Kinda like claiming pro-lifers are "waging war on women"?

That is one example sure.

But i've never said that. I don't know anyone personal who has said that. I don't associate with people who might have said that.

That statement stinks of Fox "news".

“I think the ‘war on women’ is real,” Biden told MSNBC’s “The Ed Show,” deploying the politically-charged phrase for the first time on the national stage.

The War on Women is a political catchphrase used in United States politics to describe Republican Party initiatives in federal and state legislatures that are seen as restricting women's rights, especially with regard to reproductive rights.[1][2][3][4] The phrase is often used by feminists or liberals when attacking or criticizing conservative positions,[5][6][7] often targeting policies that reduce or eliminate taxpayer funding for women's health organizations that perform abortions, like Planned Parenthood.[8] The term is used to describe legislative initiatives that are argued to negatively affect: access to abortion services; how violence against women is prosecuted; how workplace discrimination against women is treated; and litigation concerning equal pay for women.[9][10][11][12] Other issues revolve around public funding and mandatory employer insurance coverage of such areas as contraception and sterilization.

I don't think ''war on women' is fair to use against pro-lifers indiscriminately, but there is a specific subsection of them that can be seen in this manner; ex Legitimate Rape guy.

IOW if you disagree with us on when human life begins you're engaged in a war on all women.

Well, to some of them you are, just like if you think that rape victims shouldn't have to carry the result to term, you're literally a baby killer to some pro-lifers. When those are the two sides, it's sort of hard to expect reasoned debate.
