I don't think anyone questions what is done overseas...my impression from Grace's post is that it shows up even MORE how unfairly sexual medications are handled at home.

Doesn't that just fry you. Our Federal Government is only too happy to dispense Viagra for men, but if a woman needs access to birth control . . . . . forget about it.

EDIT:

I remember some 40 years ago when the State of Connecticut would not allow doctors to prescribe any form of birth control for married couples. Fortunately that was resolved in 1965, by the U.S. Supreme Court in Griswold v. Connecticut. Maybe we need to do it again.
