I'm really shocked that birth control was so frowned upon. If girls are going to have sex freely, and have something to keep them from getting pregnant, then what is the big deal. Society at that time frowned upon single mothers, but then some states take away the right to prevent getting pregnant. You just can't win. “The most draconian was in Connecticut, where anyone convicted of using, buying, or helping someone acquire a birth control device could be fined or sentenced to up to a year in prison” (Collins 159). Going to jail for taking birth control, or helping someone get it is crazy. What in the world were people thinking back
