(3,056 posts)It's the main concept that the wing-nuts can't get their minds around. Years ago I can remember Ann Coulter on Bill Maher's old "Politically Incorrect" show saying how she LOVED hearing all the "juicy" details of whatever bullshit scandal they were working on at the time. They're like the nosy neighbor with binoculars. They want to know everything about your personal life, but sure as hell keep their own curtains closed.

I can't believe women have to stand up and defend their right to control their own lives, their own health. It's nobody's business but our own. And Hell no, we aren't going back, so just get that stupid idea (that you can force your beliefs down our throats) out of your head. Ain't 'gonna happen.

(5,649 posts)As a woman who has been on birth control pills for something other than birth control... I say it's no one's business why I was taking them. It's personal.

(12,608 posts)them aren't sexually active.So Rethugs have to stop saying that women who use bc are sluts. Get your facts straight and poo your crooked opinions.

(32,047 posts)BC is less invasive than surgery - my only other option. I can't get pregnant again (willingly or not) because I am on very strong prescription injections for my auto - immune disease.
5 Catholic men determining who is able to access BC or not is ridiculous. I think every single one of them should be impeacheed for this irresponsible and biased action of forcing their religion on us. In my view it is a clear violation of the establishment clause.
