Not really...
On the biological level it is trying to stop millions of sperm-cells to sneak in or prevent one egg-cell from being available. In the numbers game it is less risky and more reliable to make the one cell unavailable then to try to prevent the millions from being viable. Even if you shut 99.99% of them down, you still have more risk than having 99.99% chance of preventing the one cell being available.
I'm afraid that however we want the world to be equal for man and women, the biology itself is unfair and needs a lot more time and research if you want to equalize that.
Or use the tie-off snipsnip solution. It is a bit more permanent, but is pretty reliable in preventing.
Can we use proper terminology? Vasectomy is pretty much permanent. Low chance of reverting it and its also likely won't be available for free.
I've done it, no regrets and if someone is "done" with having kids? No brainer.
I've seen how my wife is affected by even the less intrusive options. They ALL suck. That's what we should talk about. Female contraception has downsides. Even the copper coil has side effects. Anything with hormones? Forget it, the side effects from those could be permanent.
I went full circle. Honestly, condoms truly are the best protection available. We were young, we didn't like them, no one does. But beats having to deal with the alternatives.
