    To be fair, it's a HuffPost story - and a HuffPost headline - and there's a recording of the guy saying what he said.

    Misleading? Maybe. Open to interpretation? Sure.

    That was an especially weak deflection from you. :cool:

    You don't like the story because it puts a Republican in a bad light, so you attack the source. Slacker is right. Weak sauce.

    The new state of healthcare in America: one for men and a worse one for women | Moira Donegan

    Maybe the pharmacist at the Tucson, Arizona, Walgreens was acting out of religious conviction. Maybe they were afraid that they could get arrested. We may never know. What we do know is that on 26 September, two days after Arizona’s abortion ban went into effect, Emma Thompson, a 14-year-old girl with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, was denied her prescription for methotrexate.

    Gabrielle Blair’s book boldly reframes the abortion debate. The title says it all: ‘Ejaculate Responsibly.’

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/books/2022/10/19/ejaculate-responsibly-book/

    Sure, sex is great, but have you seen the title of Gabrielle Blair’s new book, “Ejaculate Responsibly”? As I found out firsthand when I left my copy on a coffee shop table, some people find the title intriguing — others are, no word play intended, turned off.

    It certainly must feel offensive to that second group that anyone would dare tell them what to do with their bodies. I can’t imagine! That’s only because I don’t have to. As everyone knows, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade this spring. Blair’s book proposes a (theoretically) duh-simple solution to the thorny issue of abortion: If men took responsibility for how and where they ejaculated, it would eliminate most unwanted pregnancies and, therefore, the need for most abortions.

    “My key claim is that 99 percent of abortions are the result of unwanted pregnancies, and men cause all unwanted pregnancies,” Blair writes. “An unwanted pregnancy doesn’t happen because people have sex. An unwanted pregnancy only happens if a man ejaculates irresponsibly — if he deposits his sperm in a vagina when he and his partner are not trying to conceive.”

    My Mama always said it takes two to tango (b. 1931. d. 2018) Naive? Maybe I missed something. Will men be held to a standard to provide while women are held to a standard to produce? I think not.
