No contraceptives back then, you've got to be kidding. Contraception through the ages...: "In the 1600s, douches became popular among French prostitutes. Most didn't work. However, once women figured out that acidity of a lemon killed sperm, the use of lemon juice became very popular! It was widely used in many cultures. Some women in the 1700s even used a half-squeezed lemon as a diaphragm!" "The US Right's desire to go back to the good ol' days borders on fantasy." Yes, that straw man comes straight out of the fantasy of liberal talking points. The right doesn't want to go back to any days. It would like to see the Constitution applied these days. |

One has to admit that the argument about the insured availability of birth control. or lack thereof, is a terribly sexist concept. We talk about "getting knocked up." We talk about, "if one want contraceptives they should just go out and buy them." For the most part, only men can do that. Most women's contraceptives require a doctor's prescription and sometime the doctor administering them. Most contraceptives for women are a medical issue that logically should be covered by medical insurance. Of course those that want to punish women by having them carry a fetus to birth and/or have more abortions would be consistent in their actions to attempt to deny women access to medical treatments such as contraception. |

That simply is not true. The President has made co comment on anyone's need to change their beliefs. Why are you making things up? Edited by colo_crawdad, Feb 25 2012, 09:43 AM.

Condoms are ony about 85% effective for preventing pregnancy. Oral contraceptives nealy 100% effective. Condoms are primarily for preventing STDs. |

Once again, I didn't say that, crawdad. Please don't put your words in my mouth. They're distasteful. |
