Men only have to pay, like $5 for birth control but women have to pay $200/month

If men want to go to the drug store and spend less than $20 for birth control, they can do so. A woman has to visit her doctor ($90-150) and get a prescription ($200/month) for birth control.
quoted from a poster in the comments section of a cnn article about the upcoming SCOTUS ruling.
Why do people think this is any kind of valid point?
Can't women also buy condoms and provide it for their partner?

She must be talking about the pill that comes with a bottle of champagne and is gold plated.

That's weird, I'm pretty sure my SO pays around $10 a month for her BC.
It does not, however, include a bottle champagne.

She should have been called out on it.
She wasn't. BCPs are not a suitable sexual adjunct in instances of nonmonogamous sex. Sorry.
Not only can the woman buy condoms, she should buy condoms! If she doesn't buy them, in a day-and-age of HIV, herpes, hepatitis, etc., she is an abject moron.

It really is just this simple.

Bc people are fricking stupid... Seriously, I don't see how 75% of Americans get through their daily lives.
Its sad that I know more about the truth in regards to BC than this person...
Your insurance, whether they cover bc or not, would cover your trip to the doc to get a prescription (That is once every 6 mo or a year). Secondly, you can buy generic BC without insurance for less than $30/mo
Its fricking sad that people think BC is a right and something that they should get for free.

or abstain/masturbate, if finances are an issue?
*ETA: that's just abstaining from intercourse, and mostly intercourse with orgasm in her (with no condom). a condom + pulling out is super effective (but not 100%)

Is this what happens when you teach women to hate themselves?

Wait, I thought Obamacare made birth control free?

It's very easy to stop a woman from having sex. Marry her.

Yeah but that makes them feel like sluts. We need to protect women's feelings.

My FB feed is blowing up with angry women. It's ridiculous. It's not like there are no choices here. If you don't take BC, you can use condoms, which are OTC. If you absolutely want to have your employer pay for BC benefits, then don't work for a company with a moral objection. I don't get why this is such a huge deal. And I'm pro choice. I see a lot of choices here.

Well, they don't have to purchase BC, so their premise is kinda dumb.

Not to mention that keeping condoms in your wallet has been shown to ruin their integrity. A purse would be a better carrying location.
I really don't even understand why this has become an issue.

True, but only once a year

da fug are they taking? Even if not covered by insurance, my BCP are $50 a month.
If the $20 for condoms or whatever inflated $$ are too much for people to pay and they don't want to get pregnant, they can always abstain.

I've got news for these geniuses.
A woman goes for an yearly exam. Or she should, you know to check for things like Ovarian, Uterine, and Breast cancer. This ruling has nothing to do with the cost of a doctor's visit, since prescription BC is so strong, you HAVE to have a script for it.

Men are statistically much less likely to get pregnant. Fact.
