Another chemical weapon in the war against babies

From yesterday’s Telegraph:-

Coming soon, a pill that stops periods forever

A contraceptive pill that aims to halt indefinitely a woman’s period is expected to receive full approval from US health officials this week, a move that could end discomfort and pain for many women.

The US Food and Drug Administration is expected to give the green light to Lybrel tomorrow. Wyeth, the drug’s manufacturer, has requested approval from British officials for the drug, which will be marketed here as Anya, but it is unlikely the pill will be available until next year.

... Lybrel, however, is taken for at least a year at a time. Like the majority of oral contraceptives it is a combined pill, containing both oestrogen and progestogen, but the doses of hormone have been lowered to allow for it being taken without a break.

Supporters of Lybrel claim there is no need for women to menstruate and the pill is an easy and safe way to eliminate what many consider to be a monthly ordeal.

Gynaecologists say they have been seeing a slow but steady increase in women asking how to limit and even stop monthly bleeding.

Surveys have found up to half of women would prefer not to have any periods and most would prefer them less often.

... Rebecca Findlay, of the Family Planning Association, said yesterday: “It’s a good lifestyle option for some women, and gives them extra choice, though clearly will not be welcomed by all women.”

Some experts believe that blocking periods could be unsafe. Paula Derry, a health psychologist in Baltimore, wrote in the British Medical Journal two weeks ago that “menstrual suppression itself is unnatural”, and that there was not enough data to determine if it was safe long-term.

Her stance is supported by research in the US which has found many women view their periods as symbols of fertility and health. Christine Hitchcock, of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research, told The New York Times: “My concern is that the menstrual cycle is an outward sign of something that’s going on hormonally in the body. [I worry about] the idea that you can turn your body on and off like a tap.”

The same hormones that control the menstrual cycle act on the brain, bones and skin and the long-term effects of suppressing them were unknown, she said. “You need to think whether there are consequences for the whole body that we don’t know about,” she added.

Of course, we can’t have any of this going on, can we?

Part of the problem is propaganda, like the following pity-hatred propaganda. Well done music, lot’s of listeners. Whatever the finer details of the words, many listeners remember only; feel always pity towards bums without case by case anlyzing; abortions are good, feel pity; feel pity towards drug dealers too; and finally, direct all your anger and resentment towards lily white families (multi-racial crowd looking at the European American family.

If menstruation is a problem to some, what is next. That we have to move our spoons to get food to our mouths?

The story about the mother of thirteen was refreshing.

P.s. Somebody in the comments said that Everlast (Irish American) converted to islam. If that is true, when he will do a song called; What it is like to be a kaffir.

We need counteraction in culture too, including music.

Doesith the birth contol pill as it is allready? People are being sterilized by them and aren’t able to produce offspring, and this is quite common. I repeat, people become infertile because of the pill! To me, this is just another way to make sure that we as a people become completely sterilized without knowing it. And once again it is being done via the ‘Wrapping it into something that looks like the woman’s best friend’ road of success.
I wonder if our feminist friends will see it this way as well? Maybe they might and maybe they’ll love the idea and prove how much they really hate everything that breeds or desires to breed with an opposite sex?
For me no pill is the right approach for life all around, hopefully people will look at this twice and stop taking any out of conspiracy fears. It is too bad we have people even working on these anti-human approaches to life, I think it shows a great deal about where we’re at in our cultures and where we’re likely headed. We aren’t really a people if we don’t have offspring, it is too bad people won’t wake up!

Just ignore that first sentence I did this a bit quick. I think it was something like this, ‘Doesnt everyone realize how skrewed up the birth control is for women in the first place?’ Anyway I’ll try to screen a bit better for my later comments.

Addition to my previous response: Hard core of life is problems, struggle and ability to face them. Does the modern society teach children, that there never should be suffering, pain and problems?

To DanielJ: I prefer that you do music for us over muslims. I don’t want to be associated with glorifying their terror operations. In general, I don’t want them to represent our interests, because even if they wanted to, they couldn’t. And they don’t want. I see it in here too where I live. They at least keep distance or hate us automatically.

Could you make melodic music, with clear melodies, rhytms, singing and words? Songs that have more varying scale of feelings than all out aggression. Something beautiful, that appeals to average citizens. This department is lacking, although I have heard some exceptions. I may have used too strong words to express the influence of the song I linked, but notice how subtlely several of the points are expressed along with the stories of the song, appealing to feelings and implying things. This should be studied and used.

Daniel, when you sing and women before you cry, and you see future marriage and children in their eyes, you are doing things right.

To DanielJ: Ok. When you record something, keep us posted. You have ready customers here already.
