(I would have posted sooner, but I couldn't access DU).

I am gay, so clipping my tubes...no big loss, because if I got my partner preggers...WE'D BE RICH!

As a small comfort, my brother, who is straight, single, and will be a doctor in May (....hint...hint) he has said that if abortion becomes illegal, he will end up in jail, because there is no way he will not allow a woman to have an unwanted pregnancy. He's a good little liberal! He also spent a month in Kenya working with AIDS patients.

I agree that the idea of no abortions is insane. I see it as a form of slavery (women are 'property,' or at least their uteruses). However, we don't fight slavery, with slavery. Your signature line says it all. Forced sterilizations in men is no different than those in places like China (for women). Choice is choice, and should remain so.
