Ouch!
While we're on the subject... why is that men find it so amusing when girls have
a)Cucumbers in their fridge
b)Banana's in their fruitbowl
???

The male contraceptive pill is actually not far off commercial production. There's a whole bunch of information in the science mueseum on it.
It's all a bit scary - you take a pill once a day which wipes out your sperm count. The only problem with this is that it reduces testostorone too, so you have to inject a monthly dose of testostorone to boost it back up again - sorted!
I think it will be empowering for men!
Women say they won't trust the men to take it - but why not? Are they just afraid of losing control of birth control?

No idea Frankie, I was only passing the results of the Poll verbatum. I had to go do stuff before the end of the prog, so didn't have time to find out the views of people. Sorry.

The science museum poll said that 54% of men would be willing to take the pill.

Hmmm. Still not vey high tho is it.
Admittedly, this was 'The Wright Stuff' on C5 (UK), so I am not surprised the poll is as it was. I only watch it for that girl (can't remember her name) Intelligent and a looker.
Oops that'll be me living up to my title again

Well what do YOU think about it?
(I've suggested this as a talking point BTW)

Shazz, it's because we males suffer from acute fruit-and-veg envy.
While we're not on the subject... why is that women find it so amusing when boys have inflatable sheep in their six foot high beds, which are carefully balanced on photography magazines?
I can vouch for the fact that I have never got pregnant from an inflatable sheep, nor suffered from downy mildew or stemrot.
Babel, it's a good job they didn't see you in that little "off the bellybutton", silk outfit you wore to Edinburgh.

Shazz, could you send them to [email protected] Thanks
Hmmm... I know I'd never manage to take the female pill...

Nevermind. I can take comfort fromt the fact that she's in one of mine... But I only took a few and I don't think you were in any...
