A recent study found that the rate of women 18 to 30 getting tubal ligations doubled in the 16 months following the Dobbs decision. The number of young men getting vasectomies also shot up, but men still get sterilized much less often than women.
Blows my mind that vasectomies are the less common procedure. Got mine done cheaply many years ago. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Partner got tubes done recently (so that insurance couldn’t deny her for medically necessary hysterectomy later, what a dumb system we have) and she was miserably bedridden for quite a while, with the scars to prove it. Would have been expensive if she wasn’t maxed for out-of-pocket already.
Toxic masculinity, all my friends that don’t want to be convinced have the worst excuses possible but most times it’s about not wanting to feel like a lesser man.
If I’m not mistaken I live in the place where vasectomy is the most common and some people still think like that. Talk to your the people around you and you’ll see.
That’s so bizare, since I swapped out to unleaded we fuck constantly and not worry about contraception. nothing makes you feel like more of a man than fucking raw dog every chance you get.
I get that reference, but also I’d like to support the statement. I’ve sat on my couch for 2-3 days, frozen peas in my lap and just took it slow. A week later I could barely tell that anything changed.

Anyone have a sane explanation?

No offense but your friends sound stupid.
Lots of people are stupid.
In many ways, our society encourages such stupidity.

Doesn’t prevent some of them from doing it and just pulling out, they believe that nothing will happen because nothing has happened yet…
Women are treated as objects

Getting your vas deferentia snipped is tight!
Maybe you’re making a joke I don’t get, but otherwise: It’s called vas deferens
Autocorrect got me. Plural is vas deferentia.
Wow wow wow, there is a whole lot of Ryan George all over this thread, good to see. He does skits on YT, look up - Pitch Meeting
Sorry, what is the connection to any of what we said?
Well me and my wife are thinking about having another child. Haven’t decided yet. So not getting it done.
That’s completely irrelevant to the question they asked.
Go ask Lemmy for a refund
