A birth control pill for men, that's fair. It makes more sense to take the bullets out of the gun than to wear a bulletproof vest.

Travis uses a blunt firearms metaphor to argue for the logic and fairness of male-directed contraception. In the analogy, pregnancy risk is framed as the “bullet,” male fertility as the “gun,” and female contraception as a “bulletproof vest.” The point is that preventing conception at its source—by suppressing sperm production or function—can be more straightforward than placing the medical burden primarily on women. The quote also gestures toward equity: if both partners contribute to reproduction, both should share responsibility and risk in preventing unintended pregnancy. Its punchy phrasing makes it well-suited to debates about gendered expectations in sexual health and family planning.
