Prevent Pregnancy

Famous quotes containing the words prevent and/or pregnancy:

    Wise men ne’er sit and wail their woes,
    But presently prevent the ways to wail.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Back in the days when men were hunters and chestbeaters and women spent their whole lives worrying about pregnancy or dying in childbirth, they often had to be taken against their will. Men complained that women were cold, unresponsive, frigid.... They wanted their women wanton. They wanted their women wild. Now women were finally learning to be wanton and wild—and what happened? The men wilted.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)
