![]() ![]() And it’s not unheard of for men to remove the condom during sex, without the women’s permission or knowledge. In fact, men frequently pressure women to have sex without a condom. So why in the world are there ever unwanted pregnancies? Why don’t men just use condoms every time they have sex? Seems so simple, right? They keep us from getting STDs, they don’t lessen our pleasure during sex or prevent us from climaxing.Īnd the best part? Clean up is so much easier - no waddling to the toilet as your jizz drips down our legs. As a bonus, in general, women love when men use condoms. Amazing! They are so much easier than birth control options for women. Men can keep them stocked up just in case, so they’re always prepared. They’re effective, and work on demand, instantly. Condoms are readily available at all hours, inexpensive, convenient, and don’t require a prescription. In contrast, let’s look at birth control for men, meaning condoms. I’m just saying women’s birth control isn’t simple or easy. I’M STILL GRATEFUL FOR IT PLEASE DON’T TAKE IT AWAY. And again, the side effects can be brutal. If we’re talking about the pill, it requires consistent daily use and doesn’t leave much room for mistakes, forgetfulness, or unexpected disruptions to daily schedules. Oral contraceptives for women can’t be acquired easily, or at the last minute. In fact there are many people trying to make it more expensive by fighting to make sure insurance companies refuse to cover it. Birth control options for women require a doctor’s appointment and a prescription. Unfortunately it’s harder to get than it should be. There’s a lot to be unpacked just in that story, but I’ll simply point out that as a society, we really don’t mind if women suffer, physically or mentally, as long as it makes things easier for men.īut good news, Men: Even with the horrible side effects, women are still very willing to use birth control. And the list of side effects was about 1/3 as long as the known side effects for women’s oral contraception. So ridiculous, that when an oral contraception for men was created, it wasn’t approved… The side effects for many women are ridiculously harmful. ![]() Modern birth control is possibly the greatest invention of the last century, and I am very grateful for it. So just starting with basic biology + the calendar it’s easy to see men are the issue here.īut what about birth control? If a woman doesn’t want to risk an unwanted pregnancy, why wouldn’t she just use birth control? If a women can manage to figure out how to get an abortion, surely she can get birth control, right? Great questions. In theory a man could cause 1000+ unwanted pregnancies in just one year.Īnd though their sperm gets crappier as they age, men can cause unwanted pregnancies from puberty till death. In fact, if you’re a man who ejaculates multiple times a day, you could cause multiple pregnancies daily. But men can cause pregnancy 365 days a year. That makes 24 days a year a women’s egg might get fertilized. And that’s for a limited number of years. Let’s start with this: women’s eggs are only fertile about 2 days each month. Don’t believe me? Let me walk you through it. Perhaps you are thinking: IT TAKES TWO! And yes, it does take two for _intentional_ pregnancies.īut ALL unwanted pregnancies are caused by the irresponsible ejaculations of men. And men are 100% responsible for unwanted pregnancies. If you want to stop abortion, you need to prevent unwanted pregnancies. ![]() I’ve been listening to men grandstand about women’s reproductive rights, and I’m convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. ![]() I’m republishing it here today to mark the anniversary (and because I know many of you don’t use Twitter). That first thread is about abortion, irresponsible ejaculations, why politicians who claim to care about abortion don’t really care, and how I think we need to approach the topic of abortion differently. I wrote a Twitter thread for the first time. Note from Design Mom: Two years ago, I tried something new. ![]()
