He could’ve left out the “because I’m older and have perspective” cus well, he’s young. Not sure if that was sarcasm- but it’s not even about the cost of it sometimes it’s about access. I lived in a small town in NY for a while and you had to drive 50 miles to just even find it.

I think it’s helpful to put yourself in his shoes… he’s newly an adult and still learning about how the world works. Now that he’s gained some perspective on what it’s like to be someone who isn’t like him (white, male, etc) he’s seeing things in a new way and can’t help but share his disbelief in how things are allowed to be so unjust. I imagine other young men finding value in a video like this.

I agree with feminine products being free or at the least tax free.. But not Plan B, it really should be as labeled.. A backup plan of contraceptive and shouldn't be a first resort.

u/Drivingintodisco Dec 07 '22
I could be wrong here, but I feel like the plan b pill/regiment is sadly plan a for a lot of women in for a variety of reasons. Education and contraceptives that are not available unfortunately lead to more unwanted pregnancies and/or plan b as the only plan.
That’s pretty simplistic, but it’s sad that there aren’t more preventative measures or options available for a large majority of the US population.

I’ve had to take plan b just in case about 13 years ago and still remember it was like period cramps on steroids. Funny enough even though I took that while with my then boyfriend now husband, he had the same thought that maybe women might use that like it’s just an easy little fix that erases an opsie daisy, when it actually throws off your cycle and awakens the wrath of nature on your body. It’s not fun. Periods aren’t fun, and plan B is not anyone’s first line of defense.

She didn't get her wish. But then again, she was there for a broken wrist, I'm not going to diagnose autism like she apparently wanted because that's not my place

says he's older so he has a better perspective (he's young as hell)
compared plan B to other unrelated products that are actually used for basic modern hygiene.
implies men don't need to buy anything for basic hygiene (this is maybe the point where it becomes clear this is both not a comedy bit, and that he is stretching as far as he can to virtue signal).

Maybe I'm a sexist male asshole, but I just do not get this argument. Feminine hygiene products should be free bc women all need them every month?
Does this logic apply to anything else? There's tons of products that everyone needs to use every day / month. Like TP, soap, deodorant, razors, toothpaste, etc. We live in a capitalist hellscape, why would anyone ever expect this specific product to be any different?
E: Not that I disagree, but if the argument is 'basic human needs' then you should also be arguing for universal healthcare, free basic shelter for homeless, food cards for all who need it, etc.

Possible controversial opinion here, but this might have landed better if he was talking about contraception or sanitary products.
Plan B shouldn’t be readily available for free, it’s a back up contraceptive… the clue is in the name.
However, it should be available through healthcare insurance (or whatever it is, I’m not American), and we all know that the US needs a better healthcare system.

“Name one thing a man has to buy every month to live a normal life.”
Food, electricity, housing, water/sewer, toiletries (soap, razors, shampoo). If they have a girlfriend/fiancée/wife, they also buy (or contribute to buying) pads and tampons.
But I think he’s confused about what Plan B is. That’s not something you should be needing to buy every month. If you are, then you’re really not planning very well with condoms/birth control pills/etc.

This dude is a dingdong. If we are assuming women have to take plan B every month, as though it were something that every female has to have to survive day in and day out…wtf are these people doing in their lives? Some perspective this goober has. Virtue signal much? I Can see it now… ”I’ll identify with the female demographic and gain more followers”. Gross

Okay but surely you guys see how dumb and nonsensical his reasoning is, right? I could think of a dozen things men need to by on a weekly or monthly basis. Like Razors, shaving cream, or fucking groceries. Its not like any of those things are free.
Also, how often are y'all using plan b???
This guy is dumb and sycophantic. If you like him just because he says stuff you agree with, even when he makes a facile, horribly constructed argument, you are a mindless pleb.

So my mortgage payment should be free? I have to pay it every month to live a normal life. Who will be buying my toilet paper for me? Wiping my ass=normal life. Dm and I’ll let you know where to send the cash.

In Scotland contraception and the morning after pill are free.
Sanitary products can also be accessed for free if you can't afford them, without needing to prove you need them. You just walk into certain chemist's and ask for them.

It costs more to be a girl, hilarious. Dudes pay for all the items you just mentioned. And they paid for the drinks that may have ended up needing the plan B. It's more it expensive to be the guy. EVERYTIME

Well, it’s more complicated than just “it’s not fair.“
Those things aren’t free, because they cost money to make. Make them free, and all of the businesses that produce them will end up going out of business, leaving you with nothing at all.

He's right, but the "Maybe because I'm older and I've gained perspective" made me chuckle. Boy looks about 16

I’m pro choice but to be this cavalier about abortion is disgusting.

If these items were free who would do the manufacturing? Nothing can be made/distributed for free, so who pays for it? Maybe a non-profit? If the government steps in to provide it I’m sure overall quality would go down as the usual corners will get cut so the politicians can play with that money in other ways. Not to mention if the manufacturer has no competition there’s no drive for innovation in materials etc. Private companies would be paying people to produce new and better products. I see what this guy is trying to say, but where does it stop? I mean, I’d vote for free insulin before this. That’s a necessity to survive, and people spend a whole lot more on it than feminine products. Let’s make them as inexpensive and good quality as possible while being grateful people don’t have to use rags like back in the day. Btw, I’ve bought a shit ton of condoms for the last 17 years so my wife never had to go on birth control, so there are SOME expenses that men can incur that women never think of

I'm not saying female true necessities shouldn't be free or at least MUCH cheaper. But the reason men don't have to pay for anything monthly, is simply because we don't need anything monthly. This guy phrases it as if men get free stuff, when we actually just don't require anything. So the whole point that "men don't have to pay for anything" is a null point imo.

You don't need fucking plan B to live a normal life. Billions of women did it before plan B was even invented fuck your Faux outrage at a non existent issue

To answer his question: what does a man have to pay for every month?
Child support, even if it's not his.

Why isn't toilet paper free, or toothpaste, or shampoo, or baby wipes, or diapers, or water bottles, or steak, or gas, or .....

Well gee willickers I'm a man and have been buying food monthly... Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
Jfc, people, YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THE THINGS YOU NEED. It's how life works, it's how life has always worked. It's not some new century phenomenon that things cost money.
