It's also ironic that feminists and pro-abortion-rights activists have yelled for years at anti-abortion politicians, "STAY OUT of my bedroom! STAY OUT of my uterus!!" and......
"Only a woman and her doctor should be involved in a woman's reproductive decisions (abortion)....NOT a bunch of old white men in Washington".
And now, the same people are saying, "Get IN here and PAY for control of my uterine lining and other tissue growth.....Get IN here and PAY to alter my ovarian function.....Get IN here and pay for ligation of my fallopian tubes to sterilize me!"
So, Enter the politicians, employers' benefits managers, insurance company claims processors, etc. etc. etc. etc.
Personally, if I wanted all these politicians and employers to "stay out of my bedroom and uterus", I would pay for contraceptives MYSELF, for the price of $15 to $40 per month. And if a person can't afford the pills, then go to an agency like Planned Parenthood to get them!! That's what millions of privately donated dollars are given to them for!
So in the end, it's ALL about getting "FREE" government-paid healthcare and prescriptions.......Getting them with OPM--Other People's Money.
So somehow, the right to PRIVACY, that is so essential to the Roe v. Wade decision, should now be thrown out the window for the sake of getting a $20 prescription for "Free" from the government using "other people's money", with all kinds of "old white men in Washington" getting involved and even using it in their re-election campaign speeches and soundbites.
What a bunch of phonies these women's "health advocates" are.
