I like that they're selling this as "allowing men to control their fertility" because in addition to being a good sell, it's the truth. Birth control isn't a burden, it's a gift that men have a right to just as much as women.

After falling in love with a French woman she told him to take responsibility for his sperm. Together with his parents, he developed the prototype of the Andro-Switch ring in their garage.

This is the modern Iron Man we deserve.

Iron Man? Would you say FE male?

Dang, if I knew a ball warmer was an effective birth control, we'd have given up condoms long before I got my vasectomy.

I had a vasectomy 14 years ago.

Even if 100% male contraceptive becomes available it was still a wise decision on my part because who knows many mistakes I would have made in the time before it became available?

And, if 100% male contraceptive becomes available, I still wouldn't want to get it reversed. I've never faltered from my position on not having any biological children.
