Roe vs. Wade This case stated that abortions are the choice of the women up until the point at which the fetus can live outside of the mother on its one which is about 28 weeks. This court case demonstrated that this era was about freedom of sexuality while having contraception in mind. Jane Roe was denied to have an abortion in the state of Texas because her life was not in danger because of the pregnancy.

The 60's and 70's were full of sexual freedom and experimentation, and is known as the sexual revolution. During this period there was an increase in premarital sex. This new way of seeing sex as open and expressive brought the need of contraceptives, and extensions of legalized abortion. The pill and abortion contributed to increased rates of single mothers, “love children,” high divorce rates and illegal drug use. The Sexual Revolution

Woodstock and the Musical Revolution Roughly 400,000 people attended the festival. Ultimately cost more than $2.4 million In the cultural-political atmosphere of 1969, promoters Kornfeld and Lang knew it was important to pitch Woodstock in a way that would appeal to their peer's sense of independence (Woman’s Rights on trial.)  Woodstock took place on a farmland near Bethel, New York.  Woodstock showcased the stoner revolution of the 1970s with artists like Jimi Hendrix, Ravi Shankar, Grateful Dead, CCR, Janis Joplin, and many others. (Geocities)

Drugs in the 60s and 70s The most common drugs of this era included LSD (acid) and marijuana and cocaine. These drugs, as well as rock n’ roll and protests of the Vietnam war, all contributed to the hippie movement.
