Parody video shows why GOP ‘gynoticians’ shouldn’t dictate women’s health

David Cross and Amber Tamblyn slam "gynoticians" with a new video on women's health and reproductive rights

Can you imagine if this actually happened to you? If you're one of millions of American women, it has. It is happening not in an exam room, but in a room with marbled floors, expensive pens and numerous symbols of "freedom," populated by men and women in crisp suits whose ideas about "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are rooted in illogical double-standards and hypocrisies that boggle the mind. These people are making decisions about you, for you, but not by you. They are passing wildly unpopular laws everyday that dictate the choices you can or cannot make, the health care you may or may not be afforded, the rights you can or cannot enjoy in regards to your very own body. Tell Gynoticians like Rick Perry, Trent Franks, Pat McCrory and the Pat McCrorys of women like representative Jodie Laubenberg and Marsha Blackburn that enough is enough: We aren't just coming for their laws, we're coming for their JOBS.

Parody video shows why GOP ‘gynaeticians’ shouldn’t dictate women’s health

In the video, Tamblyn visits Cross for a routine check-up, which she notes is now covered thanks to the Affordable Care Act. Cross concurs that the check-up is “unfortunately” covered, but promises that efforts are underway repeal the law.

When Tamblyn asks for a prescription for birth control, Cross medically examines her hand and concludes she is “good to go” since new research from 1926 found women don’t have sex before marriage.

Tamblyn informs Cross she seeking a prescription for birth control to reduce menstrual cramps, not because of her sex life, which is none of his business anyway. Cross agrees to write her a prescription, but Tamblyn receives Viagra rather than oral contraceptives.

“What that will allow you to do is find a gentleman that will intercourse the cramps out of ya once you’re married. It’s a win, win,” he explains.

Tamblyn is later horrified to learn that Cross isn’t a gynecologist. He is an elected “gynaetician” with a Bachelor of Art degree from the Todd Akin non-Technical College of Biological Studies and Rhetoric.
