Survey Shows Broad Support for Male Pill and Policies to Encourage Its Use

In 2019, Having Kids launched a campaign for policies that would encourage funding for the approval, marketing, and subsidization of the male birth control pill. From a powerful way to deal with Covid-19 and future pandemics to a means of addressing fundamental gender inequity, the male pill could be the magic pill for many of the crises we face today.

Now, Having Kids is releasing a survey showing just how much people want the male pill and policies that would promote its use.

The results are below.
