Vatican To Women: The Pill Pollutes Environment, His Testes

Sometimes being a Catholic is all about ducking your head in shame and saying, “this is not my life.”

Because the boys in the Vatican – you know the ones, they don’t have sex – have come out with another decree about the woman’s body. This time, it’s the way our contraceptive pill is harming everyone else, and men worst of all.

As if we didn’t know already that each little round pill popped out of the foil packet was destroying the world 28 days at a time by preventing the creation of more Catholic babies, now it’s apparently sending toxins out to destroy the earth via our urine. The hardest hit? The male reproductive system.

“We have sufficient evidence to state that a non-negligible cause of male infertility in the West is the environmental pollution caused by the pill,” Pedro Jose Maria Simon Castellvi, president of the International
Federation of Catholic Medical Associations,” said in the report.

Bear with me here. A report just printed in the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano says the pill makes women pee toxins. Which hurt the environment. Which makes men infertile.

Ah yes, making sense now. Because as any good Catholic girl knows, it all comes back to making babies. Which is why this one and done Mom is now a casual Catholic (well, one of the reasons).

I know pointing to the lack of baby-making experience anywhere inside the Vatican is an easy mark, but that doesn’t make it any less true. As long as the church wants to focus its attentions on contraception and conception rather than equality between the sexes, as long as the misogynistic approach toward women’s choices remains the Holy See’s holy sayings, I’m wondering how they expect to retain credibility on a global scale.
