About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Men are responsible for all unwanted pregnancies. Why? Ovulation is involuntary. Ejaculation is not. It is also true that...

- Men are 50 times more fertile than women

- Birth control is hard to access, use, and comes with numerous side effects

- Vasectomies are less risky than tubal litigations

Yet, it's women who are expected to do the work of pregnancy prevention. Why must women be responsible for men's bodies, as well as their own?

Rather than endlessly exploring how and why we control women's bodies in the highly polarised anti-abortion and pro-choice 'debate', Ejaculate Responsibly makes a witty and unflinching case for why men must be held accountable for their reproductive choices. There are zero consequences for men who ejaculate irresponsibly. It's time to shift the responsibility - and burden - of pregnancy prevention onto men.

Critic reviews

'A gorgeous manifesto.' (Oprah Daily)

'A tactical, full-throated cry for men to step up.' (Vogue)

'Flashes of acerbic humour and eye-opening statistics bolster Blair's common-sense case. This polemic has the power to change minds.' (Publishers Weekly)

Most relevant  
This concise, salient book makes for such important listening.

Within, the author has very thoughtfully, very clearly, very unemotionally presented 28 well-researched and data-led points on why it makes sense for men to take responsibility for their fertility and the role that it plays in causing unwanted pregnancies - instead of our current societal norms and legislation which squarely place the blame and responsibility on women. .

Such an important listen. Going to share this book far and wide with friends, children and my kids’ school in the hopes that it can be part of sex education discussion there too.

Insightful, shocking, empowering. Listen to this book.
