The Period Pill...

[PetrusDaniel]

This is willfull sterilisation at its best.

[PetrusDaniel]

This drug is not ment to help people, its ment to sterilise them without having to throw them into a detention camp and forcefuly sterilise them. The people today are so stupid they become auschwitz prisoners in theyr own home, willfully, without noticing it. And assisted suicide is the equivalent of the gas chamber, if you cant work anymore and you are bored of life you can just kill yourself, just like the natzis did with people that where nonproductive.

[liverbitz91]

@PetrusDaniel Wow you did not just compare women taking medication to the Holocaust. Shocking, really. And if we are going to be sterilizing anyone it should be those girls and boys from "16 and Pregnant".

[emantabrizi]

LOL...Bob is running out of things to rant about.

[jaebcommakayla]

You really are a fucktard. On any birth control supplement, a woman has no biological need to have a period. Therefore, periods will be lighter and sometimes not come at all. This is common knowledge. And "how is this a good idea?!!!" well, for starters, some women (like myself) do not feel the need to give birth, so why do we need a period? Why deal with the cramps and buying products? You're a man, you wouldn't get it, so maybe you shouldn't bitch about shit you don't even understand.

[liverbitz91]

@jaebcommakayla "will be lighter and may not come at all" - this is referred to as "withdrawal". Your body is going through withdrawal from medication. It has nothing to do with your body not biologically needing to have a period. And it's not common knowledge, or you would know what you were talking about.

And dismissing a person on an issue like this because of their gender is sexist. Fourth-wave feminism. Now go read a book.

[Garrashi07]

There wouldn't be a future

[theFFVIguy]

Bob really cares about the well being of women.

[chicagobuilt]

"Flippin a coin"

[SilencedSkeptic]

heads

[PersonOnEarth]

I totally totally freakin agree.

Only a total idiot would screw with the more delicate parts of your body's nature. Doing that is sickening to me, and it can only end in a bad way, let your body do what it's supposed to!

I am a guy of course, but I do not care how painful, bothersome or unpleasant it can be,(Or whatever it makes you go through, I can't know)I would never even consider it for any reason ever! I DO know it can't be so bad to be worth screwing yourself.

[254theque]

When you are on any hormonal birth control pill, you do not ovulate, and thus, you do not have a real period. It's just a withdrawal bleeding from the lack of hormones during your sugar pill week. The uterine lining hasn't built up, therefore, there's nothing to shed.

[SoccerSupa2]

Fuck buddy STFU You dont know what its like to HAVE CRAMPS EVERYDAY FOR 6 TO 7 WHOLE DAYS SO STFU

[clarity2325]

He's not argueing against a drug that alleviates cramps, he is talking about how unhealthy it would be for a woman to not have a period.

[bloominbilgerat69]

you stupid ass bitch, Bob is saying its not possible to have a pill that is safe that could do such a thing.

He even said, it would be nice if it would!

No one thinks cramps are a good thing, --if you're so unhappy about your cramps, why don't you rip out your uterus, because thats about what this pill would probably do in the long run.

[malikahardy]

ihe has a point the reason girls have cycles is to clean out thier bodies and to keep hormons balanced...recently people have been dying of blood clots from these "period pills"

[ComradeSephiroth]

People said the same thing about the birth control pill, bonehead!

[roxshootingstar]

hey jackass, have you ever even HAD a fucking period?

ok then, try to BLEED for five to seven days EVERY FUCKING MONTH!!!!

when this ever happen to you, talk to me again to see if you changed your stupid mind.

[limaak]

He is damned correct. The drug is called LYBREL marketed by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. It is a birth control with no regular periods.

Maybe superwoman like Hillary C. and the super woman athletes need drug like this.

[sammygg21]

if you dont under stand what he is explaining he is saying it is very unhealthy 4 you and it will be banned soon and should be cause it could cause problems for the next generation of people

[captionpsycho]

in china they got an male birth control pill that's whats next for america.

[oldfuckeric]

what's next the shut the fuck up pill.

[psychogranddad]

america the land of the drug addicts.drugs,drugs,drugs that the american story.

[leiapeison]

hysterectomies can cause all sorts of medical and hormonal problems that are similar to menstruation. also what doctor do you know of would do a hysterectomy just because a person doesn't want their period? i actually would love to have hysterectomy but it is not legal for me.

[NBAXXX]

heyy i was just wondering. if the pill which is used to prevent u getting pregnant if its useds the same just for stopping periods..?????

[brucefontaine]

Fiasco waiting to happen! CLASSIC! Bob for President!

[leiapeison]

you try bleeding like a stuck pig for five days while having the distemperament of a rabid joan crawford. afterwards come and tell me if you are still against the period pill.

[chamarka7]

Why don't you just get a hysterectomy, then? Menstruation is part of being a fertile woman. Get over it.

[CaptainNipples]

Don't girls need periods because it does something with their Reproduction System!! I think that is stupid and wont get man kind nowhere!!

[w0lfch1ld]

it happens naturally for a reason.

do you think taking a pill to stop what nature has intended, to be a good idea?! nothing good can come of it.

way to go bob, tell it how it is! :)

[bwhyplg4]

If nature intends for you to have cancer, most people would be all for any medication that might make their situation better. Very few people refuse to go to doctors and refuse to have immunizations and take pills when sick, so I don't see what these hypocritical comments are about. Women have periods to prepare their uterus for childbirth. If you don't want childbirth, there is no purpose in them.

[hipechik]

mozart20dlubos, you're the idiot. For many women, menstruation is the ONLY SIGN they have in knowing when something is wrong medically and they need to get checked out.

I guarantee that the first lawsuit will happen when a woman discovers she missed a medical condition that left her sterile, because the "pill" robbed her of the symptoms she needed to discover it early.

[Vivahearts]

Who cares, let the market decide. If the market decides they should get cancer or become infertile or die, then oh well.

[rgs4627]

it gives females heart problems....

[israelx7]

Give the people what they want...after all who could know better than the human race what is best for them? We choose death over life every time...

[trippdefane]

december 21, 2012......!?

[skeil909]

My primary concern is that our overly liberal society will allow minors access to this product without parental consent. It's bad enough that a minor can get an abortion on there own, but nobody can say for sure what the long term effects of this pill could be. Does anyone actually believe what the FDA or pharmaceutical companies say anyway?

[skeil909]

Just because someone is a doctor doesn't mean they are looking out for what's in your best interest.

[BreeinOC]

re: skeil909

or take the time to read up on new medical developments. doctors are human and make mistakes. get a second opinion. it saved my life.

[hipechik]

Long term effects? You don't have to worry about the long term effects because the short term ones are already evident! Periods are lifesavers; irregular periods or abnormally long ones actually let you know if you have a serious medical condition or not! So I can't imagine why the FDA would approve something like that! That's like getting rid of the ability to feel pain, lol.

[DeportThemNow]

Umm.. anyone who thinks it's a good idea to stop menstruation is an idiot.. I don't care how much "research" you do. Bob is right.. it's like stopping urination.. Menstruation is not something broken that needs to be "fixed". Stopping it will mess up a woman's body. What do these pharma companies think they are God or something???

[vladmir38]

There used to be 5-10 years FDA research prior to release of new drugs. This seems to be a thing of the past, hence the list of rather life threatening side effects from many of these current drugs nowadays. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out this drug will kill a few more than a few before it is pulled from the market. Greed has taken over the medical community.

[BGSoccerMagic]

Even worse Bob they have to take it EVERY frigin day. Whoever designed that pill wants to become rich very fast. Let's hope women ain't that stupid.

[testpress]

BGSoccerMagic: Good point. It's all about getting rich, as usual. Watched the nightly news lately? It's mostly drug commercials now, just sickening.

[perfectlyflawedx]

thank you! common sense. dumb people.

[LittleSisOne]

I remember when I wished that this day would come true

and now that it's here it doesn't really sound healthy

to me now.

[mozart20dlubos]

You're an idiot. That's like saying that birth control pills are a fiasco waiting to happen. How about sitting down and doing some research about whether or not stopping menstruation is a good or bad idea. You're wrong when you say "you don't have to be a doctor to know stopping menstruation is bad". You're also an idiot for saying that. Do your research and stop thinking with your ass.

[ncmoonshine]

shut up and listen to the man , he makes much sense! now tell bob youre sorry.

[Sk33tStalker]

he didnt say menstruation is bad. he said the pill is a fiasco waiting to happen. you are the dumb one here. no one knows what long term effects this will have on women except that they may be infertile for the rest of their lives. this is why i wont get guardasil. i am 16 and i would never take this pill

[mozart20dlubos]

You said "no one knows what long term effects this will have on women". If no one knows, then why is Idiot-Bob already assuming that it will be a fiasco. If doctors and manufacturers of the drug don't know the long-term side effects, why does Idiot-Bob think he knows ?

[edwardianbeauty]

Menstration is natural. I mean he's right that pill can really affect women because something natural is being cut off.

[israelx7]

I can't imagine this next generation being infertile could be a bad thing...

[clarity2325]

haha.

[BGSoccerMagic]

mozart20dlubos, and you did yours, didn't you? Preventing the ovulation (birth control pills) is one thing, preventing the maturation and shedding of endometrium is scompletely different.

[mozart20dlubos]

I didn't do any research, but you didn't hear me make ANY claims. And I'm objective enough that I will never make any claims on something I haven't done research on. Unlike Idiot-Bob, who is obviously not ready to take the time to research the subject, but rather, prefers to takes the lazy way out by assuming the worst.

[BGSoccerMagic]

But how do you know he hadn't done any research? Before becoming a comedian this guy used to be a teacher.

[mozart20dlubos]

Wait, he's a comedian ? Dude, he said the following: "you don't have to be a doctor to know that stopping menstruation is a recipe for fiasco". What that implies is that he didn't bother to do any research. He has all but assumed that no research is needed, and that it's a no-brainer.

But seriously, this guy is a comedian ? I've seen uptight christian fundamentalists with more humor than this guy. He takes everything too seriously. He's the epitome of ANAL.

[BGSoccerMagic]

He's a comedian and he's very funny i always laugh watching his videos. He's got his own rant TV show or something like it, he's got a link to his website on his Youtube account.

[BGSoccerMagic]

As for saying "you don't have to be a doctor", he's reffering to the common folk. Plus you don't really have to be a doc to know its gonna end in a fiasco. People suing the drug compony, etc. hey if they sell a drug that is to be taken every day buy millions of women i guess they can afford to lose few millions in court cases.

[mozart20dlubos]

Im checking his website now.

[wussycat]

They approved the anti-period pill because they're sick of women going batshit insane every month.

[jcoverload]

LMAO!!

[testpress]

Yup, no way is it healthy.

[skeil909]

Wife and I were talking about this yesterday and how this cannot in anyway be healthy for a young woman. How many teenage girls will look at this as a miracle pill and then years later we find out they have fertility problems or dysfunctional children. I honestly wouldn't trust the FDA to approve shoe strings for my shoes.

[BGSoccerMagic]

lolz
