No, sorry, sweetie. I work in family planning and have read tons and tons of articles and research about this. It doesn't promote unprotected sex, even for those in a long-term relationship, monogamous relationship when someone could argue ec could be used as birth control. I'm attaching an article. I don't know why I keep reading the answers on your question...it's making me spaz out. EC is the best thing that's happened in family planning in decades.

Not necessarily . Birth control is used for many things other than as a contraceptive . The other things, I believe do to some extent. Abortion and the morning after pill give the illusion of no chance of pregnancy to minors. I have no problem with birth control or the morning after pill for females 16 and up.. But I think there should be a age limit for abortion (even if most who have one are not minors) , age 18. Young girls keep being taught 'oh if you get pregnant , you can always get an abortion' or 'If you want to have sex, just use the pill'. The pill isn't 100% effective , and not everyone can have an abortion - some realize they want the baby . I think teen sex is glorified , and teen pregnancy has been constantly put down as of recently.

That's a difficult argument because you can't speak for others and what they would do. I know it wouldn't make me want to have more unprotected sex but that's because the thought of pregnancy scares the bagesus out of me. I'd definetly use the morning after pil if I thought I might need it but I wouldn't stop using condoms or other types of contraceptives.
I like the idea of morning after pills and I wish they would of been over the counter when I was in h.s. because usually I only had intercourse on Sundays when we hung out at his house and it would of been so easy to just swing by eckerds monday afternoon and get me a pack. I was very irresponsible about sex when I was younger.

you do have a leg to stand on because there are a lot of irresponsible women out there who think that now if they have unprotected sex they can just go out and take one pill to not become pregnant. on the other hand, there are also women out there who would want to take it if they were raped or those younger girls(who hit puberty)who also may have been raped or molested who may choose to take it. I really think that it's all on opinion, that's what makes this country so great. So, keep your opinion and don't let anyone change it. That's your opinion and your belief even if someone else doesnt agree. more power to you!

No!
Ignorance encourages unprotected sex! And horniness, of course... but mostly ignorance. Using the morning after pill as a regular method of contraception is dumb... it's really hard on your body and it doesn't protect against STD's (sexually transmitted diseases, for that European guy). However, it is a valuable resource for emergency situations... condom's break sometimes. Rape victims deserve the chance to protect themselves from pregnancy. Situations like that... not just for conveniance.
If we don't want kids to act in dumb ways, we need to educate them to act in smart ways... this seems like common sense!
Plus for those abstinence-only people out there... it doesn't work!! it's never worked!! give it up already!!!

No, I don't think so. If someone is going to have sex, they're going to have sex. The decision of whether or not to wait begins at home with parents teaching their kids values and also some wait for religious reasons. Everyone must make the choice for themselves. The MAP would not encourage me to have sex. If I want to, I will and if I don't (for whatever reason) I won't and having a pill available will not matter.
BTW, the MAP is not a form of abortion. It simply PREVENTS a pregnancy thus eliminating the possibility of abortion.

Hi!
Definitely YES. And definitely NO! If they have the pill, it's only partially protected, yet partially unprotected. It depends on what you are afraid of... pregnancy or disease, none of them pleasant, if you ask me.
Given some numbers, you may say that more women have unprotected sex, since the number of women, worldwide, is increasing, so...
There are other ways, too and it also depends on the partner...
Shocking question: What's STD? (I'm European)

I agree with you. I think Plan B is sending the wrong message to women. I think that it gives a signal to be super careless when it comes to sex. What about the rise in STD's? I oppose of Plan B, I think that life begins at conception. It wrong to do the deed and be careless and oooppps I may be pregnant, but it's ok because I have plan B?! Life begins at conception, if you are going to do the deed and not protect yourself, you deserve to be pregnant.

It does if the women and girls taking it don't know if the bad effects it has on the body and the menstrual cycle.
That is where sex education is supposed to come in.

Yes it does! This gives the impression to go ahead and have sex, they think, Oh yeah, it'll be fine and if i DO happen to get pregnant i can always go get the morning after pill. I say if your old enough to have sex, then your old enough to raise a baby.
