    I’m absolutely not advocating for removing that option. However, increasing the options for male birth control is necessary for a wide variety of reasons, including allowing male partners to take the burden off of their female partner if she isn’t able to tolerate the side effects or can’t find a birth control method that actually works well for her. It is, in effect, another birth control option for women to be able to defer some responsibility to a male partner in a committed relationship.

      I just checked and yeah, your comment didn’t say anything about birth control options for men and only talked about the negative effects of the pill.

      So you see why one would think that you were trying to say that the birth control pill is a bad thing and that we should remove it.
