To be horrified at the idea of mandatory vasectomy

theonerealdiva22 · 15/05/2019 21:11

So now people want mandatory vasectomy for men. This disgusts me for several reasons

  • I knows several men who fight for pro choice and this is what they get.
  • they want "control of their own body". Yeah more like women have control of a man's body as well
  • it will lead to future problems. If we do this then there will be people in a few years time complaining about it like the abortion debate now.
  • it's not as reversible as it seems. Apparently it gets And harder to reverse as time goes on. So if your someone who decides not to have kids until 40 aka later in life (no shame on that have kids whenever you can safely have them) but if you did that theres less of a chance
  • abortions still won't be fully unwanted. There will still be the situation here and there where someone gets excited to start a family, husband dies, Loses everything and can't support baby (hopefully none of that ever happens to anyone reading this)
Am I the only one who feels this way. Share this if you agree with me to give EVERYONE control over their own bodies

Your DS sounds a bit thick tbh

@Outofinspiration grown up? He's 15!!!!!! This is the stuff they're told about at school

I assumed he was grown up as you had said about him being an advocate for women's rights etc.

Seriously, if this is true (and I don't think it is but hey ho) then you need to do your job as a mum and reassure your distressed DS that no one is going to be forcing him to have a vasectomy!

Don’t be so fucking stupid. This is how civilisation ends, when people can’t use their fucking brains.

Quintella · 15/05/2019 21:31

Yeah, it's true OP. They're rolling out the first round of mandatory vasectomies shortly. Frozen food aisles in Tesco and Morrisons are being turned into willy clinics.

AnyFucker · 15/05/2019 21:31

Stop being silly, op

ICJump · 15/05/2019 21:31

Honestly, take a breath, then have a thick about it.

titchy · 15/05/2019 21:31

People where we live aren't nice in fact illegal activity is regular and always covered up

What you mean where you live criminal go around hacking at random blokes' bollocks?

RosaWaiting · 15/05/2019 21:31

wondering where you live

seriously OP you have misunderstood

people are just demonstrating the equal action if it were taken against men.

interesting that it provokes outrage.

Spinnaret · 15/05/2019 21:32

People are forcing what down his throat every time he leaves the house? Where in earth do you live that this is happening? Do you really not understand that people are just trying to force a parallel view to the control of women's reproductive rights? If your DS is as pro-choice as you say, he should be able to grasp this. Or is it that actually, when the shoe is on the other foot, suddenly he becomes a lot less comfortable with control?

I don't think the apple fell far from the tree!

BestZebbie · 15/05/2019 21:34

For context:
Mandatory vasectomy has managed to make it into law on eugenics grounds a couple of times - America in particular did it (and on a wider scale than the Nazis did shortly after). It has only ever managed to get passed, so far, as something to impose on people seen as less-human, on whatever spurious grounds - not usually the "man-in-the-street" (unless he does something to particularly annoy the government).

Would they not be known as Chilly Willy Clinics? 🥶 🗡🍆

Emmapeeler · 15/05/2019 21:36

Don't worry yourself, that would never happen because it is something which restricts men's rights, not women's

Quite.

OP - maybe just don’t read twitter?Confused

Fucking best auto correct I've seen for a long time.
Op as Anyfucker said stop being so stupid

AppleKatie · 15/05/2019 21:38

OP if you aren’t trolling I suggest you see your GP because you clearly aren’t well.

AntennaReborn · 15/05/2019 21:38

Absolutepowercorrupts · 15/05/2019 21:40

Ok, sorry Anyfucker didn't say stupid, silly was the comment, my mistake.
But I do think your a bit daft to think that this could happen. Men will never be forced into having vasectomies because Men

Absolutepowercorrupts · 15/05/2019 21:42

You're a bit daft not your

StickOfRhubarb · 15/05/2019 21:43

Your hysterical.

I can't imagine being so ill informed.

edwardcullensotherwoman · 15/05/2019 21:43

You've had my first ever report OP, I agree with a PP, this is either trolling or you are very unwell.

PurpleDaisies · 15/05/2019 21:44

I’m very confused by this.

ihatemyjobsomuch · 15/05/2019 21:44

You can’t seriously believe this? Do you live in the UK? Do you honestly think the government are going to shell out cash to give every man in the country a vasectomy against their wishes? They can barely afford to spend more than £3.65 per inpatient meal, do you have any idea how much it would cost to a) make vasectomies law, because I’m pretty sure they’d have a legal fight on their hands
b) perform a vasectomies in every man in the country while there waiting lists that are backlogged by months as.
c) deal with any post op complaints, complications, legal issues.

Drogosnextwife · 15/05/2019 21:47

Sounds like a great idea!

MashedSpud · 15/05/2019 21:47

Odder than odd.
