I'll miss my vagina after I have to put it under lock and key to ensure I never have kids.

Goodbye Ruth Roe V Wade. Hello, Volcel Police. I'm ready.

    Sounds expensive and since I'm under 30 and not married my doctor might give me serious shit for it and not allow it.

      "Hmm, very interesting doc, but have you considered eating shit?"

        I've heard from women's subreddits over the years that southern doctors in particular give a lot of shit to younger women getting sterilized, and I'm not looking forward to personally dealing with it.

        As for birth control, I'm not on any. Only rubbers.

          Oh, mmm regardless of skin color? You know maybe pulling a Dolezal can help you get the operation.

          I know rubbers are safe, but I'm paranoic.

          Oh, anyways, ligation is quite irreversible, most women who want a child after it need invitro fertilization (nothing wrong happen to the ovaries, it's just that the eggs can't meet the tadpoles).

            I made the decision years ago that if I ever wanted kids I would adopt.

            If I got to a point in my 40's where I wanted kids but refused to try adoption, then for me that would be a confirmation that all I really wanted to do was spread my genes around before I expire.

                I'm not going to create a mini me just so they can suffer the worst of climate change while being stuck having their labor value stolen.

                Meanwhile if I adopt that kid would already exist. They would already be stuck on this earth and by adopting them I would (hopefully) improve their quality of life.

      I think the childfree subreddit has a list of doctors in certain areas that are pretty open to it. But if you do have a long-term male partner see if you can get them to get a vasectomy as that's super easy, no doctors ever challenge it usually and it can be reversed anyways if the guy changes his mind.

      Supposedly, Planned Parenthood is the best bet to get sterilized as a young person.

      my insurance covered most of my bilateral salpingectomy. i got it at 27. i had an endo ablation at 25 which was effectively sterilization, can't carry after that.

      i hate the place but check this list for doctors near you: https://www.reddit.com/r/childfree/wiki/doctors

      We need to get some kind of armed mob together that will show up and very sternly explain to doctors that they either perform the tubal ligation of they get their air tubes ligatured.
