CyberPsycho tells us more.
UPDATE: I called the manager and told him about my encounter. He wants me to come talk to him about it further but I'll admit that I'm still kind of embarrassed to go back to that store....

I'm a pharmacist, and I agree that this is unacceptable behavior. It is unprofessional, unethical, and furthermore any pharmacist SHOULD know that there are many reasons why a patient may be on birth control. I recall when I was an intern that I took a phone call from a tearful young woman asking if we sold Plan-B, to which my head pharmacist rudely replied "We don't sell that here and never will!". It is not our place to be judgemental. Our job is to provide health-care.
The same thing happened to me when I was younger. When I went to see the doctor about getting some prescribed to me, she tried to tell me I didn't need it, I was too young (I was 14) and how inappropriate it was. The thing is, I wasn't even having sex. I needed it because the medication I was on caused birth defects so you have to take birth control at the same time. The point is, I feel for you OP and I'm so sorry that happened. Try not to let it get to you. Even if you are having sex, it's none of her business.
#12: Don't birth defects only occur when you're pregnant, which is caused by having sex? --Easily-Confused Male (Redundant, I Know)
Yes, but some acne medications require you to be on birth control because they can be so harmful to a pregnancy. Just because a woman practices abstinence doesn't mean she can't be raped.
I'm not understanding why your virginity is even relevant. Your sex life is not the pharmacist's business. Please report it. The pharmacist was unprofessional and unethical even if you had group sex every night. Your body, your choice!

I take mine because I had an ovarian cyst to rupture. I'm still a virgin too, lol I was scared to death to tell my dad
Wow. Even if you were having sex, the pharmacist has no right to shame you for it. At least you'd be practicing safe sex.
Well, birth control pills don't prevent sexually transmitted infections, so I'm not sure that you are practicing safe sex.

it's still safer than no birth control in the matter of pregnancy prevention.
#29, I think #22 was referring to being responsible and preventing an unwanted pregnancy via the pill as well
Speak with a manager, report it to the store owner or manager esp if its a pharmacy in a larger store, demand your money back, go to another pharmacy, and the file an official complaint with the state board. Make the judgmental bitch/bastard suffer.

A pharmacist, of all people, should know that birth control is not only taken to prevent pregnancy. I take it due to having Endometriosis. So I can relate to you. Im sorry that the pharmacist was such a rude fucknugget to you. Report them! Dont let it get to ya, OP

I'd report them ASAP. That's extremely unprofessional and they don't need to give out their opinions on what medications people take. Would they rather someone be safe if they were taking birth control to prevent pregnancy or would they rather someone be pregnant if they didn't want to? I wonder how they react to people purchasing condoms. "You're buying condoms?!!? You *****! How dare you take precautions so you can enjoy sex safely?!?!"
'merica!
**** no (lol)

I'd report her/him, they're a pharmacist, they're supposed to remain professional and helpful. They should not be working in that field if they are going to be a judgmental jerk. Even if you weren't a virgin, the reasons you take birth control is your own damn busniess.
Holy shit. That's super unethical. They should know the all the purposes of BC. I would totally file a complaint against the pharmacy. I would be so livid.
