My wife's reason for being on birth control in the past was not to have "unlimited fun," but to avoid unending misery. Her common law husband left her with three children to practically raise on her own. He would run off to Bangkok to work and, whenever he would return, he would not give her any money to help take care of the kids. All he wanted was to be intimate and, if she refused, he smacked her around. The poor woman was exhausted from working her tail off to feed the babies she already had, so she didn't want to have any more. It's not like she could just go on AFDC like in America. She raised her children until they were old enough to fend for themselves, then she left him. She went through all this and she is now only 38. For some women, life is not a bowl of cherries. FFT
