FDA OKs nonprescription ‘morning-after’ pill

I'm more than a little on the Pro-Choice side of things- for those that didn't know. To mis-quote a familiar line- let's have every child be a wanted child. So along those lines, I think this is very good news for American women.

*sigh* yeah, recalling past experiences, don't get me started about welfare whores.

Not to gross anyone out, but why would someone want to have sex with a yeast infection? The guy can get the yeast infection, too, and lemme put it this way: it wasn't that appealing to me when I got one.

Because some people have more hormones than brains apparently. I don't know why any woman would want to have sex during a yeast infection (the itching and burning probably don't add to the pleasure...). However, some late teens seem to think that abstaining for a couple days is just too much to ask... Oi.
