Of course sexually active youth will use this as contraception. Why use condoms or the pill. Just have fun and go shopping the next day. STD rates will continue to skyrocket, and 35 yo women will wonder why they can’t conceive. Perhaps they can adopt. Oh wait we abort babies in the US, and single motherhood is akin to sainthood, so no babies to adopt. Well then off to the reproductive endocrinologist for our in vitro procedure and a new crop of embryonic stem cells to harvest for research and cosmetics....and Satan laughs.
Your sarcasm was right on the mark.
Our society is concerned now with two issues, two only: race and 24 hr sex.
Firstly, adolescent girls especially those going through puberty are NOT smaller versions of adult women. No one really knows the long term effects of raised levels of female hormones on maturing pubescent girls. Will they have fertility issues later on? Will they have higher breast, ovarian or uterine cancer rates? Is this risk worthwhile taking in view of alternative ways to prevent teen pregnancies non-pharmacologically?
Secondly, will a girl, who had just agreed to sex without a condom, have the wisdom & maturity to make the right decisions about a drug that can help her avoid the consequences of her actions but could potentially kill her?
Will the adult feminists that had a hand in her death lose any sleep over their role in pushing this drug? Probably not.
Aren't there any ecologists out there who will object to pumping yet more endocrine disruptors into--- ultimately --- our water and soil? Or would they really put drugs in their daughters that they wouldn't want in their compost piles?
It tells you everything you need to know about our Culture of Death, that conception, pregnancy and childbirth are under the purview of the "Centers for Disease Control."
