        I don’t understand why anyone is against contraception.

        Its a great way to “trap” someone who you fear is going to leave you because you’re a slacker working a dead end job and you know they can do better if they could see the reality of the situation.

        Funny enough, its also why they’re against no-fault divorces.

        When the birth control pill was first released, people opposed it by claiming that women would just take trains of lovers while their husband was at work, since there was no longer the risk of pregnancy.

        That was 64 years and many of those people became politicians and church leaders or passed their shitty views down to their shitty children.

            Them banging people doesn’t upset them, only that their wives and daughters might do the same.

        evangelicals are against it cause they dont want women to have options.

        They want women to pump out tiny soldiers of christ who will grow up indoctrinated to take seats of government, starting at the local, and working their way up to state and federal, until the christofascist extremists control all aspects of government, with the power and authority to brutally put down any “non-believer” I.E. anyone that is critical of their behavior or actions.
