Contraceptive pills for men, Would you use it?

                            

A male birth control pill is on the way for men according to a team of researchers. The scientists first discovered  the male birth control pill while carrying out research on cancer and experimented it on mice. They injected the mice with a solution over an 18-month period and saw that the mice had lower overall sperm counts and a decrease in sperm mobility, rendering them infertile but leaving their hormone levels intact. The compound also did not decrease sex drive in mice allowing them to mate normally, nor did it cause other side effects that a hormone-based therapy may cause. When mice were no longer given the compound, their sperm production went back to normal levels and they were able to have babies. This means that an oral male contraceptive may be possible. 

The question now is would you as a man use it or as a woman, would you feel comfortable if any man related to you use it? I would love to know you views on this please.
