[quote Speaking as a man who hates condoms, it is difficult to deal with. You have to have a girlfriend who is willing to take the pill and that you can trust to take it. I, of course, will wear condoms if she is not comfortable taking the pill but seriously... the lack of options for men is just ridiculous. None of our primary options are very good... abstinence is not a solution, condoms are at best clumsy, and a vasectomy is permanent.

I really wish that there were better options. Hopefully some pharmaceutical company wakes up soon and puts some effort into developing an effective male contraceptive in a timely fashion.

SARMs sound great but we are likely looking at 8-10 years before they are available, if it ever happens.[/quote]

1. And that trust has to work both ways.

2. Women have felt this way for a long time. Perhaps more options out there for women than men at the present time, but each has to be weighed for their effectiveness and reliability, their side effects and their ease of use.
