Marie Carmichael Stopes

    Marie Stopes était une auteure, paléobotaniste et universitaire britannique qui a défendu les droits des femmes et a été une pionnière dans le domaine de la contraception. Ses contributions à la paléobotanique et à la classification du charbon furent significatives, et elle fut la première femme universitaire à la faculté de l'Université de Manchester. Avec son second mari, elle fonda la première clinique de contraception en Grande-Bretagne. Son manuel sexuel, Married Love, fut controversé et influent, amenant le sujet de la contraception dans le discours public. Elle prônait la prévention de la conception plutôt que l'avortement, arguant que cela suffisait.
