My only worry is that is could lead to a spike in STDs.

OHHHH SNAP!

Good one, gotta give you that.

Anyways, I think it's great as long as it's safe. Gives men a bit more control, but I think that yongrel might be right about a spike in STD's--although I can't comprehend how it could get worse.*


*Disclaimer--I lived in Baltimore for a long time, working in clinical diagnostics and one of the specialties was STD detection systems....that's enough to make you paranoid. I assume that everyone has an STD until proven otherwise. You never know what people will lie about, or be in denial about.

How devastatingly clever.

Back to point: What are the concerns, if any, about male contraceptive pills?

And men are selfish, violent and dishonest.

Collectivism. Gotta love it.

Maybe you should look at the kind of women you're hanging out with before you make such a judgment.

C'mon--her methods are truly only applicable to rapists and child molesters. We're just talking a little light-hearted misogyny here.

the best part is that her husband went on to do porn movies. "John Bobbitt Uncut" and "Frankenpenis."

Thanks for the laugh--I had no idea! I actually snorted (in a very delicate girly way) and made my dog cock her head...

It's not my intention to imply that STD's aren't a really bad problem right now, they are. But at the same time I'd bet there is a lot higher ratio of infected people to noninfected who come to get tested, than there is in the rest of the world.

In other words, you maybe saw 65% to 70% of the people who filed through your clinic to get tested, show positive. However, amongst the general population it's probably more like 15% to 20% infected at the very most.

That would tend to color my views too, btw.

Damn straight, and they also have to pay child support when their crazy girlfriend lies to them about being on the pill.

I'll look out for myself, thank you.

Never said you shouldn't. Just making the point that lumping all women in one category, while sometimes funny, ain't accurate.
