds about whether or not they want to have children. Women are not supposed to have access to abortion for the same reason. Women are not supposed to have important jobs, such as flying airplanes, according to current Republican frontrunner Santorum.

Even if a woman will die unless she has an emergency abortion, she should not be allowed to have one. That gives women the right to decide to live, and that right is not allowed to women. The handful of powerful men who run things will decide whether or not individual women will live or die. Rick Santorum, for instance, decided that it was ok for his wife to have an emergency late-term abortion to save her life.
