Brilliant!
Also, I’d like to see this brainiac figure out how to kill many million sperm instead of just one ovum, with a pill. Surely that should be easier, but there’s an anti-woke male patriarchy conspiracy, amirite?
All you need is a white labcoat, goggles, some vials, a pocket calculator and clipboard and BOOM… Science, Bitch! Surely the “EUREKA!” moment should happen within a couple of months, but it is being kept from us! The male patriarchy is yadda yadda whatever… and here’s an extra yadda for good measure!
Disclaimer: I had a vasectomy.
But still, this person is under-educated in the same school system that spits out maga-types on the opposite side of the political spectrum.This is yet another symptom of the severe under-education that Carl Sagan warned us about in The Demon-Haunted World: Science As A Candle In The Dark. The kind of under-informed, holier-than-thou attitude that lets fascism through the front door, because…
bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRitEThe same fascists, religious batshit zealots and incels who want women OUT of schools, OUT of the workplace, they want them IN the kitchen, illiterate, barefoot and pregnant: “That should keep them under our thumb!”
EXACTLY like it happens now in places like Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia.All I’m seeing is I can seed my own country if I try hard enough.
Ok Musk.
Pff that lazy fuck pays someone else to do the work for him like for everything else
Someone else is going to run that turkey baster.
I’ve been saying it for years. We should stop any and all funding for erectile dysfunction. Best birth control in the world is for men to stop being able get erections.
What is wrong with you?
9!? You think I can cum 9 times a day!? And apparently hit the egg every fucking time too? I don’t mean to question the conclusion because I think birth control should be both parties’ responsibility, but I think your premise reveals a distinct lack of grasp on biological reality. Why stop at 9? Why not 900? Really drive your point home! My dick is going to be useless after number 2 or 3 anyway.
I think she liked the number nine because 9 months pregnancy so she used the number 9 for everything in her hypothetical scenario
“hit the egg” 🤣😂😭
Leys gooooooo 9000 !!
If i cum today and i want to cum tomorrow i will already feel a weaker sensation, probably if i cum 2/3 time in a day that sensation will be as good as laughing at a joke that isn’t even that funny
Cocaine is your friend here, good sir.
“Okay, yea, my nose is always bleeding, my heart is on the verge of exploding, and I am at constant risk of having a seizure at any time. But my dick is rock hard and I can cum like 10 times before I start bleeding from the chafing. Wanna fuck?”
Who recommends coke to help your sex life? What is this, 1988? My guy, no one needs that much sex. If you do, and you use coke to help you, you might have two addictions.
I’m being facetious: it would actually work, but it’s a stupid idea. Forgot the /s.
I got snipped so my wife didn’t have to do the hormonal bullshit. Her doctor is putting her back in it because women’s bodies literally do not want them to be happy.
I’m almost 54 and menopause has not yet been achieved, though my system is constantly teasing/taunting me with it.
I couldn’t agree more.
That’s why I got the chop. Firing blanks for the last year.

I’ma get a vasectomy as soon as I can drive
There was a post the other day pronouncing female like tamale and it made me take a while to read this post and made it a little more fun, too
That’s because hormonal birth control for women takes advantage of existing biological processes to prevent pregnancy.
Men don’t have any known biological processes that can be utilized like that, although it’s been consistently studied for decades.
Nature is sexist, got it.
Basically. There’s no biological advantage for men to shut down sperm production, so evolution never pressured a mechanism to do so.
Iirc there are trials for pills for men right now
So far, there’s no male birth control pill on the market. But there are two types of birth control pills in the works: YCT-529 and dimethandrolone undecanoate. YCT-529 is a hormone-free male birth control pill that aims to stop your body from making sperm by targeting the vitamin A signaling that makes sperm production possible.
Researchers studied the effects of this male birth control pill on animals. They found that in mice, after four weeks of use, it was 99% effective in preventing pregnancies. In primates, sperm counts dropped in just two weeks of use. Researchers also completed a phase 1 human study to test how safe and tolerable the drug is. Now, they’re recruiting participants for a phase 1B/2A study, but more research is needed before this drug can hit the market.
The other male birth control pill, dimethandrolone undecanoate (DMAU), may also be available as an injectable. This one is a hormonal birth control, meaning it impacts your male sex hormones, causing them to temporarily stop your body from making sperm.
In a phase 1 study, participants took DMAU for 28 days. But the participants weren’t relying on DMAU for birth control, so more research is needed. Even though a phase 2 trial is in the works, it’s not complete.

Huh. I thought the trials had been completed, but I guess not. Feels like I remember hearing about them like 4-5+ years ago.
You’ll continue to hear about them every few years for the rest of your life. Its always “just a couple years” away.
Also, that imply i have to plan doing sex weeks before if i have to take the pill

Same with the female pill. The intended usage is that you take birth control regularly, regardless of how often you actually have sex.
Also we have condoms too so i don’t get what everyone is talking about
I know I should use them but I really don’t like using them.
As long as you both don’t mind, enjoy
Happy father’s day.
Condoms are horrible for birth control.
Yes, but even when used correctly the chance of pregnancy is still significant.
And many people do not know how to use them correctly.
This is a yes and situation. (You should use condoms regardless of other contraceptives, for sexual health reasons)
And there is some progress too afaik
There’s been “progress” every few years for decades. Male birth control is basically the medical equivalent of battery technology.
I’ll believe it when a pill makes it to market.
I mean… you know that you can buy batteries today, and they’re much better than the ones you could buy a decade ago?
The point is that on a regular basis there are articles about some amazing new battery breakthrough, but it never leaves the lab.
Genuinely kinda wonder why that keeps happening
Most progress isn’t made in sudden huge jumps, but small incremental improvements.
When pubsci articles promise a breakthrough, remember:
- it takes a long time to bring such research to market (think ~decade)
- most breakthroughs are only applicable to narrow niches or work under specific conditions
- real-life results will usually be worse than lab results
- startups have incentives to make their research appear as important as possible
But instead of waiting for huge breakthroughs, just look at the progress made in commercially available batteries. There have been many improvements in cost & charge density.
Tech illiterate media writing hype articles. Repeats yearly also with flying cars or vacuum tube trains.
Just like cold fusion
I had thought that another part of it was the levels of harm compared to the problem; getting pregnant is incredibly stressful and possibly harmful, up to and including death as a possibility. A medicine that can stop that but has side affects that are less harmful than pregnancy is a lot more palatable. Whereas, for men, the harm caused by pregnancy is zero, so any harm caused by the pill is weighed a lot heavier.
We do have to remember that “First do no harm” is not a universal law of ethics or anything, it’s just the way the powers that be think about things.
It’s really frustrating how often this gets framed as sexist, when it’s a totally different problem. I get why people would equate them but they are very different biological processes. Producing a baby is a complicated process, and there’s a lot of steps that we can intervene in to prevent it. Producing a million sperm is, maybe surprisingly, less complicated and it’s harder to target a specific thing and produce easily reversible results.
Men have had vasectomy on the table for a long time now. It’s just more serious than most forms of female birth control, in terms of implementation and recovery, still not foolproof, and not as easy to reverse.
Even more frustrating is that sexism definitely does exist and play a role. It’s just more about the human parts of the process, like dealing with medical staff, dealing with insurance, dealing with local, state, and now federal governments that want to bar access to women. Looking at the pill side is misplacing the anger.
I am pretty sure there have been attempts at temporarily blocking sperm so not having to do vasectomy for decades and it was not yet successful, it’s not like this problem is not being worked on because scientists are sexist or something
Vasalgel, I was signed up for updates, but after about 10 years I gave up on that and got a traditional vasectomy.
There are also medical benefits to female hormonal birth control besides not getting pregnant.
I think men should consider the potential harms to their partner in their calculus. If a man participates in causing a pregnancy that results in serious complications or death, I would sincerely hope that he would be as devastated by the loss of his partner as he would by suffering the harm himself. If men can’t empathize with their partner enough to consider the risks to her, then he shouldn’t be having sex in the first place.
It’s been attempted multiple times and every time the effects are non-reversible and have horrible side effects.
It’s essentially all the negatives of hardcore anabolic steroid usage without the muscles.
It sucks but the reality of it is guys are basically too simple to disrupt without seriously fucking everything up but woman are more complicated so relatively minor tweaks can achieve the desired effect.
It’s more that there’s not any reason for the body to have developed a mechanism to stop sperm production.
Success in evolution is largely accomplished by reproducing better than those without your mutation. Shutting down sperm production does the opposite.
Those 9 men could prevent women getting pregnant by cumming in me instead.

Honey your desperation is showing.
It’s because trying to shut down what millions of sperm production a day is hard. Even one gets through and your product fails.
Wait…is this what that video game, 999, was about!?
She’s giving that one man an awful lot of credit assuming he can shoot a bullseye 9 times a day 365 days a year.
I have had a vasectomy, but I don’t have sex anymore so is that a double negative and I’m about to birth millions of new lives?
