Shocking contraceptive for men

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

Men in Serbia are lining up to have electric shocks delivered to their testicles as part of a new contraceptive treatment.
Serbian fertility expert Dr Sava Bojovic, who runs one of the clinics offering the service, said the small electric shock makes men temporarily infertile by stunning their sperm into a state of immobility.
He said: “We attach electrodes to either side of the testicles and send low electricity currents flowing through them.
“This stuns the sperm, effectively putting them to sleep for up to 10 days, which means couples can have sex without fear of getting pregnant.
“The method does not kill the sperm permanently and it does not affect the patient’s health.”

Unless you count the whole electrocuting-your-balls-thing. Jesus. I’m all for new forms of contraception, but stun-gunning your swimmers seems a bit extreme.
Dr. Bojovic also noted that they “are hoping to have a small battery powered version on sale in the shops in time for Xmas.” Cause nothing says stocking stuffer like a mini testicle-shocker.
