read about this last week at:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/06/11060...

so, here's my question(s):

Guys, would you take it?

Girls, What's your take on this?

I tried asking this under polls, but didn't get much for answers, so i'm re-posting it here.

    I'd take it.

    I think it would be a good idea, but I wouldn't leave it up to the guy to take sole responsibility. If I wanted to prevent an unplanned pregnancy, then I would see to it that I took precautions as well, and not rely solely on my partner.

    The health risks of any medication are definitely something to be considered, but as each person is different, the side effects of medicine vary from person to person. I have been on the pill for some 5 years to help stabilize my hormone levels and it has been a godsend to me emotionally. But there was a time in my 20s when I had an adverse reaction to it.

    So, that is my opinion....for what it is worth.

    I'll be totally honest, I am female by the way. I don't think guys have enough responsibility for it really, I know that sounds somewhat sexist but I just think that guys are more likely to forget to take it, they also wouldn't have the pregnancy to go through if that ever happened, so I don't see the point, and I don't see anything wrong with women taking it.

    I think it'd be a great way for the guy to help out the girl.

    I think if your willing to take it, and your female partner agrees.. whats not to like?

    If the girl's on the pill-- and you use the pill--- you could have sex without a condom... but still use one since that prevents a lot of STI's and STD's
