My friend (who is a lady) went to buy condoms and the shop owner started preaching to her.

Other people's decisions are not your business.

It is attitudes like these that prevent people from getting contraceptives, because they might feel judged at the counter

I know ladies, that go as far as another local government to get emergency contraceptives because the people on her street will gossip about it.

What is worse is when a married woman even attempts to buy them. This video just reminded me of it

People at the point of sales or health workers need to let go of their bias, whatever they might be. If we're honest, the effect is more on the ladies than the guys and women who go out to buy contraceptives are seen as promiscuous.

I lie! I'm sure we all have stories to share

If you want to share your story, share with #MyFPStory or send it to my DM, I can help you share anonymously.

Any adult should be able to get contraceptives without being judged. It's that simple.
