They resolved to face public obloquy and even legal\u003cbr\u003eprosecution in order to bring to these women knowledge of how to\u003cbr\u003eprevent conception, which, in their opinion, would give the relief\u003cbr\u003ethey so sorely needed. As is well known, the later pamphlet on the\u003cbr\u003esame subject written by themselves was withdrawn from publication by\u003cbr\u003eMrs. Besant in 1886 on religious grounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring the last few years the idea of the need for conception control\u003cbr\u003ehas again become prominent, partly as a revolt against the bondage of\u003cbr\u003ewomen in child-bearing, partly accentuated by the difficulties and\u003cbr\u003euncertainties of an adequate livelihood, and the desire to have a few\u003cbr\u003echildren well educated and cared for rather than many who shift more\u003cbr\u003eor less for themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut also the claim is made that marriage exists at least as much for\u003cbr\u003ethe fulfilment of happiness in union with the beloved as for the\u003cbr\u003eprocreation of children; and that it should be possible for a married\u003cbr\u003epair to have the fullest gratification without fear of children unless\u003cbr\u003ethey desire them.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069172826352,"sku":"2940014187862","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014187862_p0.jpg?v=1763602598","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014187862","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
