For women, it is expected that we take caution when it comes to our reproductive system. Why? Probably because women are the ones that actually grow the baby and give birth. Men however… well, lets not go there for now.
Whether it be the pill, patch, insert, or some other random weird thing that we are expected to put into our bodies that change our hormones so that we can’t grow a baby.
Who the hell came up with the idea of ‘Yeah, lets manipulate womens’ hormones, that sounds like a great idea.’
Actually it was in 1960 that the ‘pill’ was approved and became the main contraceptive. Currently there are countless types and brands of contraceptive. And they all have one thing in common.
We all react differently to them.
I recently switch from a pill form to an IUD. Both of them suck, it’s mostly just a pick of the lesser of two evils.
On the pill I was an angry skinny monster. With this IUD I’m a hungry oily emotional ball of acne.
What the hell.
Yes, an IUD is a non-hormonal contraceptive. But, being on a hormonal contraceptive for more than a couple years and switching to the IUD is having it’s backlashes and withdrawals.
Common side effects:
according to: here
- Fucking spotting
- Nausea
- Tender boobies
- Headaches
- Weight Gain
- Psycho mood swings
- Almost non-existent sex drive
- weird discharge, yeah…
And other sites might say something completely different.
Like from this site
It says birth control DOESN’T cause weight gain. Well… my extra five pounds that refuses to go away even if I’m boarder line anorexic begs to differ. Although, that article is highly re-donk-you-loss.
There is not escaping the psycho that comes from PMS or birth control, women basically get to chose which crazy they want to be.
Angry
Fat
Hormonal

And men think we are legitimately crazy.
No, women are not crazy. It’s years of having to be the gender that has to be manipulated in order to be responsible. But, when we’re not responsible we’re suddenly a slut, whore and many other mean names.
Yes, there are contraceptives for men. It’s this weird latex thing. Which is kind of gross when you think about it.
Like, oh hey sexy, let me just slip this form of plastic onto myself to insert into your body, but there has to be some type of gooey fluid on it in order for us not to get plastic rug burn.
Or! Oh boy,
Hey sexy, let me just insert this weird spongy thing into my vagina.
Who’s idea is that?!?! Seriously!
Is it just me that thinks all contraceptives are weird as hell?
Or the fact that birth controls are still taboo,
Quick, while no one is looking and I’m gonna pop this pill before I forget so I can bang that hot waiter.
Forget racism, it’s women that are still a major taboo.
There are things for the reproductive system that seriously blow my mind. (That’s an unintended pun)
Like, spermicide. Yes, that’s a real thing.
Let’s get one thing straight. Birth Control is weird. We put a lot of unnatural things up in there that can cause all sorts of problems with our emotions, our physical well being, and yet, we are looked down on if we do not do it.
Who’s the real victim here?
