When you break it down, birth control is still "skirting" nature, and no form of it is without risk/reward. Personally I'm still a fan if a barrier method on the merit that it serves a dual purpose of STD protection and contraception, and using it as instructed it stil remains the simplest and most effective method of birth control. Only downside is the loss of sensation, but there are a few work aroubds to lessen that too.

I don't recall anyone diminishing the effects of female Birth Control. I think we all agree it's some wicked stuff. We are just saying it would be nice to have a birth control chemical that is non-invasive and also doesn't change your personality, for both men and women. I wouldn't want my wife taking birth control. I've seen first hand the monster it creates. I've also seen people lose limbs from it. Likewise, I wouldn't want to end up like that, so it's probably better we aren't rushing a drug to the market just for the cash. I also think they plan on being way more cautious with such a drug release based on this lawsuit: https://www.schmidtlaw.com/birth-control-blood-clot-lawsuit/ https://www.schmidtlaw.com/yaz-yasmin-fda-warning/ Me? Well i'm just going to get cut one day. But I can afford things like that. Others can't. So it really is a necessary to research.

But if the shoe was on the other foot and for whatever reason male birth control was invented first I doubt women would be happy to take on depression, anxiety, mood swings, acne and the other various side effects people have experienced. Yes it's unfair that women have had to deal with it for years but it's also unfair to act like women wouldn't have the exact same reaction trying it for the first time. Most people wouldn't take something they knew could have severe side effects unless it was very important. In any case I think it's extremely stupid how almost all forms of birth control kill your libido... What's the point in that? "I'll take this so I can have as much sex as I want! Even though it will make me not want to have sex..." If anything it's only useful for men with out of control sex drives or those with female partners who can't handle the pill. It's lame having to choose between no sex drive, pregnancy or condoms

I've only experienced and known women who've suffered the opposite.

Although I think it's fairly common for women to be unusually frisky when on their period if on the pill, if it's the type you stop taking while on your period. Otherwise they don't do anything good aside from stopping baby production. Surely it's not that difficult to add in some sort of hormone to increase ones sex drive? Speaking as a biochemical scientist of course.

But then you'll have to deal with the risk of getting another unwanted side-effect like depression.

Amazing that they still give it to people...it's also one of the first they offer people(at least in the UK) It's odd really it's like they make the pills and just go "It stops you having babies, whatever" rather than trying to improve it and whittle out side effects as much as possible.

Firefox Favourite Manga Dragon Ball, Fullmetal Alchemist, Assassination Classroom, Deadman Wonderland	I think the heightened sex drive simply comes from the initial idea of having unprotected sex with the miniscule chance of getting pregnant, but that is short lived. More often than not, it is lowered sex drive. However, I'm not going to point the finger and accuse men of being "weak", but I think that given that men have experienced the same thing that women have for years, maybe birth control will be looked at in a new light. I currently have a hormonal IUD, so I experience the same side effects of pills, but I have something physically stopping pregnancy. They say you can't feel it, but you can. Your uterus for the first six months up to a year is trying to push it out.... you bleed, and it's crampy... so don't believe the bullsht that it doesn't hurt or isn't as inconvenient as the pill. Some women never actually get accustomed to it and get it taken out because they bleed all the time. I was lucky enough to only have spotting for about eight months, and now I don't even get my "monthly visitor" anymore. It's amazing not having to spend money on feminine hygiene products.

I've only experienced and known women who've suffered the opposite. The opposite you speak of is what killed my last relationship. When she stopped taking it she realized what she'd been missing and it spiraled out of control from there. Like I said. Monster.

If i was in a sexual relationship with someone and they were having extreme side effects from taking female birth control, i would want them to stop. Using a condom isn't the end of the world, it's just an annoyance because as i said, it's a killjoy, but well worth it if she's suffering and in pain. Edited by Ryebrid, Nov 4 2016, 09:18 AM.

To counter that, it's more than just a "choice of their own volition." In a sense, yes, it is a choice to take birth control, but it's become more of a societal norm for women to maintain the responsibility of preventing pregnancy. I don't see why it's such a bad idea for men to have that same option. And like you mentioned, condoms are definitely not the same.

Or having a surgery ? I mean there is condom, or the pill. Maybe women choose to take pills not because of birth control but to regulate their period. Or maybe they dont like condoms at all. I think female birth control is more flexible than male's birth control. Edited by Pointer, Nov 4 2016, 01:33 PM.

Of course female birth control is more flexible. That's the argument I was making to begin with.

That's assuming that the situations are comparable of course, if the male pill has for more severe side effects then maybe not.
