I don't usually get heated about political things but this is just nuts. Women were liberated from reliance on their husbands and entrapment in unhappy and abusive marriages largely in part due to birth control availability. They were able to get into the work force since weren't viewed as flaming loaded guns any more, ready to pop out a baby and be a pain in the butt at least once a year... Working moms still get discriminated agianst in some areas by employers. Attacking unwanted pregnancy prevention and planned parenthood is just the most psychotic thing I have ever heard, unless you're a radical religious person.
Some people think that the availability of contraception has led to rampant sexual immorality, increased the divorce rate, and has assisted in breaking down the family unit in general. They simply look at the statistics regarding divorce rates from before contraception and compare it to after. The daggum flippin people were just as immoral. Women were trapped though. They couldn't get a job because they had 5 or 6 kids, and even if they tried they would get laughed at, cause all they did was stay at home and make flippin babies. During or shortly after WW2 I think, was around the time contraception became available, and women were brought into the work force to help compensate for the deployed men. Once they got settled in and were able to support themselves, suprise! The divorce rate began to climb, cause if they were unhappy at home they said "Screw you." Instead of cowering, if something ticked them off they fought back. Sometime in that general period was when the "No Fault" thing went into effect too.
Sorry I'm ranting. This is just so crazy.
