Morning-after pill approved as non-prescription (Canada)

Good news. Now they don't have to worry about assholes not filling their prescriptions for "moral" reasons.  If you can't fill people's prescriptions for "moral" reasons, find a new job. If you were a hardcore vegan, you couldn't expect to not serve people meat if you worked at McDonalds.

This is not something we want to encourage guys.  What kind of sick male would want women to put out LESS?!

One who doesn't want to get STDs or unwanted pregnancies or degrade random women?  You're so sexist, opebo, you act like all women are here for is to screw you.

The kind of male that sees women as more than three holes.
