(49,445 posts)so he can afford 1,333,333 pills a year. So he can have sex once every 23.6 seconds.
Which is nice, because he can get like a 15-second break between rounds.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand... I'll be in the corner guzzling everclear in an attempt to get those thoughts out of my skull.

(18,672 posts)Where the conservatives roost. I just saw a really racist piece of propoganda and made light of it in my own way. It's sad and very frustrating to realize the people you like and deal with on a daily basis (at work, and sometimes at play) are racist, and conservative, yet they couldn't tell you about the most recent world events - because they don't keep up on them like you do. And you know what? Every conservative I've ever worked with thinks I'm really intelligent (which I dispute, but I hear it all the time), but because I'm liberal, that will always make them superior and better than me.

(12,335 posts)I'm sure you already know this, but Plan B just prevents conception from occurring.
It's a form of contraception.

(40,416 posts)You know. Frustrated, single guys sleeping mom and dad's basement, didn't finish high school, parents never gave them the sex talk, pissed off at all women because they aren't getting any.
What do you expect?
I know this is hyperbole, but that's how the creeps act.

(1,628 posts)If you have the ability to understand your symptoms, you have the battle won.
People have read enough to aid them selves. And this notion that only Doctors can understand peoples suffering is at best conforming.
I have been on boards like this, but of a medical nature, and these people know way more than the average doctor.
Trust me when I say that self medication can be a good thing. You remove money from those that take.
You don't have to agree...you just have to know what the hell you're talking about.
What does that have to do with the OP?
You take one birth control pill a day. What are you talking about with self medication?
DocMac
(1,628 posts)Any one who goes through this process of doctors honoring you with their wisdom is crazy.
We, as a society give them way too much credit.
And thus, women should educate themselves on what is important to them!
The wisdom here is to be informed. Is that asking too much?

DesertRat
(27,995 posts)Many women take the pill for medical conditions such as endometriosis, to protect against certain cancers, lessen painful periods and protect against anemia from excessive bleeding. It improves productivity in women who otherwise would have to take time off work and school due to excessive cramping and bleeding. It's used to lessen PMS symptoms and treat acne.
You don't have to be sexually active to receive the hormonal benefits of the birth control pill. Get it??!!
demtenjeep
(31,997 posts)would be the best way to educate them
Hugabear
(10,340 posts)There are many, many reasons why a woman would be using birth control pills. And those reasons should be HER business, and her business alone.

(4,407 posts)Rush knows one pill a day is what women take, but that simply wasn't part of the equation of his rant. And the freepers? You think they're going to care what the facts are after Limbaugh's rant?

(8,225 posts)that the vast majority of BC pills are taken on days that the women taking them don't have sex at all.... (most studies suggest this is true)
Quantess
(27,630 posts)Do you understand that birth control pills are one-a-day, but you can skip the placebos during menstruation?
noiretextatique
(27,275 posts)women who take birth control pills don't necessarily have sex every day they take the pill. at least that's what i read.
Quantess
(27,630 posts)Otherwise, I'd be really concerned about the lack of basic sex-ed.

quaker bill
(8,225 posts)I have been married for a total of 35 years. With the notable exception of the first years for each, it was rarely more than twice a week. Most studies on the topic suggest this is about normal. (despite all our thoughts to the contrary) 2/7 = 28.6%.
Quantess
(27,630 posts)I can't take it anymore! FUCK THEM if they are too stupid to grasp the concept of birth control pills. They should shut up and mind their own business if they are too stupid to know how it works. Please.

(27,275 posts)a lot of these folks are supposedly lawyers, but they seem to lack even a basic understanding of the female body and how it works.
