There WILL be riots. 1973 was a different time (I was in HS), the idea of having control over your body, having a real choice about whether/when/with whom/how many children you will have was a pretty new idea. Guess what, old men? We’ve gotten pretty accustomed to this concept. There’s no putting the genie back in the bottle. You think women are mad now?
