„Some day birth control will come off prescription, and they’ll need those cute little catchy names like the patent medicines have…some day birth control pills will have names like, “Preg-Not”! Doctors prefer “Embry-No”! Here’s one for the ladies, “Nary-A-Carry”! Something lofty and poetic: “Nay Family Way”; something earthhy and crude: “Mom Bomb”; something for the youngsters, “Junior Miss”; here’s a real man’s product, “Inconceivable”! “Mommy-Not”, “Fetus Fail”, “Kiddie Kill”, “Papa Stopper”, “Womb Broom”, “Humpty Dumpty”… I wouldn’t be surprised if they came up with a birth control pill that doesn’t work all the time; they’d call it “Baby Maybe!”“
