And thanks to thorninthefoot for passing it on!

Many Planned Parenthood clinics are giving out FREE doses of Plan B emergency contraception tomorrow. Here's the link for Massachusetts information:

If you're not in the Massachusetts area, look up your local Planned Parenthood for more info.

This is a good thing to have around, just in case.

oh yeah,
and a good thing to support for all the people who dont know they need it, dont know they ever could need it, or are too scared to go alone.

Not something i thought much about needing around... i admit... until i remembered how many of my friends had been raped, and for various reasons wouldnt file charges. now i plan on having some in house in case a friend needs it.

Yeah. Personally, I should have it on hand even though I'm on hormonal BC anyway. It can't hurt, and hey, it might help someone else other than me.

yeah,
given the current mess for anyone tryng to get it when they NEED it, it just is plain simple solidarity for those of us who can get it, to have some on hand....
its much like anything else... when you are having problems, not thinking straight, and desperate... is when you find out how you have to jump through hoops and think really well to get the help you need.
doesnt matter whether you are talking credit, pregnancy, or first aid.

Very good thing to have on hand. I don't think I can use it myself (the whole migraine-stroke risk thing is a major bummer) but after reading about how crappy it is in other states for women--especially rape victims--to find Plan B when they really need it, I'm kinda feeling a little big-sisterly. Ain't nobody stepping on girls in MY tribe if I can help it, dammit.
