20. Exactly how I feel.

Why does the government, federal or state, have to make such laws in the first place? The right of women to obtain birth control is innate as far as I'm concerned.

Does the government have to make a law saying that men can take Viagra? No, because everyone understands that it's strictly up to a man and his doctor to make that decision. The government need not say anything about it one way or another.

Anytime anyone even suggests that there should be laws putting restrictions on birth control, they should be jeered at and have rotten fruit thrown at them. Women should not put up with such shit. They need to claim their innate rights to do as they like with their own bodies.
