Ied rather be responsible for the contraception. I would always worry that my partner hasnt taken his pill. Women are more reliable because we are the ones getting pregnant. The men might slack off a bit & not understand the consequences like a women does.

I am so over taking the pill. Its time to let men take responsibility. I want my husband to have a vasectomy. Men need to be encouraged to do this. Its unfair that women should have to constantly take artificial hormones which cause all sorts of side affects.

I agree with both points, I hate taking the pill, it makes me feel bloated and I always put on weight so it makes me feel pregnant, on the other hand I could not put that much trust in my partner to take his pill everyday. If i have to take it, I know of the consequences and think of them constantly

I think its important for women to adjust thier contraception, your requirements change over time.you have to find the right one, I gained weight and acne on the others, this one i've lost weight and gianed better skin. Shop around girls, and re-assess regularly. As for men... well, i'm in two minds

Why should only one person be responsible... why don't both sexes take it that way your still responsible for your own actions and not having to rely on someone else

Both parties should be responsible
