Health insurance is not some gift your employer gives you out of the goodness of the employer's heart. It's part of your compensation package. It's part of your pay. When an employer says he is not going to cover certain things because it morally offends him, what he is saying is that he is choosing to pay you less, because he disapproves of how you might choose to spend the money he pays you.

It's no different than an employer saying since he's morally opposed to gambling, he's going to cut your wages so you can't afford to gamble anymore.

Really, ladies, it's for your own good. Your boss knows what's best for you, and he'll cut your salary to prove it. Because that's how much he cares about you.
