Why is it called 'birth control' anyway? |
|
Wouldn't that involve sewing up or installing a zipper on specific things?
Don't they mean "fertilization control"? Or does that sound like a commercial for Round-Up weed control... :shrug:

1. Really it should be called "birth prevention" |
|
Or "pregnancy prevention". I mean, that's the idea, isn't it?
