    It’s called plan B in the US? We call it “the morning-after pill” where I live. I think it’s a bit more self-explanatory.

      It’s also referred to as the morning after pill. IIRC Plan-B was a brand name.

        Back in my day we called it RU-486. Always reminded me of a Russian computerized submarine.

          That is for an abortion, not for preventing a pregnancy from occurring. The difference is insanely and stupidly important for religious fascists.

            For now. If those fucks have their way, it won’t be too long before plan b is just abortion by another name, followed by contraception.

            Mifepristone can also be used as an emergency contraceptive too though.

          RU-486 is a different product.

            You’re right. I had been mistaken for decades.

      I raise you “anti-baby-pill” from Germany.

      Edit: anti-baby-pill refers to contraceptive pill.

        Really? That’s a bit too… intense. I propose “postpone-baby-pill” or “baby-no-thanks-pill”.

          Yeah, it’s pretty straightforward. I raise “baby-not-today-pill”.

            We could call it Fetuscide, to trigger the fuck out of fundies and other retrogrades

        I’ve always heard that for the normal pill, not the morning-after one.

          Really? Mhm, I guess it may differ throughout Germany?

            All references online also seem to point to it being the contraceptive pill: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibabypille

              I must be mistaken, then! Thanks for pointing it out. Doesn’t change the funny harshness of the name - pill is similar after all…
