In the beginning of 2022, the IFOP polling institute asked men between the ages of 18 and 24 if, in the context of a couple relationship, they would refuse to share certain aspects of the contraceptive burden that usually falls on women. It appears that 17 percent of them would refuse to share the costs of contraception and her menstrual cycle with their partner. In addition, nearly one-third would refuse to take responsibility for contraception within the couple through regular treatments, such as the male pill or heating underwear.
