Safe, legal abortion has always been difficult to get in parts of the country and there are to this day people who perform abortions illegally for those who cannot obtain one legally or can't afford to.


* ''Theatre/ForColoredGirls'': For some reason, even though the film came out in 2010 and has all the trappings of that era (it's definitely post-1981, since Jo gets HIV), Nyla still goes to an alcoholic BackAlleyDoctor to get an abortion, even though this was legal and could be had safely at a clinic.

** The fashion in this film is ''all'' over the place. Most of the characters wear 19th-century style clothes, but Cinderella's step-family - perhaps as a nod to the fact that [[WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}} the animated version]] was released in 1950 - boast plenty of 50s-style outfits. Including sleeveless/strapless ball gowns, a style that didn't appear until the 1930s.
