I will admit to not being as up to speed on this as I should have been
I guess I blurred this with the abortion pill
this product seems like it is more for a woman that does not want the effects of birth control pills,
but may upon occasion have unprotected sex, and instead of worrying if conception occurred, for $10 - $70, (that is one price range I saw) she can take one doze and put her mind at ease, instead of waiting to see if a pregnancy takes and then going through all that would be involved in having it terminated.
I see a woman using this randomly, if it was used on a regular bases, one would be better off just taking birth control
with that in mind, I can understand, why in a perfect world, a 17+ year old girl could be a reasonable candidate
but we do not live in anything close to a perfect world, and with one extreme,the person-hood group, wanting to call the use of this pill murder, they want the glass to be empty.
And on the other side, if an 11 year old had unprotected sex, and had the good sense to take this pill, why would any one not want that to be an option, is it better for her to get pregnant?? Let the glass be completely full, right?
well, we do live in an imperfect, political world
Empty glass side have a big loss with this
and full glass side, well, they got 4/5 full glass.
remember if we had a GOP President, he would stop foreign aid if it did any kind of family planning,
and this drug would have no chance of being "over the counter" for anyone, and many would be pushing to ban it completely, for murdering 'person-hoods'.
