In an effort to temporarily get away from the XX vs. XY jibber jabber, I’ve decided to shift to a much more pressing topic (Thanks Cup). A 2 sided topic that is pretty hard to talk about. Yes, I am referring to Viagra and birth control availability. More so, the fact that health insurance companies will approve and cover Viagra in medical plans, but will not do the same for birth control. In a recent interview, John McCain was asked about his stance on the topic after some comments were made by one of his biggest female supporters (The woman who used to head HP). Given that he is probably a huge advocate of Viagra and most likely not a huge advocate of “Pro Choice”, he quickly stiffened up before deciding that he wasn’t going to answer any questions about his affinity for Viagra or disdain for birth control and non-contractual loving (pre-marital pumps…and I ain’t talkin’ shoes or air). Its probably safe to say he wishes he could stiffen up that quickly in his love life. Age catches up with you John. You probably won’t see Barack on those commercials for a few years, given that his wife looks happy and vibrant on television. You know, kind of like the dude and his wife in those Enzyte male enhancement commercials that seem to have disappeared from television for a little while? Anyways John, try to stop being so rigid when you’re asked about one of your many medications. You’ve endorsed it before. Check out the video below to see him struggle.

I, along with 98% of men between the ages of 18 and 25 with full functionality, support the usage of birth control and believe it should be covered by health insurance companies. It’s a proactive and preventive treatment option for a condition that when contracted will last for 9 months and cost a hell of a lot of money and headaches going forward. Would the condom market soften up like rest of the economy? Probably not. Would the long straight line at Planned Parenthood go limp? Most likely. Will the number of men telling their female counterparts they don’t need to wear protection because she responsibly takes her BC increase? Definitely. Slim Jackson excluded of course, because I practice abstinence and not because I’m ugly.
