And this is the lie that conservatives will continue to propagate in an effort to ‘justify’ violating a woman’s right to privacy – more rightwing misogyny, more rightwing vilification of women, more rightwing attacks on women; lying about abortion being the sole purview of ‘immoral’ women who are ‘reckless and irresponsible.’

I don't understand this right to privacy thing. What does that even mean? You guys just follow along with the lines that the borg collective feed you. First it was a woman has the right to do whatever she wants with her own body, including terminating her pregnancy. Now that she doesn't have that right anymore (in some areas) she has a right to privacy? Again, what does that mean? Yes, people, including women, have a right to their medical files being private. So what? How does that give a woman the right to terminate a pregnancy in an area where it is against the law? If a woman has the right to do what she wants with her own body, does she have the right to commit suicide? Isn't suicide against the law? Does she have the right to murder her husband, if she wants to keep in private? After all, she has a right to privacy, remember?
Agreeing with someones ”right to privacy” is an easier sell then the “right” to kill another human being before it’s born.

The pill is about 90% effective and a diaphragm with spermicide is even more effective. However there is no foolproof birth control except abstinence. Diaphragms have to be fitted properly and spermicide have to be applied property. The right kind of birth control pills have to used and missing the pill can cause problems. For couples who seldom have sex, the probability of pregnancy is low but for those who have sexual intercourse nightly, the probability is high event with birth control.

Taking a birth control pill each day prevents pregnancy 99% of the time. Learn how it works.
"Birth control pills are a type of contraception that is 99% effective at preventing pregnancy when taken consistently every day. The pill contains hormones that regulate menstruation, lower the risk of ovarian and uterine cancers, improve acne and treat endometriosis."
That’s not trying or being stupid. If you take the damn pills it’s 99% effective. If you never take them its 0% effective but that’s on you not the birth control method.
And if everyone took pills exactly as they should and don't have medical conditions that prevent them from doing so and they never make a misstate, then the need for abortions almost goes away. Unfortunately, humans are not perfect and shit happens. Thus, the backup is the morning after pill, the abortion pill, or surgical abortion.
