I would say 12ish and older, that's when the hormones really start to kick in. I doubt a twelve year old has any intentions of having children, though I know there are crazy teens out there who want to be moms.

I can't pretend to speak for all males by any means. I for one would not take no male birth control, I will stick to rubbers. There is already so many things that are lowering sperm count etc, no thanks. Its like a vasectimy(sorry spelling), they say it is reversible, the few males I knew that got one, and tried to get it reversed failed. They could not have kids. No thanks, right now I want no kids, I am raising two nieces as my own as a single parent. Maybe the world will take a turn for the better one day and I will want to have kids. That is why I choose to keep my testicles intact.

I threw it in long ago. Why is that a problem for you?
Given the specific statement Santorum made it is rather apt.
You do not agree?

I am not sure what is up with broken rubbers. Do people not know how to put them on properly? I am 30 years old, been having sex since I was 12, not once has a rubber broke on me. I guess it is possible I am super lucky, but that is a lot of sex, and I have no super luck in any other area.

I can't say I don't try to be! I don't want to be a father until I am ready, as a person, and financially. Getting a girl pregnant too early was always one of my fears. That could have something to do with it I suppose. Sorry for the quick edit, I don't want to derail the topic too much, although it is really related.
Rates of condom breakage during sexual intercourse and withdrawal are approximately two broken condoms per 100 condoms used in the United States. The failure of condoms to protect against STD transmission or unintended pregnancy usually results from inconsistent or incorrect use rather than condom breakage. www.cdc.gov...

How is it not her fault? Women are supposed to be the smart ones right? Look, they have the prize between the thighs, it's theirs, no one else's, maybe they should be more conscience of a man not being the one who gets knocked up and getting the drunken one-nighter's last name. Face it, no one wants to be responsible for their actions, hence the lack of believers in God, and those people keep crying when others want laws to protect them from being wrongly accused. False witness. Making a human think he created another human when he did not is a moral crime and he deserves to have a law that protects him from such a horrific lie.

Most girls I know on the pill, are on the pill not so much for the birth control aspect, but to help tone down the hormone changes. The only male equivilant to hormone control I know of males taking is stuff like viagra. That scares me really. I have never heard of a pill that guys need to take that heals the problem of being hard too much.
