Ping!
I just put a pebble in my shoe it makes me limp
Neither men, nor women, should tolerate the side effects of a regular bombardment of hormones.
Marry a person, use barrier birth control if you want, and accept the occasional pregnancy. You are married for heaven’s sake. No need to keep yourself in a chemical stew.
Infertility is also a side effect of the female “pill”, and just as bad, I suspect its a cause of cancers also.
Any form of birth control other than condoms or external barriers is risky as far as fertility problems.
Women really shouldnt be experimenting on themselves like that. Babies are natural.
Viagra also has side effects but not that hard for men to overcome?
Gee, millions of infertile males. That would really help eliminate unwanted pregnancies and thus drive down the need for abortions. I’m sure that Planned Parenthood will be putting up male contraceptive pills as a major sideline. (Sarcasm)
Is sex for recreation or procreation? If the former, birth control -- with all its side effects -- makes sense. If the latter, then pregnancy isn't a side effect; it's the very PURPOSE of the act!
In short, it isn't the technology that's at fault; it's the morality.

They put chemicals in their bodies I wouldn't put in my compost pile.
P.S. Some of the more "organic" or eco-feminist ladies actually know this. It does bother them. It would be pretty enlightened for them to become advocates of "natural" methods that won't leave them depressed, flat-libido, acne-prone, cancerous, sterile or dead.
The hatred for men exhibited by these critics of them, is palpable.
I have known women who took birth control. I expressed my view that I wished they didn’t need to. I encouraged them not to.
For a time several decided to give it a try. They backed off and let nature take it’s course. In both cases as time went by their monthly cycles became less cyclic, less predictable, and even problematic. One month they’d have a very light cycle and the next month they would have a very very strong cycle. After more discussion both women went back on the pill, and after they did, they become more regular with normal cyclic activity, much easier to manage, and far less scary to put it mildly.
I recognize that some women have problems with the pill. I don’t like that. My concern would be for their safety and well being. I would certainly be supportive of them stopping using the pill or finding alternatives that would be less trouble for them.
I would never dream of attacking them, insulting them, belittling them, or doing anything else negative toward them due to their personal choice on it.
Women that act the opposite toward men are just beasts.
Women fought for the right to be more like men. When they got the chance to do that, some women picked out the worst men imaginable and became them.
Intelligence, it’s not for everyone.
No need to "suspect": birth control pills are known carcinogens and would almost certainly be disapproved if they were a drug for any other purpose.
not only that, but some women taking birth control pills find that these seriously interfere with their desire for sex, and their ability to achieve orgasm.
These hormones are not worth the havoc they play with a healthy body.
I agree, for either women or men. Nobody should be making themselves sick when they're not; this refers both to the intended function of the drugs AND the side affects.
In general, it is best to weigh the costs and benefits of any prescription drug. If the benefits do not significantly outweigh the costs, then it is best to look for something else.
There is nothing at all wrong with recreational sex among married couples. There are only 3-5 days in the average menstrual cycle when it is even possible to get pregnant. Normal, happily married couples are going to have intercourse daily or even multiple times per day during the first years of marriage, gradually settle into a pattern of 2-4 times per week after a few years and even less once they get into their 40s, 50s and 60s.
Sex is a gift from God to provide not only for procreation, but also to cement marriages by providing recreation. This is why the need is constant and ongoing. Properly used between married couples, it also provides an additional layer of stability to a marriage and ensures that father and mother stay together, not only to protect their children, but also support each other long after the reproductive years are over.
Yeah, there are a lot of sick jerks out there who think this statement is funny or that, somehow, Christians and Conservatives are sex-obsessed with even making this argument. I've been a target of them myself.
But if it weren't true, God would have created us like animals who only have sex during a brief breeding season. Think about that, you sick critics and scoffers.
Men must either convince a woman to let them have sex with them or commit a felony that can lead to life in prison. They, for some reason, are convinced that they can take sex as lightly as men can. They can't. They get pregnant.
Luckily for men, women have been shown to have poor taste, poorer judgment and low standards when it comes to men. They also have become even less discerning over the last several decades.
LOL. Women are stupid enough to take poison every month and they think men should be morons too? Good luck with that, ladies.
With all the diabetes going around and the resulting ED, there is really no need for male birth control.
FYI ping.
