Price of promiscuity, ping!
This piece seems to be a hodgepodge of poor writing and misinformation.
The original thought is an increase in sexual transmitted diseases. Then there is a shift in mid thought to emergency contraceptives. Such drugs prevent pregnancy, not disease.
The author seems confused in thinking an emergency contraception like a condom, prevents disease.
It's a shame there isn't some easy, reliable method of preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. If we just knew how these diseases were transmitted, we could avoid those situations and solve the problem. Maybe researchers will find the answers - some day, if we stop the sequester and give them more funding.
Dang. You beat me to it except I didn’t have the photo and was just going to remind mz. fluke that birth control pills don’t prevent std’s nearly as well as condoms. Is she the new apple annie?
“Price of promiscuity, ping!”
Yep, and as the bugs now develop resistance to anti-biotics I think people may start to think a bit harder before “going for it”.
“This piece seems to be a hodgepodge of poor writing and misinformation.”
If I didn’t know better, I would have to say that the author believes pregnancy is an STD that can be easily treated.
Is there any sensible person who listened to Ms. Fluke, or worse “met” with her, who didn’t think of her as soon as the rampant spread of STDs was mentioned?
I hope the guys things fall off. A lesson learned.
20M new infections per year is huge. Before long, the entire adult population of the US would be infected. Of course, some people get infected multiple times. But, still, I have trouble believing this number.
I gather then that pregnancy is an infection which results in disease.
What a beautiful world the unbeliever hath wrought.
you have to wonder why Bambi has never made a speech regarding the wide-spread “Health-Related” crisis. Yet he wont stop talking about how Republicans hate those on wheelchairs,toss em of the cliff, etc. And if he did, anyone wanna guess who would get the blame for the last 20 Million STD Infections?
In 15 years, we’ll all be infected! /s
About time for obama to require registration of all sexual organs, especially those with semi-automatic capability, high rate of fire, high capacity magazines, those with collapsible/foldable parts, and mounts of any type.
Confiscation is the ultimate goal, but details of coverage under obamacare is still being studied.
... more than a 250 percent increase in the use of ["emergency contraceptives"] in the last decade and more than a 1000 percent increase since 1995.
... approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1998 ...
An increase in the use of hormonal contraceptives, especially injections, has a strong positive correlation with STD infection rates. Apparently the sort of women who screw around really do think their contraceptives protect them from disease.
Probably mostly liberal democrats that are getting the STD’s too. :)
There are no sensible persons that listen to her. The 10 who showed up for her world wind tour in Reno while stumping for hussein were for sure not sensible. Not sure if they actually showed up for her or just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Had I known she was going to be in town I would have tossed her some condoms to help defray her (our) costs of her birth control issues. We certainly don’t want her breeding and actually producing any offspring.
P.S. I don’t waste capital letters on redical left wing extremist demokkkrat scumbags. Like mz. fluke.
Um, Jersey Shore? LOL!
