Ok, some do but why hope she's on the pill (and that her pill works), that the condom might not break and so on.

6. hells yeah

As long as I'm clean and she's clean - anything that gets rid of the dreaded pleasure-killing condom is a good thing.

10. Knowing what the pill does to my moods...

I'd hate to find out what the male pill would do to my SO. But if he'd be willing, I would be very supportive of that.

Otherwise, we're talking vasectomy.

14. Implants or injections, no. A pill ,yes.

Might be scary side effects with progestogen injections but a pill might have less side effects. It takes a while to find the proper dosage for insulin so I would assume that the same would apply for progestogen, thus creating a chemical imbalance.
