A recently-published article in the Human Brain Mapping journal suggests that the pill, that pernicious pharmaceutical Jacobin, may actually shrink women's brains. Specifically, the study found that the use of oral contraceptives "was associated with significantly lower cortical thickness measurements in the lateral orbitofrontal cortex and the posterior cingulate cortex".
For those of you, like yours truly, so unwise in the ways of science, the lateral orbitofronal cortex and posterior cingulate cortex are areas of the brain "believed to be important for responding to rewards and evaluating internal states/incoming stimuli, respectively."
While more research is clearly needed, a link between the use of oral contraceptives and decreased mental capacity would certainly help explain the alarming popularity of feminism and similarly destructive ideologies amongst Western women today.
