Conservatives can hammer the Dems on this issue. Ask them how a girl attending college with no income and job go off having sex so frequently that she racks up a 3000+ dollar birth control pill costs??!!! The risky behavior opens the student to unwanted pregnancy and STD especially if it is done so frequently. This Georgetown witness is arguing that it is not for us to judge. Excuse me ma’am, if I am paying for it thru taxes I have the RIGHT to judge. She is suppose to be a ivy league college educated woman and she has the morals/judgement of an uneducated hedonists!!?? I am not very mad at her, but at her parents and the professors of Georgetown. What standards are they teaching her and bringing her up with??!!! The sad part is anyone who can rack up 3000 plus in birth control pills is leading a lifestyle that life in time will teach them hard lessons.
And you hit on another important item. The fact that birth control pills offer NO protection against STDs.
And a chlamydia epidemic is raging across college campuses.
Heck, in 1988, one of my roomates was a major “male whore,” and managed to get chlamydia from 1 of 4 women he was screwing and passed it on to the other 3, including his ostensible girlfriend at home.
