In the first clinical trial of its kind, a nonhormonal oral contraceptive that reversibly stops sperm production has just been deemed safe for human use....The trial did not assess the pill’s efficacy in reducing sperm

Uh, lol...I have to admit, I'm not really going to start caring about whether it's safe until I know that it actually does what it's trying to do.

How can you even honestly say it's a "contraceptive that reversibly stops sperm production" without qualification, if you haven't even determined it fucking works, yet?

They know it works, but not how well it works
