Although, I would add to the bold, there's debate on that. Different cultures view it differently. For yours, it's optional. That's great. That doesn't mean it's the way everyone lives. You can hang onto your celibacy.

You view it as risky, unnecessary behavior. Someone who eats a cheeseburger every day, exercises little and downs a six pack is at higher risk for diabetes, heart disease and ED. Insurance covers all those. Do you want to police everyone's lifestyle choices? Or just women's?

I am a strong supporter of abstinence until marriage.  But I'm not foolish enough to believe everyone will be that way.  And I know many people who were/are very  responsible with their contraceptives because they understand the risks of their behavior.

And if we are to go with the "sex is optional" argument why cover viagra?

These people are paying their premiums and copays. I don't think it is unreasonable for a paying customer to expect their health insurance to cover prescriptions.

Bingo.  The employer is presenting as they are paying it themselves.
