    Good GAWD! You call a breast exam " groping a woman's boobies" ! What a childishly silly thing to say!

    And what do you mean , "at best" ??? They have qualified staff to do breast exams( what adults call them).....if anything is found they are given a referral to have a mammogram....NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THAT...? Nothing.


    And my Gawd , you didn't know that women can do their own breast exams !!!!!


    So I guess PP's experts can do a good job of , as YOU childishly say, "groping boobies"...

    What constitutes as 'cancer screen 'to you, and what harm does it do to check before perfoming an abortion if they are asked ?

    That does not define your doctors office, a medical clinic perhaps.

    I bet you don't even realize the dislike for women, maybe even hatred for, or fear of, women is expressed in your disrespectful and rather ignorant words..."""groping the woman's boobies""".

    Add another like "after they jam the luminaria in there?"" and all the other weird scenarios you've come up with concerning women's reproductive organs and my view of you isn't too good....ever ask yourself about this obsession?

    The terms are interchangeable.
    Frequently clinic refers to free care settings.
    Often a clinic refers to a collection of offices.

    Clinic and office do not provide the type of distinguishing "definition" you are looking for.

    It is known that they don't offer prenatal care.
    This does not stop the political PR campaign from perpetrating this falsehood however.

    Planned Parenthood is an abortion factory. If they really cared about reducing abortions and women' health they wouldn't be making it difficult for women to get birth control.


    'Reproductive healthcare is at the crux of the healthcare culture war between Democrats and Republicans. The birth control pill is one of the most common methods of birth control used by women, yet it remains out of reach for many. Both parties are exercising paternalism by assuming women do not have good enough judgment to take responsibility for their own bodies; Democrats are allowing Planned Parenthood and Obamacare to hold a monopoly over the cash cow that is the unnecessary birth control pill prescription. Meanwhile, socially conservative Republicans obstruct measures that make birth control easier to access and afford.

    And the plot thickens: While moderate and liberal Republicans have tried to introduce bills to grant the birth control pill over-the-counter (OTC) status, Democrats have struck them down in order to not dismantle critical political gains of “free” birth control with Obamacare.

    While the birth control mandate was heralded by Democrats as one of the most liberating features of Obamacare for women, this could not be further from the truth. Holding the birth control pill hostage to Obamacare still shuts many women out of taking full control in an economic and politically empowering way over their reproductive lives. "

    .


    See, now how am I supposed to take the rest of your post seriously after such a silly statement that you got right off an anti-Choice website...





    HOW is PLANNED PARENTHOOD making it difficult for women to get birth control ???

    They aren't the ones trying to shut down their clinics, that would be REPUBLICANS.

    THEY aren't the ones denying birth control coverage in health insurance plans...that would be REPUBLICANS.







    Yup, so Repubs fight to shut down Planned Parenthood where women are helped in getting birth control....the Democrats are not and have not done that...


    So make up you mind who the "bad guys" are....


    AND, do NOT forget, women are under NO obligation to USE birth control

    Simple question. Do you think a women should have the right to buy birth control over the counter without having to get a prescription?

    No, I don't think it's a good idea because women are individuals and it is a drug (there are different BCs) and a doctor should be overseeing it...

    AND I think since it's health related it should be covered by ALL health insurance plans or it's blatant discrimination against women...


    NOW I addressed YOUR questions be polite (and honest) and address MINE!

    It is clearly stated in the article (by a pro choice women) I referenced. Forcing women to get birth control through their health plans and PP makes the cost of birth control more expensive. And giving women the choice of buying birth control without having to get a prescription cuts into PP's profit margin and reduces the number of abortions, which also cuts into PP's profit margin.

    Planned Parenthood doesn't profit from abortions.


    Forcing women to get birth control outside of their health plans makes the cost of birth control more expensive. And giving women the choice of buying birth control without having to get a prescription cuts into Big Pharma's profit margin .


    I would think you would want the number of abortions cut down......

    And 2 + 2 =5. You don't understand what the article is saying. And you don't think women should have the choice of buying birth control when they need it. And poor Cecile Richards is barely scrapping by on her one million dollar salary.
