Yep. Men were controlling women for the past 50 years thanks to Roe. "YOU get an abortion. I don't want a kid." And women (in general) let that happen to themselves, no questions asked. Now, the balance of power has shifted more in the direction of women and they have more leverage to insist that a man participates in birth control responsibilities if he doesn't want to be on the hook for 18+ years of child support payments.

I don't want to sound harsh, but every guy hurrying to book a vasectomy knows what a condom is. So he knows he has the choice of something non-invasive.
Condoms kill a lot of the feeling.

A vasectomy eliminates that issue.

The narrative was more -- not my problem -- all yours.

At least its a start to get men thinking more about how they can take responsibility for their own reproduction. Maybe now men will push for the FDA and the powers that be to release the male pill and other forms of male BC that have been studied and tested for the last couple decades.
I never stated anyone is forced to get a vasectomy. Where do you people come up with this stuff?

I stated people are forced to take personal responsibility. They have to stop and think about what happens if they have sex. They then calculate the risk they are willing to take. Us smart ones get vasectomies. Others make other choices, but it's all now personal responsibility and that's a great thing.....unless you are a liberal.

Men have issues with condoms:.
  • allergic to latex
  • allergic to sheepskin
  • condom is too small
  • can't feel anything

4. Doctors have no-problem doing it, they just make sure you understand it is not easily reversed
Not sure where you're going with that.

"Vasectomies are permanent male sterilization" says the professor of urology at Penn Medicine.

There is nothing in the article showing these to be young men.

I always had issues the the condom being too small. WAY too small.

Seriously. No, honestly. For real. I wouldn't lie about something like that.
