GENDER EQUALITY WITH ABORTION BILL

It had to happen.  Fair is fair.  How 'bout any man thinking of having sex get this treatment and also a doctors certificate each time he has sex?  The partner of course would have to ask to see the certificate before proceeding to have sex with him.  It's a win win for sure.

Sen Janet Howell

RICHMOND, Va. (CBSDC/AP) — Sen. Janet Howell, a Democrat from Fairfax, says if pregnant women should have to get an ultrasound before having an abortion, men should have to undergo additional medical procedures before getting a prescription for erectile dysfunction.

On Monday Howell expressed her disdain for legislation requiring the ultrasound by proposing an amendment she described as a simple matter of fairness. Her amendment said that before being treated for erectile dysfunction, a man would have to undergo a digital rectal exam and a cardiac stress test.

“We should just have a little gender equity here,” Howell said.

She said if women are going to be subjected to an unnecessary medical procedure, men should be as well.
