Why is it relevant? So far nobody forces me to take birth control and threatens for exclude me from the society if I refuse to do so (UK wants to require vaccine passports to go to cinema, for example). Nobody paints me as stupid anti-vaxxer if I just say I don't want to take BC pills. Nobody tells me that I won't be able to travel unless I agree to take BC.

I am a guy, so maybe I don't know what I am talking about. But I have a strong suspicion that the consequences for young women that chose not to take birth control pills can be felt as well and that they often feel quite a pressure from friends, boyfriends, parents, etc. to take the pill.

I am sorry, this is the whole other level. First of all, you are not obliged to discuss your medication with friends or parents. Second, your reply is pretty much like:

>> In China you disappear if you publicly say bad things about CCP.

> Yeah, I know what you mean, I called somebody motherfucker and got banned on HN. Freedom of speech is nowhere these days.
