==Legality (US)==

Prior to 1965, some US states criminalized the possession and/or distribution of contraceptives for reasons of public morality on the grounds that contraception would encourage [[premarital sex]]. In the 1965 [[Supreme Court]] case of [[Griswold v. Connecticut]], [[activist judges]] invented a constitutional right to contraception. The 1972 case of [[Eisenstadt v. Baird]] later extended this invented right to include even unmarried couples, rendering any legal attempt to restrict access impossible.

Until a 1923 court decision, the federal [[Cornstock Act]] prohibited the use of the mail service to distribute contraceptives or information on contraception or [[abortion]]. Contraception was until this time considered [[obscene]] for legal purposes, as it was considered to serve only in the promotion of immorality.
