Charlotte Denman Lozier 1844 1870 was an American physician. She was a feminist and in her short life campaigned for women s rights and for the right to live of the unborn. She lost her mother aged 12 and then become charged with the care of her younger offspring. Graduated from high school at 15 years old, she studied medicine at the New York Medical College for Women. She graduated with distinction and become a teacher there Lozier campaigned for equality between men and women, in her profession and in all fields. She also, like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony , supported Hester Vaughan, a woman wrongly accused of infanticide. She also served as vice president of the National Women s Working Association. Charlotte Denman Lozier also campaigned for the prison of a man who tried a young girl to commit an abortion. She firmly opposed abortion as against the female nature and a sort of infanticide. According to the New York World , Dr. Lozier insists that as the commission of crime is not one of the functions of the medical profession, a person who asks a physician to commit the crime of ante natal infanticide can no more be considered his patient than one who asks him to poison his wife. Lozier died soon after, following the premature birth of her third daughter, Jessica.

Image Defoe daniel.jpg thumb right Daniel Defoe The full original title of this 1727 essay by Daniel Defoe was Conjugal Lewdness or, Matrimonial Whoredom , though he was later asked to rename it for the sake of propriety. The modified title became A Treatise Concerning the Use and Abuse of the Marriage Bed . The essay dealt primarily with contraception , comparing it directly with infanticide . Defoe accomplished this through anecdotes, such as a conversation between two women in which the right minded chides the other for asking for recipes that might prevent pregnancy. In the essay, he further referred to contraception as the diabolical practice of attempting to prevent childbearing by physical preparations.
