Is male potency important than preventing pregnancy?
"If men could get pregnant," said pioneering feminist Flo Kennedy, "abortion would be a sacrament." The same sentiment is revealed in the way the nation's health insurers are treating the advent of Viagra, Pfizer's new wonder drug. As soon as it hit the market, many insurers rushed to include it in their programs as a cure for the medical problem of male impotence. By May 1, almost half of all Viagra prescriptions were covered by insurers.
Women seeking to avoid becoming pregnant by their Viagra-popping partners may not be so fortunate. Almost 40 years after the introduction of the Pill, only 15 percent of traditional indemnity insurance plans cover all five of the most common reversible contraceptives--the Pill, diaphragm, IUD, Norplant, and Depo-Provera.
That just makes my blood boil. I'm sure it has to do with the whole plant your seed, so society can survive ideal. Which makes me feel reassured when we have thousands of children who are beaten, starving or uneducated on a daily basis. Grr.

Check the government bit. Still think they are fuckwads, but meant to say "insurance companies."
