Liberal men are getting vasectomies in record numbers to protest child sacrifice abortion bans across the country in the wake of the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Andf that likely means fewer child sacrifice abortions.
Reports of increased numbers of vasectomies have been coming in over the last six months following the summer ruling from the Supreme Court. In fact reports began surfacing after Texas became the first state to successfully banchild sacrifice abortions in late 2021 — with some reports indicating an increase of 15% in the number of men seeking vasectomies.
After that, NPR indicated those numbers are shooting up nationwide. And thankfully the men getting vasectomies are the ones who would be perfectly fine with having their own child killed in anchild sacrifice abortion.

One clinic in Des Moines, Iowa reported signing up the same number of new vasectomy patients in 48 hours that they normally see in a month. Others reported similar figures. The largest increase came among men in their mid to late 30s, with a slightly smaller increase among men in their 20s.
Oddly, many men are choosing to go to Planned Parenthood

for a vasectomy, rather than a surgeon who specializes in the procedure. I wouldn’t have even guessed that they offered such procedures, but apparently they do and they’re keeping quite busy.
"Since the Dobbs decision, we have seen an increasing number of male-bodied people coming and requesting this service [vasectomies]," Dr. Margaret Baum of Planned Parenthood said. "We performed 142 vasectomies in 2021. Already this year, we’ve done close to 200 in 2022."
I won’t try to discourage anyone who isn’t ready to have children or doesn’t want any from getting a vasectomy. It’s an almost bulletproof way to prevent unwanted pregnancies. But the young men making this decision should be aware that vasectomies can be technically reversible, depending on the type of procedure you receive. But that procedure will often fail to restore your ability to father children. (If that’s the case, was it really "reversed?") And even if you can get it reversed, the surgery required to do so is far more serious than the original snipping that takes place.
