Through the miracle of federally- and state-funded clinics, I was able to continue to get my prescription for the pill.

I say "miracle" even though birth control shouldn't feel like a miracle. Birth control is healthcare. That's all.

I accidentally took an Advil few years after all this started. Turns out I'm allergic to a specific synthetic dye. It wasn't the NSAIDS.

So I transitioned off the pill, now use NSAIDS again for my horrible cramps. But I'm grateful for having access to the pill for those years.

Do I want a special birth control exemption for women who can't take NSAIDS? No. We're not special.

Birth control should be available to any person that wants it, whenever they want it. For heterosexual sex. Or not. Even if they're poor.

The idea that if you can't afford birth control you shouldn't be having sex is so fucking absurd to me.

Having heterosexual sex shouldn't be contingent on your wealth bracket. Not to mention some of us use the pill for other reasons.
