I think in some instances that it may increase promiscuity among females who view it as just another form of birth control. However, if the price for the morning-after pills are the same over the counter as they are right now (around $30), then the expense alone may keep usage down. I just can't see someone forking over $30 on a regular basis for it -- most people don't have that kind of cash to throw around constantly. It adds up after awhile.
It's a tough call to make. I'm pro-choice (btw, I don't know anyone who is pro-abortion), and part of me says that this could be very helpful for women who find themselves in a difficult situation. However, I would hate to see it abused by someone who is just too lazy to use regular forms of birth control. But I guess those same people can abuse it now even though it's not over the counter. Like I said, tough call.
