Most Women are in Favor of Making Birth Control Pills Available Over the Counter without a Prescription if Research Shows they are Safe and Effective | KFF (Me: But rightwing politicos and rightwing judges do not care what you think or want… vote accordingly…)

A new KFF survey finds that more than three-quarters (77%) of females ages 18-49 favor making birth control pills available without a doctor’s prescription if research shows they are safe and effective. Among those who favor making birth control pills available over the counter and who currently use prescription oral contraception, 60% say they would be likely to use over-the-counter birth control pills. Most say the main reason is convenience (59%).

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

A vida é uma brevidade. Contudo, o nosso maior desperdício é a expectativa sobre o amanhã. Você renúncia àquilo que tem hoje, para depender de uma incerteza. É um desperdício consciente, obviamente. Pois, diante do presente, lança fora algo que poderia tirar algum benefício, em prol do que contempla sem nenhuma garantia. Mas, quando sente que a vida vai tardando tudo àquilo que queria, simplesmente, foge para ir de encontro ao que renunciou. Moral da história: Às vezes a vida se resume nesse transitar de ” idas e vindas” com poucas realizações e muitas expectativas. Estas quando não realizadas, lentamente, asfixia os nossos sonhos na velocidade do tempo.

If you live in Oklahoma, please vote for Joy for governor!

Former Republican Rep. J.C. Watts (Okla.) has bucked his party to endorse Democrat Joy Hofmeister in her challenge to Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R).

“I was a Republican then, and I’m a Republican now, and, friends, I’m voting for Joy Hofmeister,” Watts says in a new ad.

“All this scandal and corruption is just too much. Joy is a woman of faith and integrity. She’ll always put Oklahoma first. I know Joy personally, and I trust her, and you can too,” the former Oklahoma congressman said.

Hofmeister was elected Oklahoma’s…
