I told myself (and Morag) I wasn't going to follow the comments and get annoyed, because this is a big step forward in the way that society possibly looks at responsibility for contraception, so ultimately it's a good thing, but... argh! Are we really going to have to slog through all this crap first?

You'll noticed my response to the first comment :->

There are going to be side-effects, and people are going to complain that it's a pain. It's not going to be for everyone.

But I'd go with it, providing the side-effects aren't too bad.

Yes, I saw that. Well done. :)

No, it's not for everyone, but the fact that there is a choice available is great. Making it so men and women have an equal responsibility, or at least the potential for one and all the risks that assumes, is a very positive thing.
