On this episode of Reality Cast, a lawyer from the Center for Reproductive Rights explains the latest developments in the fight to make Plan B available over-the-counter without age restrictions, anti-choicers react to the new Plan B regulations, and unsurprisingly they freak out over President Obama’s talk at Planned Parenthood.
Continuing to fight science and common sense on Plan B isn’t serving anyone’s interests. Pro-choicers are mad, anti-choicers aren’t placated, and women are hurt in the process. So why does the Obama administration insist on keeping up this pointless fight?
Isn’t It Time We Stopped Playing Politics With Contraception?
Contraception is basic preventive health care for women—a simple truth that is too often lost in our political discourse.

There’s a chance that family physicians will stop getting proper training in contraception in some programs, and a Lifetime reality show demonstrates the dangers facing girls with virginity-obsessed parents.
The Obama administration’s newest plan to make emergency contraception over-the-counter to some groups and not others only creates more confusion and a new set of barriers to access. I guess this administration would rather play Russian Roulette with teen pregnancy than make it easier to prevent.
In a dismaying move, the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) has proposed changes to the guidelines for family medicine residency programs removing the requirement that residents learn to provide contraception.
Ohio anti-choicers would rather that women get misinformation than real reproductive health care.
Want a Birth Control That’s As Sexy As You Are?
This hilarious SNL skit highlights absurd marketing techniques aimed at women while underscoring the lack of regard for women’s birth control and the lack of emphasis on women’s comfort in today’s society – even when it comes to things being inserted inside of women’s vaginas.
