I went to a planned parenthood when I moved to get my birth control. It was close and I was young and naive still believing they were for reproductive care. They gave me an exam and told me I had hpv and they needed to perform a LEEP (scrape cells off my cervix and make sure it isn’t cancer). I called my mom after and she told me “fuck that, call you primary care from when you were little and schedule an appointment. Do not mention this to them.” Sure enough my primary care never saw that. Not once, after a yearly exam for 16 years. After the 3rd on gun visit post that experience I asked my doctor and they were very uncomfortable telling me I was fine after I pressed why PP would say different. What did they see? How could they mistake that? Convinced they just wanted to harvest my good cervix cells for god knows what.

Yeah, truly evil.
