Blair builds her argument by walking readers through the basics of fertility (men are 50 times more fertile than women), the unfair burden placed on women when it comes to preventing pregnancy (90% of the birth control market is for women), the wrongheaded stigmas around birth control for men (condoms make sex less pleasurable, vasectomies are scary and emasculating), and the counterintuitive reality that men, who are fertile 100% of the time, take little to no responsibility for preventing pregnancy. The result is a compelling case for placing the responsibility—and burden—of preventing unwanted pregnancies away from women and onto men. --Adapted from publisher description. 001488579 650_0 $$aBirth control. 001488579 650_0 $$aMen$$xSexual behavior. 001488579 650_0 $$aAbortion$$zUnited States. 001488579 650_0 $$aContraception. 001488579 650_2 $$aSexual Behavior 001488579 650_2 $$aPregnancy, Unwanted 001488579 650_2 $$aAbortion, Induced 001488579 650_2 $$aContraception 001488579 650_2 $$aPopulation Control 001488579 655_7 $$aEssays.$$2lcgft 001488579 7001_ $$aSiegler, Bonnie,$$edesigner. 001488579 852__ $$bgen 001488579 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1488579$$pGLOBAL_SET 001488579 980__ $$aBIB 001488579 980__ $$aBOOK 001488579 980__ $$aNPR 001488579 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
