What it’s like to be slut-shamed when buying birth control

Even when pharmacists do let people access contraception, whether emergency contraception or condoms or prescription birth control pills, the process isn’t always free of judgment. In a series of recent online discussions, people across the country have begun to share stories of the stigma they’ve experienced. As many have pointed out, this can be especially damaging to teens.

DO YOU SEE THIS? PHARMACY EMPLOYEES IN THE U.S. ARE NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO THIS. THAT GOES FOR THE PEOPLE AT THE FRONT AS WELL AS PEOPLE IN WHITE COATS BEHIND THE CAGE.

If an employee in a pharmacy makes a snide comment – Front store workers, pharmacists, or Pharmacy Techs give you shit? Gently (Or not so gently) remind them that the waiver they signed upon being hired legally binds them from commenting on your purchase, as it is a violation of privacy laws. Doing so is grounds for INSTANT termination and hefty fines.

Pharmacy workers (white coats) are legally obligated to ASK if you need an explanation of how medication works and any side effects, any medication conflicts etc. If you decline, THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ALL TO MAKE SNIDE REMARKS OR FARTHER COMMENT ON YOUR PURCHASE. FRONT STORE EMPLOYEES CAN NOT AT ALL COMMENT IN ANY WAY, IN ANY STORE WITH A PHARMACY IN IT.

Know your rights. If this shit happens? Call them the fuck out and ask to speak to a manager. Get worked up. Cause a scene. Threaten a Lawsuit. If you see this happening to someone else, and they seem to be struggling, speak up for them. 

As a Pharmacy worker, you bet your ass I’ll protect you and your privacy. IT’S MY JOB.

REBLOG THIS

I DONT CARE WHAT YOUR BLOG IS

THIS IS SOMETHING EVERYONE SHOULD SEE

also just gonna add do pharmicists really not understand that birth control helps with a number of things other than just preventing pregnancy??

like the only reason i take it is to help with my acne and get rid of my period (for dysphoria purposes). nothing to do w actually getting pregnant. There is no reason the pharmacy should be assuming you’re taking it because you’re “promiscuous” anyway

A World Away (closed RP with @reptilebrained)

Shimmer gasped for breath as desperately tried to hold her own against… whoever this guy was. He certainly wasn’t holding back any punches and even though her magic was strong, he was significantly more powerful.

She flew through the air, sending spell after spell at the sorcerer, but he was able to counter her at ever angle. Eventually, her anger got the better of and she failed the see a coil of a magical restraint wrap around her ankle and fling her through the air. She hit a building, and almost felt her spine brake. Good thing she was resilient.

Getting to her feet and spitting out a glob of blood, she made one last lunge at the man. But she failed to see his hands light up in a green glow. The last thing she saw was a portal heading straight for her, and then…

Darkness.
