    New implant allows men to turn their fertility on and off with the flick of a switch | Daily Mail Online

    End of the vasectomy? New implant allows men to turn their fertility on and off with the flick of a switch (inside the scrotum)
    The 'sperm switch' is designed to divert flow of sperm away from the penis
    Measures 1.8cm and is fitted under local anaesthetic in 30 minutes
    If the man decides he wants a wants to become a father, he locates the implant in his scrotum and flicks switch back, allowing sperm ejaculation
    The first trials on 25 men are set to take place within the next few weeks

    hmm interesting idea. sure they will fail when someone clicks the switch during foreplay. I would suggest making the switch magnetic or similar.

      Smaller men need not apply?

      Is there not some kind of legal discrimination that can be applied here?

        I wonder where it is diverted to?

          Gives a new meaning to "Have you tried switching it off and back on again?"
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                ‘Well,’ said Peter, ‘this old girl, well she wasn’t all that old, maybe thirty, she was on the Pill and she got this bloodclot and the doctor told my auntie it was the oestrogen and she’d better take a different sort of Pill just in case and the old girl down the street, her old man had to go and have a vasectomy so’s she wouldn’t have another bloodclot.’

                ‘Buggered if anyone’s going to get me to have a vasectomy,’ said the Mars Bar, ‘I want to know I’m all there.’

                ‘We all have ambitions,’ said Wilt.

                ‘Nobody’s going to hack away at my knackers with a bloody great knife,’ said the sideburns.

                ‘Nobody’d want to,’ said someone else.

                ‘What about the bloke whose missus you banged,’ said the Mars Bar. ‘I bet he wouldn’t mind having a go.’

                Wilt applied the sanction of Piggy again and got them back on to vasectomy.

                ‘Anyway, it’s not irreversible any more,’ said Peter. ‘They can put a tiny little gold tap in and you can turn it on when you want a nipper.’

                ‘Go on! That’s not true.’

                ‘Well, not on the National Health you can’t, but if you pay they can. I read about it in a magazine. They’ve been doing experiments in America.’

                ‘What happens if the washer goes wrong?’ asked the Mars Bar.

                ‘I suppose they call a plumber in.’

                My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.

                  what happens if you mix up on/off ?

                  Might be good to add a flashing light.

                    indeed as suggested it probably needs some external enabler e.g. magnet so its a conscious decision to switch it on.
