As someone else said, irresponsible does not equal untrustworthy. When I was on the pill, I had major problems remembering to take it. We always relied on a second method of birth control because of this. Does that mean that I was "untrustworthy" in regards to the relationship? Dude, I wasn't trying to get myself knocked up so I could trap him into staying in the relationship or anything -- y'all know how I feel about kids. I just have a bad memory. That doesn't make me a bad person, mmmkay?
I'd definitely be okay with a guy taking the pill -- I just wouldn't make that our only method of birth control. But then again, I'm neurotic about birth control. Most people overestimate how effective it is. The pill is 99.9 percent effective only if you take it perfectly every single time, which almost nobody does. Backup methods are never a bad idea.
