Someone mentioned on here the other day that contraception is still an issue for feminists.
I think the comment was that more research needs to be done into the side-effects of hormonal contraception, rather than minimising women's experiences of them (I've experienced this loads - "Oh, yes, you might put on weight but only a few pounds" etc).
It's an issue that's weighing on my mind at the moment, because we've decided it's time for my partner to have a vasectomy, and I am feeling irrationally guilty about it, even though he suggested it in the first place.
I'm not sure what I'm asking really . Is there any recommended reading about contraception from a feminist perspective?
