There are a lot of great inventions during the 1900s, but I am of the opinion that the Birth Control Pill might be the greatest.
Seriously, it allowed women to not " stay" pregnant like people did in the past, and allowed women to become professionals, all with the ability of being married and being able to control the amount of children they could produce.
Some of you may say, " well, it allows unmarried women to have sex without ramifications."
Well, guess what, before 1960 when The Pill was introduced to the market, people were having sex. Many unmarried. And many people got married, at the point of the shotgun. Women disappeared for 9 months, and many women had a mysterious " D&C"....( look it up )
I know some people may get on here and say taking it is a sin, or sex for the shear pleasure of having sex is a sin, or using any type of artificial birth control is a sin, but I disagree. In my opinion, sex is an important part of a relationship, and being a Protestant, I don't see artificial birth control as a sin...
Sorry if you think a/c or the Internet or Blue Bell is a greater invention, I am convinced, The Pill trumps them all...
