The Birth Control Controversy - 3 Takeaways

1. The unspoken attitude in all of this is that any woman that uses birth control is somehow a slut and that they need to be punished or controlled because of it.

2. Letting someone’s boss decide whether or not they have birth control coverage is stupid.

3. If the catholic priests really gave a shit about “sexual morality” – then they should stop molesting boys and covering it up.

Why should anyone give a flying FUCK what supposedly "celibate" old men think of contraception? ENOUGH ALREADY.

about what the Catholic church thinks. First, there is that whole sexual abuse of minors thing which kind of takes them out of the morality game and second, even Catholics don't care what priests think about birth control. All the married Catholics I know have two children just like me and we didn't keep the numbers down with abstinence, I can tell you.

Let's ask Mr. Target if his religion is opposed to BC, as that one Catholic Bishop talked about working at Target.
