Rights to abortion, contraception, marriage, relationships, and privacy ARE in the US Constitution!!

Amendment IX:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people

In 1791, women had a right to terminate a pregnancy up until quickening, and that was a legal doctrine that went back centuries under British Common Law.
