I commissioned a post!

There was an auction to raise money for con_or_bust, and I bid for the fascinating blogger and historian oursin to write a custom post. Even though I didn't win the auction, she generously chose to honour all the bids. So you should all head over and read her witty and succinct history of free birth control in the UK. It turns out that a surprising concatenation of factors lead to the current situation.

Squee, I feel like a proper Patron now!
