Switch off your sperm with this new male birth control

Experience the sinking feeling, that anxious self doubt of “did I leave my balls on?” (a sensation similar to the nagging feeling you’ve left the iron on or the stove but with fewer house fires and more unintended pregnancies)

this looks crazy painful

id rather just have the kid(s)

if i witnessed someone turning their balls off like this id jump out the nearest window tbh……

this is disgusting i don’t want machinery inside my ballsack

Yeah no who’d want this amazing reversible birth control? Let’s just keep forcing birth control on women, making them take pills that literally include side effects like hormonal imbalances, blood clots, heavier and longer bleeding which can lead to anemia, and literally “sudden death”. Because birth control should definitely be the responsibility of women only.

Men are so weak that they can’t stand the thought of something inside their ball sacks. I have an IUD, motherfuckers. I HAD SOMETHING METAL PAINFULLY SHOVED THROUGH MY CERVIX INTO MY UTERUS TO TRY TO PREVENT PREGNANCY. No anesthetic, no numbing. Just a rod right up my cervix. Wanna know what that feels like? Not pleasant. Oh! And I got an IUD because hormonal birth control pills were causing migraines and heart palpitations. But something in your balls? Nah fuck that shit, that sounds invasive.

Y’all over here saying you’d rather have the kids then take the burden of birth control and family planning off your woman and let her continue to suffer with the current forms of birth control that don’t even work 100% of the time? You’d literally rather have to be responsible for a human being for 18 years than get a simple 30 minute procedure on your fucking saggyass ballsack? Are you fucking serious?

I’m just saying it’s better to be shot at by a gun with no bullets than be shot at wearing a bulletproof vest. And the bullet proof vest might kill you even when you’re not being shot at. 

Science has been trying to push male birth control for ages and I’m fucking sick and tired of nothing ever getting funding, or getting FDA approval, or getting recognized as a responsibility for everyone, and certainly not just the responsibility of women. Fuck this patriarchy bullshit. 

“Hey, take this potentially lifethreatening medicine for literally the next 40 years of your life, because I don’t want to touch my own balls for a half second.”

Yes, men have fewer options for personal birth control, because literally almost every single form of it is rejected by them for ridiculous reasons that are far less than or equal to the discomfort or side-effects involved in birth control methods that involve solely women. 

It all boils down to men not giving a fuck about the women they have sex with as long as they aren’t inconvenienced. They would rather a woman take ~40 years worth of pills that can cause a heap of life-threatening health problems, or have invasive surgery, or have an IUD, or or or anything as long as it means they don’t have to do shit. Look at how many men don’t even want to use a condom. I mean, hey, a 30 minute outpatient surgery to install an invisible switch that doesn’t affect their long term fertility at all is too much trouble or too painful. But fuck knows these are the same guys who would tell their girlfriends or wives to go get an IUD or have a tubal ligation like it’s a mani-pedi. Assholes.

I’m close to six months off of my hormonal birth control and I’m still suffering from the side effects. When I brought condoms home and expressed how this was the form of birth control I was leaning towards now my partner spit out, “oh I don’t really like wearing condoms.” Oh. I’m sorry sweetie, I didn’t realize I chemically forced my body back into the hormonal state of a nine year old girl all this time just so you could best optimize your nut.

Let me also add: You’d rather have the child. Well you don’t have to go through pregnancy which has potential complications like morning sickness, hemorrhoids, gestational diabetes, anemia, hypertension, mental health issues like depression and that whole death thing. It also just affects your body in general. I have a friend whose belly is still distended from the hernia she got carrying her second child, and she has to take time off work to get it repaired, because people constantly ask her if she’s pregnant (she’s not)

And then there’s the whole loss of income because at some point most women have to stop working thanks to complications with their pregnancy.
