If a man is against abortion then he better at least have a vasectomy. He has to do his part in preventing unwanted pregnancies in the first place. The procedure is harmless and reversible, no reason not to do it.

Men should be doing their part but vasectomies are NOT a reversible contraception method. Yes, they can sometimes be reversed, but the success rate is not high enough to be considered reversible. Instead, advocate for men to use existing methods, get vasectomies when they never want kids, and support research for new methods!

Vasectomies are designed to be permanent. Reversal procedures are highly technical, cost thousands of dollars, and are usually not covered by health insurance. It’s better to just freeze sperm at that point.

Yes more people need to learn that they’re not as reversible as they tell us!! It’s a great, minimally invasive, permanent bc option for men who are sure they don’t want kids! If they’re not sure, they should freeze their sperm or use other forms of bc

What are the existing methods that women can trust? Men poke holes in condoms. They also have been known to make it so the pill for the morning after does not work? I’ve had a man tell me it was morning after and it ended up being a small ibuprofen pill- I was lucky enough not to get pregnant. Also what if the condom breaks? Like fr if there are other existing options lmk

Sleep with men you trust, you can provide your own condoms, be educated and know what the pill looks like or go with the person or buy it yourself. Like yes bad shit happens some men are horrible but let's not pretend you can't mitigate risk

My dad would get vasectomies every other year. It’s fine.
