Remind me to tell my doctors that birth control is not medicine. And all the medical researchers, too.
After being on vacation for two weeks, it’s good to be reminded what these folks are all about: opposition to the new federal guidelines requiring insurance companies to cover birth control with no co-pay costs is not about money or religion. It is squarely about thinking that the role of women in our society is to produce babies. Because as the good congressman said,
“Preventing babies from being born is not medicine. That's not -- that's not constructive to our culture and our civilization. If we let our birth rate get down below replacement rate we're a dying civilization."Women doing anything other than having babies is not only not constructive to propagating American culture, but makes me responsible for the death of civilization.
Such power, we women have. Who knew?
