Plan B

Plan B is now being put into a vending machine in the USA on a college campus.

The vending machine is cheap and accessible only to students and staff of Shippensburg University, Pennsylvania, and is cheaper than on pharmacies. This makes the morning after pill readily available to all students!!!

Plan B is a pill taken after having unprotected sex (whether a condom broke, was never used, or the regular birth control pill was forgotten) and stops the egg from planting itself in the wall of the uterus. It can be taken up to 72 hours after, but is most effective when taken immediately.

What do you think about making Plan B so available?

A Visit From Aunt Flo(w).

Periods happen to every female (we hope) throughout life after puberty until menopause (hooray...not). Sometimes, we get really hormonal: cramps, crying, yelling at people for no reason, etc. Sometimes it's just a plain pain in the poon having to change tampons all the time (and remembering to do so!). Sometimes it's barely noticable. Whether the painters are in, the red sea is overflowing, or it's simply that special lady time, it's different for all of us!!

How do you feel about your period? (Guys, feel free to answer on behalf of any women you know)
