“Chemical contraceptives were first introduced as being good for our bodies,” said Vicki Thorn, founder of Project Rachel and the National Office for Post Abortion Reconciliation and Healing.
“There was very little research that was done when chemical contraception first became available.”
Thorn spoke Nov. 6 on the topic of “The Science of Attraction: A New View on Sex” at the Aquinas Institute for Catholic Thought, an intellectual arm of ministry on the campus of CU Boulder, Colorado.
She said that in the wake of activist Margaret Sanger's birth control movement in the early 20th century – which sought legalization and widespread availability of the pill – society has been largely bereft of the knowledge on exactly what chemical contraception does to the female body.
