to screw the American people.

Birth control stops conception.

Viagra begins conception.

I'm not a theologian, but I think Catholicism is against birth control.

Do I agree with any of this? No. But that's what the GOP will tell you. Pro-life blah blah blah.

Obviously, it's not god's will that you procreate if you need some secular, scientific boner assistant to do so. God designed your male reproductive system, and if it ain't workin, it must be his will.

I'm just spouting off their bs.

That would be because it's for men.

I mean, it's bad enough that women have all those icky parts, expecting men to pay for health care for them is just too much! If men don't need it, then it's unnecessary.

Yes, the assholes think just like this.

an illness that Viagra treats; stopping conception is not an illness.

Like polycystic ovarian disorder and other complications.

as well as have erections - to feel like men.

Oh, some will cloak it in religion/procreation blah blah blah bullshit but the real reason is the same one it always has been - men controlling women.

Yep. That's it.

The terrifying attitude under all of it is that women are possessions (of men) to be managed.

one or two of the oral contraceptives to indicate it is used to stop endometriosis or PCOS. Then every woman that needs it can have PCOS. Of course, then it becomes a pre-existing condition.

Besides, conservatives don't think there is any reason not to have babies, including fear of population growth. Idiot Walter Williams sees no issue with population growth at all. He doesn't see a relationship with climate change or that food can become scarce. He likes that more workers are available.

the answer to that question, right? This IS the Republican party we're talking about here.

ED drugs are not covered under Medicare because it is considered to be a lifestyle drug. It is a shame because men over 65 are the most likely to need it.

Women are worthless to Republicans except as "vessels" or maybe vassels. Take your pick.

To these men, women are just incubators. Women are not human. They are utilities. They are sexual & reproductive slaves. Slavery in only ONE form was outlawed years ago. But slavery is alive and will in the US of Ass - in very many different forms.

Here you go - this explains in detail what's behind it. It's long but worth the read (keep this bookmarked, share it whenever and wherever you can):

Reproductive Rights and the Long Hand of Slave Breeding
The pursuit of reproductive freedom and civil freedom need to be seen as one and the same.
