That's Not Morality, That's Sexism

NOW President Kim Gandy makes this claim as she writes in her column "Every time a doctor refuses to prescribe emergency contraception , and every time a pharmacist refuses to distribute it, and every time a member of Congress condones those refusals, women are denied the respect and dignity they deserve."

How true. If these so-called morality mongers truly believed this to be an issue of pre-marital, sinful sex that they are opposed to, then do they deny boys condoms? Do they ask for a marriage certificate for proof they are married? Do they require old men to prove their wives to be of child-bearing age since they believe that sex is for procreation only? And what if their wife is infertile? Do they have to prove fertility? If they practiced what they preached, infertile couples shouldn't be having sex. They should bolt shields over the genitals of infertile and aged couples.

But that's not what this is about. It is about controlling women, their choices and their reproduction. Read Below the Belt: That's Not Morality, That's Sexism.
