And what's to complain about a bore needle in the balls? As if inserting an IUD up a hole the size of your urethra opening isn't at LEAST as painful? And don't get me started about the fun side effects of birth control.
I applaud twistedmosaic for also being a real man and being willing to go through with something like that, in this case. |
Bullshit. Your preferred method of birth control does not make you a 'real man,' and this isn't a case of competition. Properly, a man and a woman should work together in order to determine the best possible method for them as a couple, and the man giving 100% so the woman doesn't have to do anything isn't conducive to that. If I were with a partner right now I would be willing to consider taking a hormonal birth control pill, so long as I knew it to be safe and effective. I would not allow someone to stick a needle into my testicles (or vas deferns, or anywhere else in the scrotal area) and I don't think I'm any less of a man for it; it's just not something I'm comfortable with.
As for IUD's, well frankly I'm not in favour of those either. They remind me of medieval torture devices. Regardless, I don't think it's quite correct to compare a woman's cervix to a man's urethra, given that a man will never squeeze a baby out of his johnson.
