After last summer's Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization allowed states to ban abortion, urologists across the United States saw a dramatic surge in the demand for vasectomies.

Normally, vasectomy procedures peak towards the end of the year, but the mid-year Court decision led to an unexpected increase in demand in 46 states.

The greatest increases in patients undergoing this elective procedure were in states that implemented "trigger bans" severely limiting abortion access. These states experienced an average increase of 41% in vasectomy rates between July and September, compared to 26% in other states. States such as Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah saw rates rise by more than 40%.

The post-Dobbs patients opting for vasectomies tended to be younger than the typical candidates. Data from Komodo revealed a small but consistent drop in the average age of patients undergoing vasectomies in the latter half of 2022.

Motivations behind this trend varied among patients. Some men expressed concerns about the lack of a reliable backup if their primary contraception method failed in the absence of abortion access, as vasectomy has a success rate of over 99%. Others were motivated by the fear that vasectomy itself could be outlawed next. Among this younger demographic of patients seeking to take control of their reproductive responsibilities were men who saw their decision as an act of solidarity with women.

Due to longstanding patriarchal constructs, vasectomy is viewed as a sacrifice for many men, involving recovery time and potential risks, along with misconceptions and concerns about its impact on masculinity. In reality, recovery time for this simple 30-minute outpatient procedure is 2-3 days, and there is no clinical evidence to support the notion that a vasectomy leads to a decreased sense of masculinity. The procedure does not have any direct physiological or hormonal effects on masculinity, sexual function, or masculinity-related characteristics.

In fact, by opting for vasectomy, men share the responsibility of contraception and alleviate the burden on women. By doing so, these men further embody the traditionally masculine traits of responsibility, self-reliance, decisiveness, and courage through taking an active role in family planning.

While the overturning of Roe v Wade has decimated women's rights in America, the increase in vasectomies following the ruling may be seen as a small consolation, a small step toward the long aggrieved concept of gender equity. As more men take proactive measures to dismantle the patriarchal idea that both conception and contraception are solely "women's issues," they act as leaders showing others the intrinsic value in the dignity and selflessness of their decision.

While our nation's leaders continue to restrict the rights afforded to pregnancy carriers, we are fortunate to have a younger generation of the impregnator class recognizing the devastating, often deadly effects of these laws and mastering the art of doing something about it.

FGC #658 Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons

Bad news: this damned website has broken my brain. When last we left the Fustian Gaming Challenge… Well, it was Christmas. But before that, there was the official end of the FGC, and I maintain that my argument for ending that project was sound. I am a different person from when I started the FGC nearly ten years ago (!), and it is foolish to continue with a format that had solidified before…

Fighting Abyssal god gives me the same feeling as fighting Alexei in TOV.... I just realized.

Being beaten over and over by smt using similar strats to you is awesome especially when you finally get a plan. Plus both their themes go HARD. I need another boss fight that gets me pumped like these two.

Swagger Blonde's Retro Pap Double Dragon Nintendo Game Boy

[megahorous]

I decided ter re-play Double Dragon Neon, because I thought it would be easy and I was reminded of Skullmageddon because someone just wrote a very cute story involving him to some extent !

-- Plus it's kinda seasonal because there's a graveyard and jiang-si and a Skeleton in it

-- Poor Skullmageddon; he is lonely. <3 But I don't know if he should be kidnapping gentlewomen to date them; they might not like that unless they say it's ok.

-- Come to think of it, this is kind of like the game Mighty Final Fight, because in that one Belger was motivated by a crush on Jessica and it had kind of a lighter tone. I wonder if they will ever remake Final Fight again

-- They should make Beat 'em up Dommes real; I'd marry one and be like what up WIFEMEISTER whip anyone today ? I worry about you. And she'd be like, "same old, same old...." [being tired of whipping the same old people every day] Never mind

-- I actually hated this one the first time because I didn't understand you had to build up your man, just like in River City Ransom. Just you use Tapes instead of Food
