Now tagless for your comfort.

Is there a simple way to squash someone who is adamant that women should pay more for healthcare because they cost more for their lady problems (you know, like pregnancy and birth control)?

Tell them they need to call their mother so she can slap the shit out of them.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

It just seems as if they are saying that being born female is a pre-existing condition. I mean, that's what it's boiling down to, right?

Sports injuries. There was some study years ago based on Armed Forces that tried to total up the extra costs from female soldiers and found that volleyball injuries were among the highest categories of expenses.

I think that's the appropriate response, either that or get out, Get Out, GET OUT!

I can only assume said idiot thinks this is payback for young men paying higher auto insurance rates. But driving recklessly is a choice--unlike being born with a VAGINA.
