Note
For hundreds of years, women have taken charge of their sexuality and fertility through natural methods of contraception and family planning. However, a shift from green methods of contraception has caused once respected and tried methods of natural birth control to be dismissed and disregarded in favor of hormonal birth control via the pharmaceutical industry courtesy of Western science. Ms. Grossman hopes to begin a rewarding and inspiring career combining her academic background in Communications and Women's Studies. This paper was presented at the Comparative Studies Association 2008 Conference: Interdisciplinarity and Environmental Sustainability.
