You are off by almost 50 years. it began with Sanger in 1916. She began promoting ABC and then opened up "Clinics" in 1929 the same year that the COE accepted ABC.
Coincidence, I don't think so.
Indeed. The pill was not radical enough a test of the blood oath of murder of feminists
Sanger was the Godmother, Kinsey in the 50s was the Godfather.
There’s also a LOT of historical revisionism going on. For example, WGN has what was a promising new series, Manhattan, about Los Alamos and the building of the atomic bombs.
As of last week it jumped the shark and became unwatchable. But had been building to that point for a while. One of the lead scientists sneaks out to bang the American Indian domestic help. His teenage daughter is hooked on drugs (peyote) and banging an Army private. His wife is an environmentalist trying to get investigations started into some of the unusal things she’s seeing that are (obviously) related to what they’re playing around with.
The WACS are all prostitutes. There’s a McCarthyite black world investigator trying to target Commies. He stumbles on one of the physicists who is a homosexual (and former lover of a physicist who defected tonthe Soviet Union), but everyone covers for the guy (either out of goodness of the heart or extortion)
I was one episode away from giving the whole soap operatic mess up as the historically contrived/implausible elements were taking over from the good stuff). That episode was last weekend where the relatively Conservative/naive young Jewish wife of one of the main characters gets seduced by a lesbian neighbor (nubby is at Oak Ridge on a trip and the two have a drunken girls night out, followed by a girls night in) and responds very aggressively (cue Katy Perry).
The point being that while stuff like that was certainly going on (I believe fully the stories about Eleanor Roosevelt), it wasn’t nearly as pervasive as the show makes it out to be. Which serves to support and reinforce the historical revisionism designed to (Orwell being a prophet) undermine the common historical understandings that matter to our society.
