You're right that there are non-hormonal BC options too, but honestly, the variety in really effective, long-term birth control is pretty small. If you're sensitive to the artificial hormones (which are basically the same in all HBC methods) and also need a reversible fertility control method with a very low…

First, if any doctor has ever tricked you into going on the pill, you should report them to the state's medical board.

I'm glad you've found something that works for you. You'll note that I never tried to foist hormonal BC onto women it doesn't work for. But I also don't think hormonal BC is some evil contraption invented by pharmaceutical companies to make us all emotional and unstable. I think it doesn't work for some women, and…

Oklahomas hottest new bar is called Fifty Shades of Gary! Located in a Quasar near Marigold Lane, this watering hole has everything! When you enter, be sure to hand your coat to the backwards talking midget from Twin Peaks, who accepts all major Jelly Beans. Playing Tuesdays at 10:00 am is The Kule Cluck Plan, Gary's…

Fuck off, MRA troll. All MRAs are pathetic losers. Fact.

Show me one MRA blog or website that isn't full of psychos. There are tons of feminist websites that are evenhanded and fair, and demand that all people regardless of gender be treated equally.

Shit floats. :)

Where are the mods today? This comment section is horrible. Christ.

Yes, I saw it on my facebook feed, she's a friend of a friend. :-)
I just looked at the twitter feed for #HowSeattleRiots and there are dozens of posts about the Pergola repair!

Yes, and this is *so* very #HowSeattleRiots

Ugh, it rained last Wednesday; I know because my husband and I got fucking soaked coming back from the dentist and it took three days for our hoodies to dry out.

Oh shoot! I went to Quincy. The internet sure is a small world.

It's not as bad here in Spokane as it used to be, but it's still very much present as you could see when our esteemed Representative gave the Repub's response to the State of the Union speech. We even managed to whip up protesters when a new bar decided to name one of their drinks "Date Grape".

Problem with that side is the Jesus fever in everyone's eyes. I grew up in Ephrata and boy howdy was it a bit shocking to go back as an adult.

Lindy, don't worry. MLS play starts up soon, so Seattle will quickly return to loserville status. ;)

Where are you even getting 2%?

99% of women who didn't see the ultrasound went through with it.
98.4% of the women who saw the ultrasound went through with it.

Difference of .6%

1% of women seem to not go through with the abortion (at the clinic, on that day) REGARDLESS of whether they see the ultrasound or not.

Using the…

I think "lives saved" is not the correct term. It is true that using your extrapolation those 311 people are now alive that might not have been (without a proper control group it's hard to say whether the ultrasound really helped sway the already wavering women) but you are implying that the other 98% of people were…

You have no way of knowing 2 things:

The Doctor is meant to creep you out. He's not supposed to be sexy.
