Do you need this?

Quote
Experts at Columbia University Medical Center say they have found a pill that mimics Vitamin A deficiency, which causes male sterility.

By studying mice, researchers found low doses of the drug stopped sperm production and did not have significant side effects and fertility was restored shortly after the mice stopped the treatment.

Unlike birth control pills for females, this pill is not hormone-based. For women, choosing a birth control is a big deal, with so many to choose from.

Former birth control user Nicole Wojtak said, "Talk to your doctor and find out what the safest one would be and with the least side effects."

But will men take a contraceptive pill, every single day, if it's offered to them?

Answer: nope

Girlie men might though...

A real man, like Oscar Madison, just would not.

I think it is a great idea, but can a girl depend on a guy?

There is the troubble.

One of the two has to be carefully on contraceptives elese they both should be ready to accept the responsibility of a child.

Looks like they should take Nancy Reagan's slogan or deal with the consequences.

Yeah, that worked out perfectly. Once Nancy Reagan said "just say no", everyone said no and that was the end of the drug problem. The drugs were last seen waving the tiny white flags of surrender.


Actually, both partners should take precautions.

It seems pretty clear that the women involved with both Schwartzenegger and  Edwards clearly wanted to have the child.

The technology exists to prevent pregnancy as well as unwanted babies.

I hardly think that relieves either of these guys from the blame.

I can see minor cases of wives blaming husbands of taking them to not have kids. men wanting kids not exactly priority amoung us all.
