Yea, I know.
Jan. 18th, 2009 03:25 pmI am breaking my pretty much never post streak. But, I think everyone should know about this story.
To this day, it still surprizes me that there can be such fundamentalist views on what a woman's choice is, and how someone can force their completely wrong birth control choices upon someone. I hope that with the more liberal federal administration we will see this sanctioned much less. It sounds like this nurse has done this more than once. Women everywhere should be outraged.
A clinic nurse first removed her intrauterine birth-control device without permission, says the patient in a federal action, then told her that "having the IUD come out was a good thing," because "I personally do not like IUDs. I feel they are a type of abortion. I don't know how you feel about abortion, but I am against them."
