What Contraception Is There For Men? Posted: 11-26-04 12:58pm
Women get the pill, the morning after
pill, patches, diaphrams , implants and
probably more. What is there for men?
Just the condom?

Condoms, vasectomy... Sorry. That's
about it. I think it's great that you
are asking. Most guys leave it up to us,
and that's why it sucks to be a girl
sometimes. We have to take care of
almost everything. But, I think if you
provide birth control (condoms, foam) or
help her get her own she would be very
appreciative. I bet the sex would be
better if you show how much you care about
protecting her (and yourself).

There is a foam that has spermacide in it.
You have to insert into her vagina.

Doctors have been working on a male
contraceptive pill for years-seems to be a
little trickier than the female version.It
will be a great day when they are able to
give men the responsibility of oral
contraception!!!Patty

That still wouldnt be enough for me. I
like being on the pill, because I know
i',m protected. Who knows how long that
condom has been in his wallet? Ya know?
Urge her to get some sort of birth control
though. My bf urged me- he said we
couldnt fool around until I was on it! I
made an appt at my doctor, and went from
there. He was very helpful and always
calls me at 10pm (unless he's here) to
remind me to take it!

Thats what I mean tho. You say you like
being on the pill cus u know ur protected,
well I wish I had that same option. And
if both male and female were on the pill
it would be a really really low chance of
getin pregnant

when a guy is sterile, he doesn't have
sperm, just semen. When you do a b/j,
you don't have babies in your mouth,
either. The women carries the
eggs.........
