Since when can't ADULTS decide for themselves! I don't understand why we as a people continue to allow them to get away with this. It's time to stand up for OUR RIGHTS! Time for us as a people to be heard! &lt;br&gt; What is it that we 'need' to do to be heard? Protest, write letters, get on talk shows, pay for tv commercials, stand in front of congress, what? &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Who are they to tell me that if I want any relief from menopause that the only thing I can take is pregnant HORSE PISS!!! I mean really, where does it all end. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I'm just so frustrated with it all.
