An informed, mutual understanding of available birth control methods is an important part of informed consent, and all parties engaging in a sexual activity are responsible for prioritizing one another’s reproductive health. Often the responsibility of thinking about and accessing birth control falls on partners with uteruses, but that doesn’t mean that people without uteruses shouldn’t be informed about it.

Despite this success, students must continue to engage in state, local and national politics by voting, staying informed and interacting with the community opportunities available to them.
