Was in a discussion about this over dinner last night. My GF has like a dozen options: from pills, to implants and patches. I can either wear a condom or have surgery. I feel like there is always some male pill on the horizon that never manages to come. Why is it so hard to develop something for men but so easy for women?

Condoms and vasectomies are infinitely better than the options women have. IUDs are very dangerous and get scar tissue grown around them at times, permanently impacting women’s ability to reproduce, and birth control is a hormone altering drug that results in all kinds of shitty side effects. I got a vasectomy a few years ago and it took 10 minutes. For a woman to get a vasectomy, it’s a major procedure and most doctors won’t do it unless the woman is a certain age.
The question is, why are men’s birth control options so good and women’s aren’t.
