re: #2 calochortus

I totally do not understand this age restriction thing. Who in the administration/FDA hierarchy is pushing for it?

No clue. I just want to shake anyone who really thinks a young girl is going to go to the pharmacy counter and ask for Plan B if she doesn’t really need it.

I’ve worked a drug store, kids don’t talk to anyone about that stuff. Hell, even getting grown women to ask about vaginal yeast cream is impossible—even when they are obviously confused by the myriad of product out there and need your help.

Kids are too embarrassed to buy condoms —most of them get stolen because of it. I always figured, at least they are using them. I mean, one condom is stolen out of a box, I figure it was needed.
