That is not fair to the women, seriously. Not all girls are on birth control because they are trying to not get pregnant, for some it is other medical issues. Some girls are irregular and birth control helps fix that. Its not her fault, its not anything that she can control. So why should her boss be able to control it? The cost for everything now is so expensive, I think that employers should want to help their employee’s, not make things worse.

I use birth control to moderate my periods, not cause I actually need control against unwanted pregnancy.

That being said, I respect people’s religions and I think birth control is a benefit, NOT A RIGHT. I pay for mine, and you can get it for fairly cheap if you look for the right brand from the right outlet. Your insurance may even pay for it. But no one should make anyone go against their own religion, faith, or morals in order to make YOUR life easier. It’s selfish. These are the same people who think handouts are great and that working is for chumps. What’s ridiculous is that we live in a country that says everyone should have birth control, and if that fails, well abortions are fine too. In fact, don’t like what gender your baby is gonna be? Fine, abort the baby and try again for the right gender. What a sick place.

No not almost EVERY woman. And for the opinion of people are hateful, think about it, she’s on a worldwide televised “real” life show. EVERYONE is open to have an opinion about her life and lack of responsibility she shows, she put it out there for everyone to watch and agree with or criticize. If she didn’t want public backlash, she shouldn’t have been on a show that allows for it.

BTW my university is suing the Obama administration because they do not accept his compromise on the issue– they don’t believe that employers should have to pay for their employees birth control.

Again, free clinics are there for a reason.

I got to one of the universities which is in the process of suing the Obama administration over this. I fully support my university’s decision and beliefs (if I didn’t, I wouldn’t be going here), and would just like to point out that there are a lot of other options for free birth control besides insurance companies. Free clinics are there for a reason people.

ITS YOUR BODY! if you don’t want to have kids, you should be allowed to make that choice. Sex is a normal human experience, you shouldn’t have it just to have kids. this is 2012! people should be allowed to make their own decisions, not have their boss make it for them. women have been working for years to be able to make their own decisions, don’t throw that all away because you don’t agree with birth control. YOU DON’T AGREE WITH BIRTH CONTROL YOU DON’T USE IT! don’t you dare take that right away from someone else. shouldn’t you be too busy making your own decisions to make other peoples?

Here’s what I think. I think this is scary. While I agree it’s good to be able to not be forced to pay for somones contraceptives…if you’re an insurance company, then you’re getting paid to ensure a person’s well being. We’re not in an ideal world, girls have sex. The majority of us are not in the Middle East, where there’s secret police to make sure we keep our legs “crossed”; and even then, THAT doesn’t even work. If you’re paying to have your health taken care of by an insurance company, then they should be able to handle taking care of birth control, because being pregnant isn’t what most girls, especially young ones need, so by doing this they’re ensuring their clients’ well being (mental health counts too, you know). Here’s another thing, I’m religious, but I know if someone’s going to have sex, nothing I say will do anything to stop it. I can try to stop them by having a conversation with them, but ultimately, they’ll do what they want to. But you know what I can make sure to do as a buisness person, who is religious? Help ensure that another unplanned pregnancy is prevented. Because what child deserves a parent who struggles financially, who is mentally incapable of being a parent at that point in their life, or -God forbib- a parent who doesn’t WANT them? Regardless of what the Bible says, or what you believe, if you deny that person birthcontrol, and they can’t afford it, so they end up getting knocked up, that life that child recieves as a result is something you’ll know you could have helped prevent. And it’s true, that regardless the life that that child recieves is predominantly the parent’s fault, the thing is that you could have done something to prevent it, and you didn’t, simply because you believed that by refusing them contraceptives you’d somehow change your employee’s mind about being sexually active, or glorify God. How about you try and prevent the tragedy that is the unwanted child, and potentially save that child a world of pain? By taking account those could-be lives, in my opinion, you’re being a Christian, or Muslim, or Jew, or what ever the hell you are.
