I guarantee you the same people working to ban abortion and female contraception will go after this too.

Schadrach ,

Male contraceptives are difficult to approve to begin with, specifically because there’s no political will to expedite anything that benefits males as a sex. They don’t need to go after this sort of thing until something actually gets approved.

The FDA also requires tighter standards regarding side effects because they do not prevent or treat a condition that the patient has (because pregnancy is not a concern for male persons). If you ever hear someone talking about a male pill and implying that the guys in the study couldn’t deal with relatively minor side effects, it wasn’t the patients that ended the study and it wasn’t because patients were unwilling to continue using it.

There was also a pill derived from cotton plants, but it had two major issues: The first was that the difference between a contraceptive dose and a toxic dose was too small to be comfortable. The second was that sometimes (but not always) the effect was permanent.

There’s also a technology developed in India for a sort of reversible vasectomy that requires an injection of a polymer in each vas. It started out as an attempt at an artificial heart design, in the 70s was used as the basis for a water pump, and still later became the basis for the contraceptive. US IP rights to it were bought by a US company in 2011, and a slightly different formulation of it was in testing until 2023 under the name Vasalgel (which proved less reversible than the original). The rights were bought by a different company in 2023 who are looking to try to bring it to market under the name Plan A For Men.

Wouldn’t compression of the tissue starve it if oxygen and cause necrosis?

What? Why would you permanently compress it?

RememberTheApollo_ ,

TIL about the meme, but to continue hypothetically - any sort of pressure to either hold the ends of the type in the mechanism, or if the tube continues through the mechanism and a “pinch” is done to prevent flow.

There’s a big difference between this and getting snipped. The difference is, like, vast. It’s a vast difference.

wait till this comes with a monthly subscription

So a toggleable vasectomy.

Trouble is you need a several days (maybe a week or more) and/or a few ejaculations to actually be sterile after a vasectomy… So this isn’t the kind of thing that you can flip on in the moment and you’re safe.

explodicle ,

I’d imagine most men would only need to actually use the switch twice in their lives anyways. So having to wait a couple weeks wouldn’t be too bad.

ArcaneSlime ,

Better to keep it off until you and your wife are trying for a kid than keep it on and flip it off for saf(er) sex. Why keep your cum on while you’re just walking around?

FooBarrington ,

Mostly for fashion reasons

Noedel ,

They told me three months. In case the wires reconnect

IzzyScissor ,

I see two casings for switches. Do you have to toggle each ball individually or something?

Also, how do you remember which way to flip the switch? Can it get turned around?

randomdeadguy ,
@randomdeadguy@lemmy.world avatar

I know, right? Do you just flip one and run at 50%?

rmuk ,

Flip them on and off repeatedly to put them in pairing mode.

Google turns down the lights and turns on the balls.

i like how each tube has an individual switch. for when you only want some cum

finley ,

That’s not where cum comes from. Your testes only produce spermatozoa

Nommer ,

No that’s where the pee is stored.

Sidyctism2 ,

Its so you can decide if its gonna be a boy or a girl

I’d just forget which one is on and which one is off. Also I have zero need for the on setting.

This is the real reason Data doesn’t tell everyone where his off switch is.

This is an idea from a book by john scalzi called starter villain.

werefreeatlast ,

Like others, I don’t have a use for my balls anymore. It sure would be nice to keep them around looking good though. But anyway, could I please just get the euphoria stimulus! I don’t really care for all the gooey mess.
