But in all my life,I have never had a problem getting it and getting it using my insurance to get it. I say this as an aunt who two weeks ago went with my sister to Planned Parenthood to get my niece on the pill because she's sexually active,if young women don't start sending a clear message to these troglodytes ,through the voting booth and through political activism, to stay the fuck out of their business,we will see every right we fought for to control our own bodies go away.
