Seven-Up or Knocked-up

Before sex education              
Girls used                                  
Seven-Up Pop                            
As
A douche                                  
Birth control Contraception    

Before sex education became acceptable, and birth control legal, women often used 7-Up to douche, after sex, to prevent pregnancy.  Thank God those days of hypocrisy are over.  But considering the SCOTUS Hobby Lobby decision, I fear we may soon return to that age of ignorance.
