Ordering Plan B Online
I am dismayed. I've dabbled in selling stuff online. I am not that good at it.
Anyway, I was just looking at a list of top selling men's products on Drugstore.com. The Plan-B Contraception was at the top of the list. I went to the contraceptive page on the store. Plan-B held the top position on the top selling contraceptive products page.
Only a moron would be shopping for "emergency contraception" online. Even with express shipping, a gal is pretty much guaranteed to be knocked up by the time the Fed-Ex man arrived with the pill.
The only reason a rational person would be ordering the product online is if they were planning on using Plan B as Plan A.
To do some more investigating: I clicked on the "Men" tab. I then clicked on the "Condom" tab. This pill intended for women was being marketed as a contraception for men.
BTW, I am not surprised to see a pharmaceutical being marketed to the wrong crowd and being misused. When you play games like trying to relabel an abortive as contraceptive, you are guaranteed to create a climate that leads to misuse.
I fear that some of the men who are buying Plan B online have targets in mind. As these people become a problem there will probably be a backlash against the pill and it won't be available by the rape victims who really need the product.
