Really loving a lot of the ideas around here. Mind wandered into the topic of birth control, given what was said earlier (>>11328223) about the obvious commitment that it can be to have sex.

In a matriarchy where women are the ones more eager to initiate, contraceptive medicine would have likely never gone through the barriers it did in our world. It was never illegal, and research into birth control pills would have been done much earlier, so women's health be a lot more advanced.

What I'm getting at here, is that birth control would be far less stigmatized, and complications with differing bodies and hormonal conditions would have all been solved. Being more adventurous is helped by the fact that not only do you live in a matriarchy where women have a more dominating social role, but the fact that birth control in this reality can be consumed like tictacs.

No adverse effects, no menstrual / hormonal complications. Whether you use a rubber or go raw depends on preference.
