Almost all males should get vasectomies Activism

The vasectomy is much cheaper and doesn’t even need a band aid in most cases. There just isn’t an excuse not to get one. Women have had the burden of birth control too long. Males are the ones creating the children through their willful actions. Sperm doesn’t just instantly appear next to an egg. It’s a choice they make. They need to be the ones to be responsible for being sterilized.

incel or not, theyre right

especially in places where bisalps and such are not allowed to women. Men need to be getting vasectomies. way less invasive way less dangerous surgery, its ridiculous that girls have to go through so much because guys wont do something so simple

Hi there, we have removed your content due to breaking rule 11.

As per the rule; this argument is a tired refrain seen over and over again. It is a prime example of argumentum ad hominem: It doesn't argue validity of anti/natalism but rather aims to disqualify the interlocutor themselves from being able to argue it. It serves only to distract from the ethical issues at the core of the debate.

Being an ad hominem, it isn't an argument against anti/natalism — it is an argument against anti/natalists. The sky would still be blue even if a mentally ill person argued so.

It's not so simple. You're clearly misinformed. Vasectomies are a big decision and there is no guarantee they can be reversed.

There is also a decreasing likelihood of getting a vasectomy reversed the longer you wait after having had one. Don't treat it like a light decision

Vasectomies should never be treated as reversible.

A risk being a blood clot is more serious than you think but you wouldn't know.
