You can be pro-choice and be a conservative. The divisions between conservative, progressive, etc. are not well-defined, strong boundaries but ideologies. In general if you profess a majority of political opinions that are opposed to your country’s/locale’s conservative policies then it might be hard for you to justify it. But there are pro-choice American Republicans. There are pro-LGBT American Republicans. There are even pro-democracy American Republicans (a shocker, I know).
But I’m contending that American Libertarians (as in the party, not the very vague ideological notion) are Conservatives and very close to American Republicans. They share, in effect if not in stated policy, the same stances as Republicans based on their support for bills and politicians. They are essentially just a slight white-washed versions of Republicans.
A person can be a pro-choice conservative. But if you’re pro choice, pro lgbt, want to legalize all drugs, and didn’t vote for Donald Trump, you’re not a Republican.
Same thing but libertarians are too embarrassed to call themselves conservatives. Or too stupid.
But I’m not a Conservative. I’m pro choice

You’re not really in line with American Libertarians, either, Libertarian party is more than just “legal drugs”.
It’s plenty in line with the likes of Gary Johnson, or Jo Jorgersen, as in the last two nominees of the Libertarian party
