I know what you mean; if we have a president who agreed with the men on this thread 100%, I'd know for certain the Muslims had taken over and women had zero rights.
It doesn't make it okay. It is still destroying life.
I used contraceptions when I was younger, that prevented fertilization too. Is that bad? No. Is it any of your business or anyone elses? No. Who will judge? God.
It is everyone's business when innocent life is being destroyed!
You hinted it at it, but I'm just not sure.... LOL!
100% and ditto, to you too!
:-)
later, gator
I need to find some sanity on this thread because otherwise I'm going to be convinced I'm reading posts directly from Tehran.
You're still floating on the river of denial regarding this pill. I tried to throw you a life vest, but you're on your own now. ;)
I respect your opinion, but I strongly disagree with it.
As an ex-pharmaceutical rep who worked for Searle and Schering Plough, here's my take on this pill. The Plan B effect creates a huge spike in the hormone which initiates the uterine lining build up ... this hormone is a trace chemical produced when the follicle has erupted and expelled an ovum, thus the spike is designed to prevent the release of the voum. Hormone cycle feedback is a delicate one and the huge spike results in an eventual inhospitable uterine lining rather than a gradually built up one, thus a menses results shortly rather than two weeks later.
In cyberspace anything is possible. The Taliban has 'puters too, ya know.
See ya later. :)
Peach, with all due respect, you have alikened men that are against abortion and this morning after pill with Muslims and Mullahs simply because they don't agree with you. That's a very shoddy way to debate.
It could be equally said of you that thank God YOU aren't in charge and that all women don't think like you do. If they did, the world would cease to exist because we would abort and birth control ourselves out of existence.
And the argument that "IF" it prevents and it "might have occurred" then...
Man-- better not drink alcohol ever, take medications ever or even some vitamins ever because IF there's a fertalized egg and they don't know it they could be committing murder since we all know they can be harmful as well.
IF IF IF , maybe, might be....good grief!!
I don't have a problem with this. Isn't "Early Abortion Pill" a misnomer? There's no one to abort.
Hon, with all due respect, it's not you that will have a baby and so yes, I'm delighted you aren't in charge of birth control and what is legal and what isn't legal.
This is NOT the morning after pill. Do you understand that? That's an entirely different matter altogether.
As to your point about mullahs, yes, it was over the top. I also think it's over the top for men to try and dictate birth control for WOMEN and to call this pill things that it is not and to say the president has blood on his hands.
See my post #186 ... it can cause an abortion to an early implantation via the mechanism I explained (or I thought I explained).
This isn't the morning after pill. This isn't Bush with blood on his hands, as some freepers have said.
This is just like the birth control pill. And if you think women are going to sit around and listen to men dictate what should and should not be legal when it comes to birth control, you're living on another planet.
Good point. You know, aspirin can really cause problems. Maybe no one should ever take that.
Exactly. This isn't an early abortion pill because there's nothing to abort.
Nope not if they're sexually active that is! In fact, that may explain alot ! Older folks, single folks, widows etc., rarely consider these things because well frankly it is not a possiblity in their lives. Easy to judge.
There's that "if" mechanism again.
