> The jury on Friday found, however, that discrimination based on her sex had not occurred. But Badeaux and the pharmacy did cause Anderson emotional harm in the amount of $25,000. Also this happened in 2019. Basically it seems like the pharmacist wasn’t discriminating her sex (i.e. would’ve denied a man the contraception except men don’t take birth control), but did end up paying. Unfortunately there’s a big issue of not having easy and reasonable access to birth control and abortions which is overshadowed by laws trying to ban abortions in general. It doesn’t matter if abortion is legal in your state if you have to travel to another state anyways because there are no licensed clinics. If this person didn’t have to drive three hours to see another pharmacist maybe she wouldn’t have even cared to sue this one.
