Background: Men play a key role in bringing about gender equality, since in most societies men exercise dominance in nearly every sphere of life, so male involvement in family planning not only helps accepting a contraceptive, but also ensures its effective use and continuation. Objective: This study was undertaken to know the attitude and behavior of literate males on Family Planning, spousal communication and decision making power sharing equation in Punjab, India. Method: A Cross- sectional descriptive study was conducted with 225 males; both married and unmarried, 75 were selected each from 3 districts of Punjab by random sampling method. A semi structured self administered questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection. Result: It was found that 95% of our respondents were aware about condoms followed by Withdrawal (84%), Emergency contraceptive pills (81%), and Tubectomy (79%) respectively. Out of all the available modern FP methods; Female and Male Sterilization usage is just around 19% and 1% respectively. In merely 23% cases, wives initiated discussion on Reproductive Health matters and for majority of the couples, FP discussions starts after the birth of 1st child. The major reasons for non communication between couples on FP were __ampersandsignldquo;shyness__ampersandsignrdquo; and __ampersandsignldquo;male perception that this is an unnecessary talk__ampersandsignrdquo;. Further it was found that only 65% men reported being comfortable if the female partner initiates discussion on the total number of children the couple should have. Conclusion: Spousal communication and power sharing on decision making plays an important role in promoting shared responsibilities and parenthood and our study reveals that it is lacking in the literate society of Punjab and in order to change this scenario; Community based organizations, Non Governmental organizations and Women self help groups should emphasize on spousal communication and sensitization of men on their female partners reproductive health needs.
