Young Men, are you upset that you'll no longer be able to get health insurance cheaper than women?

for example, there's a low coverage policy with pretty gaping holes that costs just $63/month for men and $93/month for women.

one of the reasons that plan was cheaper was because you are male.

how do you feel now that you'll have to pay the same amount as women for health coverage?

Tell you what, how about we start jacking up auto insurance for young women. Wouldn't it be more fair if young women had to pay as much as young men?

The feminazis would have a cow if anyone suggested that.

What he fails to mention is that Under O'care they both get royally hosed.  Equally, but royally hosed nonetheless.

Like all socialistic programs misery gets redistributed.

I also pay less for haircuts.

However, in the interests of karmic balance female strippers can make lots of money from me whereas male strippers aren't even qualified to apply.

I knew that would bring out some man haters...

1. my boys will not even know they are being deprived. they will think it is a norm. and they will be

surprised as **** when they learn that like women not being able to vote in the past, they also had to pay a higher health care simply cause.... they are women.

it will just be another hurtle made, that brings us to an equality. that they will find outrageous.

Yeah yeah we get it. Your quest to turn your sons into gender-neutral, asexual drones is almost complete.

Poor fellows. Perhaps they'll stumble upon some internet pr0n and a few Man Show reruns before they leave home, and all will not be lost.

This is where the Dummies blindness on "gender equality" comes out to play.  Young women can become pregnant, and in fact do become pregnant on a regular basis.  They are also more likely to have a daily prescription with birth control pills.  That is factored into their insurance. Young men don't generally have any major health issues, and if they do it would likely be considered a pre-existing condition and be factored into their insurance payment.. Young men do pay more for auto insurance because they tend to be more reckless. 

Insurance companies set coverage rates based on the probability that it will need to be utilized, period.  Or at least, that is how they did it until the government started poking around with it.

I remember way back when at the L.A. Coliseum when the feminazis complained that lines at women's restrooms were twice as long as men's rooms.

So they blocked off 1/2 of the urinals in the men's rooms.

I know, I was there.

And we all know what Title IX did to sports across the country --men's teams were all shut down.  It didn't elevate a single womyn's team.

Liberalism=equality=equally shared misery.

Girls go to the doctor more often and sooner.  Guys wait until someone drags them there.

How would you like to have a mother who would post on a public forum about you, "they will be surprised as ****"?

I guess that's not unusual for a democrat woman.

Talk about kids born with two strikes against them!

You bring up a great point, CR. I wonder if she will also be hoping to teach her daughters about the day that men were not charged higher car insurance just for being men? i hate the ego centrism of liberal women in this country and any other special group in liberaland for that matter. Almost every damn thing they claim as an inequity happens to men too but on a different product or front and never is any woman over there declaring injustice against men. Again that inconsistency I mentioned in another thread that just never seems to twinge the conscience of a liberal--they can be incredibly inconsistent and it just doesn't seem  to bother them or they are too stupid perhaps to even understand their own inconsistencies. Not sure which one.

[DumbAss Tanker]

The nerve of those young men, expecting to pay less for health insurance than young women, just because they young men have lower average medical needs and costs!  Harrumph, harrumph, I say!!!

I thought the same thing, GOBUCKS.  You're somebody's mother, you shouldn't talk that way!  Trash.

Maybe illicit drugs or alcohol were involved.

Problem with that, in her case, is the next morning sobriety and crippling self loathing kick in.
