This has nothing to do with theatre

BUT IT'S STILL IMPORTANT. This Kansas governor signed a bill that can allow pharmacists and doctors the RIGHT TO DENY women birth control. This is just wrong! It is unsafe and not healthy and giving power to the wrong people. Seriously, a pharmacist can refuse to fill a woman's prescription for birth control if it goes against their religion! Not the woman's religion, the pharmacists religion! I personally view this bill as an attack on women, some probably don't, but I do. It pisses me off when it is just assumed that birth control is only used to have sex. Some of us use it for medical reasons. In fact, birth control is always used for medical reasons because if you get preggo that involves a lot of medicine and a lot of hospital time. Anyways, here's the article if you want to read it yourself: http://www.addictinginfo.org/2012/05/15/kansas/

I want to tell all of the men in government who have panels about birth control without any women present, or are making laws to limit women's choices, or deny them access to medicine they are paying for, or making false assumptions just to scare people: STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO WITH MY VAGINA.
