Men, how would you like it if women chose your birth control?

1. that's why I got my vasectomy 30-some years ago....

It took the onus off my partner. Half an hour in the urologist's office and viola! Problem solved.

7. And a couple of tender days afterwards while taking the stairs

Still, it is the easiest and safest permanent method.

12. Do not mention stairs to me

I went back to work the next day. I was selling photocopiers at that time. I went out canvasing and unfortunately chose a London street with all 5 story buildings and no effing lifts. I'd also walked a mile or so to get there. I lasted about 2 hours, caught a taxi back to the office and went home sick.

9. Same here

2. I was going to say "I wouldn't," but she does make it look interesting. nt

3. you know, I don't like that one

because it's not ALL men - it's GOP men - and some GOP women.

I am sex positive and I want humans, no matter their sexual orientation or gender, to be able to have happy and loving sexual lives.

5. no, it isn't only gop men--remember stupak-pitts?

you may be sex positive, but the woman-haters of the legislatures and churches are not. this is simply an attempt to get those jerks to see things from the other side.

[RainDog]

8. I guess I have a hard time recogizing them as democrats

but, again, I do say it's not all men.

however, if any feminists want to start a forcible castration vigilante group for the women-haters - I would really be tempted to sign up. lol.

(just joking, agent mike)

14. we know it is not all men--however, I don't hear a lot of d' men in the legislatures around the

country opposing this woman-hating garbage.

hey, agent mikey--where do YOU stand on women's bodily autonomy?

[RainDog]

15. I don't know how someone can be a democrat

and side with religious demand over equal rights for women.

The compromise the administration offered is reasonable b/c it does not have catholic organizations directly offering contraception. What I don't understand, however, is why this matters since Catholics do not follow this dictum. It's like a joke - it's like saying to Galileo that, of course the earth doesn't revolve around the sun - because that was the traditional belief.

The idea that people may not use birth control in any situation is simply delusional.

The state may not collude with a minority of religious believers to force others to face discrimination because they work for this or that corporation - as in churches that lobby to influence law.

16. unfortuntely, people can call themselves whatever they want--randall terry being a case in point

this whole issue of fighting about contraception is nothing new--the only thing new is how openly and virulently they are doing it.

[RainDog]

18. this is the 2010 tea party Republican faction

and it looks like they've taken over the Republican party.

and this is how they govern.

4. Mine did...

Actually we both agreed a vasectomy was the right answer for us. I took the occasional eunuch jokes in stride.

[HopeHoops]

6. That was MY choice almost 17 years ago.

Fifteen minutes of being a baby on a table and two weeks of getting stitches caught on EVERYTHING!!!!

[MarianJack]

10. Good Post.

I am furious at this panel of old farts presented by grand theft auto izza.

PEACE!

[peace frog]

11. There are advantages

to changing from a working model to a sporting model. YEAH baby.

[EC]

13. How about we start the meme that

Viagra makes men permiscuous. Isn't that their reasoning about the pill, we suddenly become whores?

Every single man I knew that had viagra, had it to keep up with the young girls they were cheating with.

[tledford]

17. lol eom

[FrodosPet]

19. They DO choose my form of birth control

It's called ABSTINENCE!



(Yes, I laugh to hide the pain of knowing women avoid overweight, middle aged, sensitive men with underdeveloped junk like the plague)
