Yep. Once it became relatively safe and ubiquitous people who wanted to control women had problems with it. When it was unreliable and very dangerous for women, they were fine with it. :/
Samantha bee, when she had her late night show on TBS, did a great three part piece on the rise of the religious right. I highly recommend it. She talks about a literal conference call among Republican strategists in the 70s or 80s, trying to figure out how to harness the voting power of white Christians. They brought up multiple issues, and then one said, “how about abortion?” And that’s literally the call that changed everything.
Edit: here’s the video. I’m on mobile so I can’t link to a specific time, but it’s early in the cid, starts around 1:10
