I see no problem with it. If a man wants to take a pill and wrap it up to try his best to avoid being a parent, why not.
Women who feel the same should also protect themselves.
I'm all for a better contraceptive method for men. Several more would be even better.
But it won't be an "abortion debate game changer".
No matter how low we push pregnancy and abortion rates, there will never be a "zero" need for abortion. We'll just be having the same arguments over fewer incidences.
Remember how some men were saying they'd have a woman sign a consent agreement to have sex so that she couldn't accuse him of rape? Women could have a similar form where the man said he was on The Pill or had a vasectomy. If she got pregnant he would agree to child support for eighteen years.
If you're a women, are you going to rely on a man who says " I'm on the pill"?
Plenty of guys out there ended up with child support payments that way.
I would. If they're in a trusting relationship, and hopefully they are, if the guy says he's on the pill consistently the girlfriend/wife should be able to believe him. A lot of women don't tolerate BC well.
Birth control for man is great. a man should make sure his sperm doesn’t impregnate a woman without his intention. it will help millions of men avoid paying unwanted child support and help reduce abortions. The question is if available will they use it? Doubtful imo
Only the smart males will use it, leading to an Idiocracy scenario 500 years from now.

Round and round we go. What if she no longer wants this man in her life for any reason at all?
I've certainly met more than one woman who rued the day she told him she was pregnant and he was the sperm donor. It's not the case that any man makes a good father.
A male contraceptive pill has passed the initial phase one safety tests in New Orleans. It has demonstrated effectiveness in decreasing sperm count while preserving libido. Good news! Hopefully it will prove safe and effective.

Again, it is not meant to replace female bc.
This gives men another option besides condoms only. It provides another option for couples when the woman cant use hormonal bc. It gives men more control over their reproduction.
I thought that's what men wanted. Especially those who fear getting stuck paying child support, getting stuck paying child support for a kid they didnt want, getting duped into paying child support for a kid that isnt theirs and not having any say so concerning a pregnancy.
