In most cases birth control is not used to control/treat a health issue or risk like other prescriptions so it shouldn't be paid for by insurance like other meds. Condoms aren't covered by insurance and strong arguments can and have been made they prevent unwanted pregnancies and transmission of STD's. One could say that by subsidizing birth control pills and not condoms, one is lowering the expectation and belief that a woman make wise and smart decisions about her decided actions.

This is where womens equality has gone past equal. While a woman can get subsidized BC pills to control pregnancy, a guy can't get subsidized condoms but instead he CAN get an order of child support. Very biased in my opinion.
