While President Obama wants to grant women access to free birth control, this guy thinks women ought to pay more for access to contraception -- $1,500 per year more, to be precise.

$1500... uhh what? )

So...this is gonna be a wake up call for every man to get a vasectomy, as that's free of hormones. Right? Right?

If guys want women to not use birth control, they should stop having sex with us. That'll cut down most of the use

Rampant misogynistic douchebaggery aside (even though that's pretty much the entire reason for this ridiculous article), his logic/purported knowledge of the average tax system is non-existent. And given the fact that this whole article is talking about taxing one group over another...well, some knowledge of tax codes is probably a good thing ( ... )

On top of the obvious slut-shaming and misogyny, and the absurdity of this asshole's argument, I'm just gonna drop this right here.
