Dear Republican Men, Over the past few weeks, many of you have come forward to announce your deep displeasure with the idea of paying for insurance that covers birth control, mammograms, maternity care, pre-natal care, etc. etc. The big idea now these days, for many on the Right, is insurance where you only pay for the insurance you personally need, for yourself. Only for the things you personally benefit from.
HA! Very interesting!! Don't ferget to sterilize it first. Wouldn't want any infections. Oh, wait ..............................................................
Who are you to say what is "living right" and how people should spend their money? Do you never drink alcohol, never eat refined sugar, never eat saturated fats? Do you exercise daily? Are you overweight by more than 10 pounds? Do you drive a car? Has your DNA been tested for all inherited conditions such as Huntington’s disease and cystic fibrosis?
How would you feel if they charged you 50% more for health insurance if you answered "yes" to any of those questions?
They found one in my test. They removed it. I felt nothing, and neither did my mind, then or now. Polyps are normal after age 50, and the vast majority of them are harmless. Why should this worry me? There are too many other things to worry about in life that I have no control over, like drunk drivers, and living in Trumpistan.
I'm sorry your colonoscopy hurt. I personally would rather experience mild to moderate pain than have general anesthesia, but that is a personal choice. Not everyone has the same tolerance for pain, which is something I did not know until I was about 40. I have often wondered why that is so.
I hear ya. I always try to convince the oldz in my neighborhood that they benefit from paying school taxes, even if they don't have kids in school any longer. But it appears they don't mind if the people who work in their doctors' offices are illiterate.
It's not generally covered by Medicare, so maybe not?
One of us. One of us.
well, I do have this left-over 10 foot 3/4 inch dowel that could be turned to use for that! So happy to help!
This is beautifully put.
Now that's an interesting idea. Sounds like a plan!
The parents of those who object to school taxes should demand a rebate. Obviousley the education did not work.

Frank Zappa died of prostate cancer. That's as good a reason as any to care about men's health issues.
Nah, if one gets broke they just get another one. Younger.
Thank you Robin. This was an awesome post.
