My thoughts are that birth control has liberated women. How many women throughout the world would have prefered a different life being able to make wider choices about their lives and being able to decide whether to have children or not?

Abortion should be avoided of course... but I don't think, for example, that a 12 year old girl who's been gang-raped by boys on her way home from school, should be expected to go ahead with a pregnancy.
