Seriously? They straight-up stated in the video that the age that girls are getting their periods is not getting lower, but that the age of puberty onset (breast development) is. Ugh and a half. I mean, it's an important issue to discuss, but careless errors (or intentional attention-grabbing mistakes) like this title…

Amen! Seriously, I think I might be slightly concussed from all of the facepalming I just did.

And why is it pitted against oral? Oral is generally pleasant. That doesn't seem like a fair match-up.

There couldn't be a better reason to be destarred. I only came back to this page to see if they've taken the photos down; evidently they haven't. I emailed Anna North and got no response, but I hoped (but didn't expect) that they would actually listen to their readership. Nope! Pixelate the images beyond recognition,…

I don't understand why it seems like you're so adamantly arguing against me, when all I was trying to respond to was the point stated in the article that the school might be legally required to remove the vending machine if a student under 17 enrolls—and my point was that it's not unlikely that a student under 17 does…

You're so modest. I could really go for a million dollars right now.

I was just wondering. Yeah, me too actually. I'm so sick of this man-stealing, baby-hungry drama that has clearly been concocted, or at least highly dramatized, by tabloids.

I'm pretty sure it's pronounced like ick-kid.

Which couple are you referring to? Jen and Brad?

Also: I just wanted to add, for everyone to know, that my (female) gyno's name is Dr. Wiener because I find this hilarious.

Oh okay. Good to know. The side effects of the pill are minimal on me now. Initially I had pretty bad morning sickness a few days a week, but that went away after about six weeks, and now I feel the same as I did before I was on it. I've been thinking about Implanon though, just because of how worry-free it would be.…

Okay thank you. I'll talk to my doctor just to be sure, but that's reassuring. I was aware that the Pill works in other ways, but I'd still prefer, uh, not to be ovulating at all right now because that makes me nervous. Is there any way that I could just be having some ovulation-like ovary pain for no reason at all?…

Thanks for your input. I'm pretty sure don't have endometriosis actually. The pain doesn't have to do with my menstrual cycle, and it's more dull, nagging cramping than anything. I actually barely get any menstrual pain, on or off the Pill—just some aching in my lower back that goes away with a round of ibuprofen. I'm…

"Except if a student enrolls next year who's under 17. At that point, the school would probably legally have to remove the machine — possibly leading to backlash against that one poor teen."

I started college like a month and a half after I turned 17, so that's a real concern for the school legally. I'd also be concerned if the university is purposefully denying younger eligible students, on that basis alone. The vending machine is great in theory—probably more privacy, and easy access to Plan B. Like…

Yeah. I wasn't understanding some of the semantics there. I'm still kind of hazy, but I get that there is a bigger issue here.

Not only that, but somewhere along the line, word got out that there is a small chance that birth control works by not only preventing ovulation, but also preventing the implantation of a fertilized egg in the rare case that ovulation does occur. And since a zygote is apparently a human, or something (despite the fact…

Well, they can teach, they're just being transferred. Not trying to justify it here, but it does make a little bit of a difference. It's a shame that the good ones who care about their students' welfare are being uprooted, though. I think it's temporary and just to investigate if any of the teachers knew anything and…

Wait, WHAT? Is this a reference I'm not getting, or is it something really awful? Because please tell me...just #no.

I'm so sorry that that happened to you! I hope everything's better with your health now. Why did you have to switch from the Pill? Or was that just a personal choice?
