I have thoughts on the Plan B ruling this morning.
I will not discuss the age limit, because I have not formed an opinion on that.
However, having been in a situation where I took responsibility into my own hands, screwed up my courage, made the long echoing walk through the pharmacy to the counter, and was forced to repeat myself a number of times as to what I was requesting, to my burning shame, I find this ruling utterly repugnant.
I am an adult. I am taking the responsibility for my health and body in my own hands. I should not have to stand in front of anyone, feeling like I have to justify my actions.
My decisions are between me and my God, and trust me, he's tired of hearing from me.
So to rule that this rather innocuous drug be kept behind the counter, under lock and key, where on top of everything else, I'm forced to ask please may I have some of this potentially life-altering medication, oh please sir, makes my blood boil.
Let adult women take care of themselves like the responsible adults they are.
