“The freedom that women were supposed to have found in the Sixties largely boiled down to easy contraception and abortion; things to make life easier for men, in fact.”

Julie Burchill, British feminist and abortion advocate, in Damaged Goods, 1986

Relevant:

The typical U.S. woman wants only 2 children. To achieve this goal, she must use contraceptives for roughly 3 decades. (The Alan Guttmacher Institute (AGI), Fulfilling the Promise: Public Policy and U.S. Family Planning Clinics, New York: AGI, 2000).

In the United States alone, 13 million women use hormonal contraception. (Guttmacher Institute . Facts on Contraceptive Use in the United States, June 2010)

Lots more stats: http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/RevealingStatistics.html#Sec6

Also is the debatable issue on the contribution of hormonal contraception to estrogenic compounds in the water. http://ag.arizona.edu/azwater/awr/july00/feature1.htm
