Should single women who request fertility treatments be denied because they are unmarried? Is marital status and family structure relevant to the provision of medical care? When did we reintroduce morality into medicine? Should doctors be able to judge whether a women is of 'appropriate moral standing' to receive a prescription for contraceptives? Should men be denied vasectomies if the surgeon thinks they are likely to 'abuse their liberty' after the procedure?
