Added DiffLines:
** While improving individual welfare the contraception proves to be a societal detriment due to brutal realities of demographics in preindustrial societies. Neighbors which lack the contraceptive or ban it wind up outnumbering users. At best it winds up being allowed only in some limited circumstances such as during famines, for royal dynasties after heirs are produced, and for prostitutes.
Added DiffLines:
* '''Played For Laughs''': The form of contraceptive is silly and unpleasant to use like [[AssShove shoving a special turnip up your butt.]]
