"After all, those of us who remember when birth control was illegal and when 10,000 American women a year died from illegal abortions..."

Ahem.....how OLD is Ellen Goodman.....I think I'm around her age, and I DO NOT remember birth control being ILLEGAL...

Ellen Goodman was born in 1941.

Was birth control ever illegal? Haven't condoms been around in one form or another for centuries? Haven't diaphragms been widely available since the 1920's?

Birth control pills have been around since before Roe v Wade. Why are so many women so STUPID?

Now, forgive me for being uninformed of the pre "roe vs wade" days (I was born in 1970) but I thought that you COULD get an abortion if 1. you had a doctor willing to do it or 2. a medical reason from your doctor..is this not true?
