7. The sad thing is that many of the "buy rubbers" people are married to a woman.

they tend to have a wife with a vagina, and a uterus and ovaries.
They tend to have an adult daughter. A daughter with a vagina and a uterus and ovaries.

Which goes back to the feeling that it's not an issue of not knowing. It's an issue of NOT CARING.

It's about having deeply held beliefs that dirty girls use birth control. Clean girls don't. Birth control is for fucking, and good girls don't fuck. Therefore, who cares what pills a whore needs, because who cares about whores and their needs?

That's the only explanation. Callous disregard for the needs of 52% of the population. He was born from one (ew yucky! vagina!), and is married to one, and has participated in the creation of one. But he doesn't care about them. Not one whit. Otherwise, he wouldn't have THOUGHT (much less said, and defended repeatedly) the 'go to the 7/11 and buy rubbers" comment.

People who say that are like Rush Limbaugh. Women "problems" means vagina "problems" and we all know the only problem a vagina has is not getting enough winkie. heh heh heh. Chuckle chuckle chuckle.
