echidneofthesnakes.blogspot.com and her commenters speculate a little on what the effect might be if a reliable male equivalent to the Pill developed:
•It can’t in any way be accused of causing abortions, so that argument of the religious right against contraceptives would no longer hold water.
•If a man’s taking contraceptives, then getting pregnant requires both partners be on the same page.
•It eliminates the risks of impregnating a one-night stand, which might encourage men to have more of them.

This is a topic echidne has discussed before and one argument some people raise is that men won’t want to take birth-control, period, regardless of the benefits. True? False? Your thoughts?
