1. Just saw this. It's so appropriate. n/t

2. But don't compare contraception with erectile dysfuntion drugs

Some DU menbers think such comparisons do nothing to further the so-called discussion.*

*It's difficult to refer to call an all-male panel on women's health a discussion, debate, dialogue, or any other form of two-way communication.

3. Women take birth control for medical issues that are just as important as erectile dysfunction..

Many women take the pill to help regulate and relieve debilitating pain. There are others, but this example should show that this video has showcased how the two compare in the outrages one sided panel created by an all male opinion...

4. Totally agree! I'd even go further to say that the debilitating physical pain that

contraceptives help to alleviate in women is more beneficial to society than alleviating the non-physical discomfort caused by erectile dysfunction.

5. Ok.... I wasn't sure if that was understood.... I find some people think of birth control as a pill

to protect from unwanted pregnancies only....
