Birth Control
THIS EPISODE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN!
Mindy’s back! On this episode, Christi and Mindy discuss the plethora of ways women have attempted to prevent pregnancy across time. Did you know that contraceptives are #19 on the list of Top 100 Famous Inventions and Greatest Ideas of All Time? Or that birth control was once a federal crime?!?
Topics discussed include: coitus interruptus; castration; chastity belts; condoms; pessaries; vaginal douching with Lysol (YES, Lysol!); amulets made of weasel testicles; incantations; squat and sneeze method; bundling; and even witches!
The pair talk briefly about the Comstock Act of 1873 (colloquially called the “Chastity Law”) and Mindy comes to the realization that she’s a bad feminist.
