Did you read the linked piece?

Just as the term "pro life" necessarily and implicitly casts those who think a woman should be able to control her own reproductive system as "anti life", people who think porn and prostitution are feminist choices to choose cast everyone who disagrees as "sex negative", which is pure, unadulterated BS.

In the context of political activism, pro life is not pro life, its anti choice.

Similarly, sex positivity is not sex positivity, its usually used to mean some combination of pro porn, pro sexual objectification, and pro prostitution.
