When I first attended the Johns Hopkins University in 1948 as an
undergraduate, a certain hill near the stadium was known as rubber hill.
Wikipedia tells me condoms have been in use for 400 years. By the time I
got married in the mid 1950s, my wife continued into graduate school and
had a diaphragm which, in its more modern form, was invented in the 1880s,
popularized in Europe and reintroduced to the USA by Margaret Sanger after
WW1.
