What if they’re actually dumb and we need other other strategies? Something to think about before banning the pill.

As a parent I find the environment extremely child-hostile. I don’t want to go into it here, I’m just pointing out there’s a lot of work one could do besides blocking a certain gender from equal access to birth control pills.

Regardless whether the strategies are bad or not, banning contraceptives should never be on the table.

It might be child-hostile, but is how child-hostile the environment is actually a consideration? The situation for having children has never been better, but birthrates are some of the lowest they have ever been.
