Women should get free birth control, panel says

[agzg]

I don't take hormonal birth control for several reasons, so it's a little more "equal" between live-in and I on who buys the condoms, but it does irk me that in a lot of ways guys see the pill as the woman's business, while reaping all the benefits of having a relationship with a woman on the pill.

ETA: I would agree with you somewhat, DrPhil, but in this case, it seems like she's really having a hard time scraping together the money for the copay. Of course, my threat would be "help me or I'm out" with a follow-through, but I don't pretend to know what works in all relationships. I think if I were on hormonal birth control and in a serious relationship, it would be a dealbreaker for me.
