Re: [malecontraceptives] 1960s...contraception available..to the wrong gender!!

No, it is far easier to find a female birth control. You have one egg
(usually) per month to deal with versus the constant production of
millions of sperm. You either have an egg or you do not. However, there
is still a question as too how few sperm makes a man infertile. People
like Dr. Rock were looking into male contraceptives methods in the 1960s
however, unlike Dejerassi (with the pill) most of them never got anywhere.
If most people had focussed on male contraceptives in the 1960s we still
be back where we were with only barrier methods.
