Actually I do know who needs to hear it - people like this: https://twitter.com/kazweida/status/1521312672465051649

I know it's not the most important thing right now, but since the Roe v Wade news there have been a bunch of tweets encouraging men to get vasectomies, and/or trying to analogize between female birth control methods and vasectomies, that include some assertion to the effect of "you can just get it reversed later when you're ready for kids".

This is not true. Yes, the vasectomy reversal procedure exists but its success rate is not very good (70% at best), and the likelihood of restoring fertility only goes down as more time passes since the initial vasectomy. This is why urologists advise their patients to consider a vasectomy to be a permanent procedure.

I won't say much more about it, other than it would be nice if more forms of male birth control (e.g. Vasalgel) entered the market soon.

    I will invent a small valve that attaches onto the vas deferens. I will call it the cum-spigot and become the richest man alive.

    I'll reinvest my cum-spigot money into arming leftwing paramilitary groups. They will get all the training and money they need, only requirement is they go by "The Cummunists"
