As can be seen from the studies of two highly respected universities, NYU and Columbia, not known for their ignorance, 52% of US employees work for employers affected by this ruling. No one is suggesting that that all employers will uses this ruling for their benefit but it is theoretical possible. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2014/06/30/a-lot-of-people-could-be-affected-by-the-supreme-courts-birth-control-decision/

Let see if this help.... -this ruling only applies where the ownership is, essentially, an individual or small group: The Catholic yarn shop would qualify under this ruling. it doesn't mean that every religious belief would be exempted in similar fashion. Alito also said the decision is limited to contraceptives under the health care law Contraceptives are condemned by the Catholic church and if the owners have a history of supporting Catholic teachings and practices , they can petition the court for an exemption to providing all contraceptives under this Supreme Court ruling.

Unless I am totally missing something, Shady, the law requiring contraceptive coverage was not ruled unconstitutional. Consequenceless sex is up to the individual, and the law guarantees that a woman has the right to choose how to minimize her consequences. The men that I know are pleased that a woman opts for consequenceless sex, especially if single and not ready to make a commitment or if married, they have more children than they can afford.
