Viagra vs. The Pill

Political noise:  news article after news article and conservative pundit after conservative politician ranting about the evils of birth control. 

what eye thynk:  Why is it that it's okay for health insurers to pay for Viagra but not okay for those same health insurers to pay for birth control pills?  What makes "their" pill a medical necessity and "my" pill evil?     Beyond stopping pregnancy, birth control pills are used to treat other female problems.   What else does Viagra do?   

Unfair as the whole issue is, sometimes you just gotta laugh.  Can't you just see a Monty Python world where women live in abstinence and Viagra amped men run around looking for relief? It would serve them right!
