Doesn’t matter. If you take those numbers, let’s say 4 out of 10 men are against abortion, so you put them in a pile.
Then you take 3 out of 10 women against abortion and you put them in the same pile.
So now you have a pile with 4 men and 3 women who are against abortion. Which would mean 4/7 people who are against abortion are men. Which is 57%. Not 79% at all.
Either way. What’s the source. Should always source your statistics.
Your point is probably still generally correct because the percentage of men and women in the population is close to 50% each but in general the argument doesn’t work unless you have equal numbers of both in the population.

82% of statistics are made up on the spot. Everyone knows that.
69% of the time, it works every time
