Hmmmm ... could we see an upswing in vasectomies soon ?

[eppur_se_muova]

From some comments I read yesterday, I gather there may be more than a few married men not getting any sex for a while unless they get their little tubes tied.

1. Maybe it will promote more oral sex.....I'd vote for that. 😍

[IggleDuer]

2. Or same sex activity?

N/T

4. Doesn't A Vasectomy Constitute Killing Potential Babies?.....

Will SCOTUS rule on that too?

6. OMG we must regulate penises for sure. All those precious little swimmers.

15. ...

5. Women should go on strike. No housework, laundry, cooking, childcare, grocery, sex.

Let the men figure it out.

Why should women hold up half the sky when we are second class citizens?

8. I mean, but some of us like clean houses, clothes, and sex...

And some of us are also married to men who are squarely on the same page politically.

I agree it’s a good strategy of married to a demanding sort of someone with gross politics but then I’d argue maybe a woman in that situation should really reconsider what she’s even getting out of that marriage.

11. It is symbolic protest of second class citizen status.

A way to show society that we do our fair share and need equal rights.

It is a societal statement not a personal one.

16. And they will get beaten by their husband because they aren't doing

what they are supposed to do. 🤬🤬🤬

[Irish_Dem]

17. Yes women with abusive husbands cannot go on strike. They will be beaten up or killed.

[Elwood P Dowd]

7. The Fascist Supremes will just outlaw that along with

condoms, birth control pills, and any other form of contraception.

9. Yep- when I had my second child...

I naively requested my OB tie my tubes after childbirth and he had to gently explain because my insurance company used the local Catholic hospital it wasn’t possible. Not being Catholic I had no idea a hospital could even mandate such a thing!

I can imagine that nationwide, for both genders.

10. My husband was great.

After our third child, actually when I was pregnant with her, we discussed sterilization with my OBGYN. He said, "Have your husband get a vasectomy. It's cheaper and way easier."

So he went in about a month after our daughter was born and did it. It was a great decision for us.

12. Several of my friends opted for this choice. n/t

13. Lots of really unhappy single guys in bars

Back to the way it was pre Roe and the pill.

14. Easy peasy for a dude.

If I had two kids, I would have had it done after that.
