something i've been pondering for a while now

[rkt]

maybe one of youse can help me out:

how can i reasonably expect plan b to become available over the counter in this fine country of the u s of a, when i can't even buy sudafed (and its generics) without assistance from the pharmacist?

(no pharmacist? no sudafed. ... unless i go to the bodega. but that's beside the point. nobody who's going to be making meth would ever shop at a bodega.)

just askin'.

Hi! I'm Holly. The reason I am actually commenting because I recently requested to be added to the 'feminist' community, which you seem to be a moderator of and though my journal is new, and I haven't gone on many rants yet, I'd like you guys to know, though, that I used to be a member of feminist with my old journal, grapefruitvodka.

The reason I'm commenting on this post is, however, I'm a Canadian, though I'm currently in Europe, and had always been a plan B over the counter advocate. I'd taken it when perscribed by a doctor, and revoiced when it became over the counter in Canada. However, when presented with the opportunity to take Plan B over the counter, the third degree I recieved including personal questions about my sex life/relationship/ relationship with my parents (and I'm 21) made me yearn for the days when I could have a chat with my cool feminist doctor and walk out with my Plan B and some extra condoms. Just a sad little thought.

that's a horrible experience to endure. was there no higher-board to whom you could complain? while it's meaningless after the fact, maybe someone else could be spared that idiocy.

also, in the future, please direct all community-related concerns via email. i won't always be so pleasant.

Sorry about that, I absolutely will.

And I did complain, several time, but try getting a response from a huge drugstore corporation. Hopefully someone heard them.
