    This is the stupidest thing ever.

    For years we’ve been trying to convince people to not overuse antibiotic, and now they’re just tossing that aside.

      I think it could be very useful, such as for sexual assault victims, but maybe purchase should be tracked similar to Sudafed?

    I hope people don’t start using it as a substitute for safe sex, regular testing, and honest communication. We already have an antibiotic-resistant bacteria problem. Making it even worse would be bad.

    Until Republicans find out and push to get it banned because of ‘god’s will’ or some nonsense…

      This will also be helpful for sexual assault victims.

        not fucking is 100% effective at preventing pregnancy

          I don’t really pay attention to usernames but I’m starting to notice yours. You usually have the worst take in the political and geopolitics threads I see. Now you’re here, on a decent discussion about sexual health and antibiotic resistance, advocating abstinence and making a frankly weird comment.

          I don’t know why I felt like now was the time but what’s your deal anyway?

            The temptation to move from the stink to the pink… which is actually a bad idea without washing up first.
