It made sex into a purely pleasureful act without realizing that sex's true purpose is reproduction.

A lady in her 30's, a lady my neighbor worked for...was healthy by all means and had a stroke out of the blue...and the doctor told her it was birth control pills and that its not uncommon at all!!!!!!! She is still in therapy trying to regain full use of her body.
