It's definitely too popular to blame everything on middle-aged white guys. It's sad that even bloomberg is jumping on the bandwagon.

It is a money issue - it is cheap and effective but needs clinical trials and potentially cuts recurring revenue from women's birth control options.

After reading the article, I agree. The shaming is just how they're trying to get Big Pharma to take it up, but you cannot convince someone to reduce their salary willingly.

Are you sure you are commenting on the correct article?

Yes - from the article:

"The fact that the big companies are run by white, middle-aged males who have the same feeling—that they would never do it—plays a major role"
