I've seen this in a couple of other journals and just can't believe a woman's right to make decisions about her own body is being so completely ignored.

Access Denied: Find out why growing numbers of doctors and pharmacists across the US are refusing to prescribe or dispense birth control pills

I've had that problem. I was on the Pill for a couple of years for a medical problem (pregnancy is totally not an issue for me), and if I had the money, I should be on it again, in fact. And I still had a doctor not want to give me the prescription because he was ethically opposed to birth control. (Me: "Uh, lesbian. Also not having sex with anyone.")

This is just frightening. Not just because of the Pill, but the implications it represents. How far will it go? Will pharmacists/doctors stop distributing/prescribing medication on the belief that it interferes with the human body for any reason?

And where the hell do they get off on imposing their moral beliefs on others? If you don't believe in it's use, fair enough, but you have no right to enforce your belief on others.
