Margaret Sanger gave people a new and radical ideology stating how birth control helped women in many more ways than their sexuality.

Women choose the optimal alternative depending on their values and the information they have available to them (i.e., make an economically rational decision). The underlying premise of rational choice theory is that women make choices that are rewarding to them and avoid those that are not.
