4. It's nobody's business why women are taking ANY prescribed drugs. It's their health, their bodies, their choice.
5. Billo said "Why should *I* pay..." It's been framed as a matter of taxpayers giving FREE stuff away to people who aren't paying, which is the big emotional hot button for right-wingers. Now added to the stereotype of the Lazy Welfare Queen, we have the Oversexed College Coed.
