Our favorite posts from Thanks, Birth Control Day

This week, we celebrated our 9th annual Thanks, Birth Control Day, and friends, it was beautiful. We laughed, we cried, we retweeted. Thousands of people showed up on social to declare their love for birth control. Here are just some of the amazing things we heard people thanking birth control for:

1. For helping us resist pressure to have kids when we don’t want to

2. For letting us focus on our careers

3. Because having kids should be a choice, not a consequence

4. For helping us live life on our own terms (and hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it, get it, get it, get it, get it)

5. Because there are so many dang options that there’s something for everyone

6. Because contraception is not controversial

7. Because just thinking about it gives us all the feels

8. For letting us focus on the babies we have
