In Which I Attempt To Be At Least Slightly Politically Neutral And Most Probably Fail Completely :(

Science. It's fun. It's complicated. It's precise. It's also often invoked in rhetoric to make things 'true', whether there is actual science going on or not. I take exception at this -- especially that the most abused facet of scientific research is most scientists' devotion to accuracy

I have heard that since one of the effects of birth control pills is to thin the lining of the uterus (or maybe just prevent some of the build-up), it could be harder for a fertilized egg to latch on. So I suppose that could be the "irritation" they're talking about, although really, a lack of build up isn't irritation, so . . . yeah
