I loved this:

on vaginapagina on LJ, someone asked this question: "is there any approved/available form of male contraceptive other than vasectomy (that's the one that's normally reversible right?) or condoms? why the hell not?! :("

someone explained why - in short, because pharmaceutical companies do not have the financial incentive to take male contraception seriously since they making plenty of money on the pill, and because no one's giving the research dollar for male contraception. people say it's more difficult, but it's only more difficult to develop hormonal methods, while there are easier ones (such as heat) available and men's fertility or lack thereof is easier to test.

in response to that, someone else said:

"i'm glad someone debunked the fallacy of "it's just easier this way". saves me time, energy, and the extreme pissed-offness i'd experience if doing so myself.

let's play a game where the above were true -- and it were simply a matter of being 'easier' only controlling women's fertility. who the @$#^& cares?? we can develop tomatoes the size of office buildings and glow-in-the dark fish, but limiting the production of sperm is a huge impasse? give me a flying break.

well, so much for not getting pissed off."

heh. :)
