No and I wouldn't want laws banning them. From a woman's point of view, I can see some pros - you don't have to worry if you're having a bad hair day, you don't have to tweeze your eyebrows, you don't have to shave under your arms or shave your legs, you don't have to stand in front of the closet wondering what you're going to wear that day and you don't have to worry if you've gained a few pounds.
