Be careful with language games as this issue gains prominence.

Condoms and diaphragms are methods of contraception. I think it unlikely that methods of that sort would be outlawed by any state. There are people who would oppose such methods, but it is a subset of a subset. Keeping the egg and sperm apart will seem like a pretty harmless and sensible practice to many people.

When the Left campaigns against “contraception” they will be working to ensure birth control pills, but they will talk about the issue as if condoms are being outlawed.

Many Republican politicians are not nimble enough to answer these questions, and will stumble and lose, taking the party down with them.

That’s correct. They want to control the language to control debate, they want to make opposition seem as extreme and unpalatable and scary as possible to achieve victory at the ballot box and get their payday.

Almost no one in the political world talks about barrier contraception being problematic but the Left will use that umbrella term to instill FUD (fear, uncertainty & doubt)

The only answer to this question is “no, we won’t ban birth control”
