We keep hearing a "male pill" is only a short way off. Where is it?

Insightful topic debates on Cock rings:

Do Male Performers Use Erection Pumps ?
We have often wondered if they have aids before doing the deeds. In many of the movies we have seen the guy is already rock hard. Not hard, ROCK HARD

Has anyone ever had a problem with a cockring?
We've all heard the horror stories, I'm just wondering if anyones actually gotten stuck or if I should stop worrying.

Recurring Fantasy
I'm currently happy in a long distance relationship but I keep having this reoccurring fantasy. I'm a bisexual in a hetero relationship but find...

Dream ring?
I was wondering, how many contributors own (or have found) their dream ring, whether it's an engagement ring, wedding band, promise ring, or a ring...

Aventurine v Agate v Titan v Omega v Fury: which cockring is the best?
I would like to hear some opinions on these cockrings. Which one do you like the most and why? I thing that it would be the best to focus on three...

I feel the same way... I'd love to see this. At this point, I have an IUD so I'm not in need of any other birth control, but I would love to have male BC available, as a viable option.

I think it'd be great. My pill plus his pill?

I've heard about this. It's supposed to be from a plant that grows naturally in... Malaysia, maybe? I'll need to do some internet hunting. Then I'll get back to you guys.

It's still weird, how the female pill was tested for only 10 years before being put on the market, and it's still the shittiest, most side-effect causing pill ever, and they still sell it, and how they take their damn time to test everything for the male pill even if the things they need to use were used for centuries and they were not side-effect causing and didn't mess with hormones. I've also heard they won't ever put it on the market because they think men would refuse to take it. Fufufuf. I don't think I'll ever see it in my whole lifetime... And yes, we're in 2012 and this thread dates from 2011. Well, my 2011 friends, yet another year without a male BCP.
