The birth control balance of power responsibility needs some tilting back in the male's favour.

Agreed.

Once again, women prove to be women's worst enemies.  Go ahead, abdicate the only real leverage you have for social and sexual equality in this society.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

You don't think I'd rely on the guy, do you? Oh, fuck no. I'd be on the pill, too, and we'd be using condoms until he tested clean for a year.

Nonetheless, I'm sick as hell of men crying foul whenever their fuck-buddy gets knocked up. "She tricked me!" Yeah, well, now you've got no one to blame but yourself. :contract:

Of course.  Why rely on others to take their whore pills, when you can have the peace of mind of doing it yourself?  The birth control balance of power needs some tilting back in the male's favour.

It already is.  It's called the facial.  Look it up.  No, seriously, look it up, it's on Wikipedia.

(I've done this bit before, but I like it. :P )

Anyway, yeah, my main objection to (female) birth control pills is my inability to trust someone to take it properly.  On the other hand, I'm certainly not sure that I am capable of compliance myself, but at least it's under my control.

Yeah how dare anybody be upset about a major breach of trust in a relationship...

Right. Because that's what it is every time a woman gets pregnant, a trick.  :rolleyes:

Which actually makes my point for me. If there were a pill for men, no one would ever need to hear those accusations again.

Precisely, ever since feminism happened and we men stopped owning our wives and children and they started owning us every single pregnancy on earth has been a trick.  :P

One cannot exaggerate how stupid this Koala is, not only was he duped by the female of the species, the slut probably got him infected with chlamydia.  2011 surveys in Queensland show that chlamydia has caused symptoms in at least 50 percent of the koala population.

I'd think you'd get more of them.
"I'm pregnant it seems!"
"You said you were on the pill! You lying bitch!"
"ME?!?! It was you who said you were on the pill you stupid cunt!"
