Responsibility for men
This is a ridiculous solution for a serious problem. I heartily agree that men should not be forced to be a parent by the accidental conception of a child. I also believe that men need to take a LOT more responsibility for preventing conception. While women have suffered and some died using dangerous birth control methods such as IUDs and high hormone level birth control pills, men continue to blissfully say that birth control is not their responsibility and are perfectly happy to believe that a condom is going to work every time. While I see commercials many times a day for "male enhancement," I see none for methods for male control over conception. GET OVER YOURSELVES! When products come out that guarantee (in so far as is possible, like the pill) men will not conceive a child, THEN let's talk about their "rights" to say whether they want a child that they have conceived.
