Which state is it illegal to get a vasectomy?

[–] Soulg@ani.social 17 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The post does not specify reproductive rights, it just says rights.

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

it just says women's rights

Ftfy

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Yeah, and women have other rights than those related to reproduction. The person you replied to was pointing this out.

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

They didn't say it was that right specifically

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

No they are comparing men's rights to women's.

Women's rights to life saving medical care (abortion) is being denied.

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

That is true, but it doesn't mean the person you originally replied to is wrong. What they said is also true. Presenting what you did as a counterargument makes no sense.

As far as I know none. But barriers to being able to get one is wildly different. I know in New York, there's a 30 day waiting period after having a consultation with the dr before they are allowed to operate.

Which state is it illegal to get a tubal ligation?

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Which states is abortion, a life saving medical procedure illegal?

Sorry, I don't have a direct men's version of this.

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 0 points 8 hours ago

I don't know.

Which world is a vasectomy and tubal ligation the same as an abortion? Because that was the comment that I responded to.

[–] DempstersBox@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Well I don't know, but have you had six separate $150+ appointments with your doc who asks you questions ranging from "well what does your boyfriend of two weeks want" to "are you really sure?" to "we're going to have to ask you attend this six week course on why it's important to produce a legacy before we can sign off on this. Then we'll see what your insurance has to say"

It seems like the same people that get mad about black lives matter, screaming white lives matter are here.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

No, this is very different than that. This is about supporting one group without intentionally putting down another.

Y'all always tell on yourselves lol

Women have a long history of having less rights than men.

When did they allow women to start voting? That is just one example

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 5 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

First, sorry, but it's fewer rights, not less rights, since it's countable.

Second, sure, that's true. That's not what this is about though. There's no reference above to which group is more privileged. It's only talking about the fact that, in some places, the rights of men (and all people) do differ. I'm sure you can recognize this is true, right? Some states protect (or, rather, don't infringe on) some rights more than others, for all people, right? If you agree then the statement of the OP is definitively untrue, and the comment above is accurate.

[–] DempstersBox@lemmy.world -2 points 4 hours ago

You are a fucking chode

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 13 hours ago

Does anyone in this thread disagree with that? I haven’t seen a single example.

[–] stevestevesteve@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

If someone posted "white women's rights don't vary state by state, but black women's do", they would rightfully be called out for posting nonsense. But you'd be there saying "no but black women have it worse tho" That's the equivalent. It's a clearly false statement intended to make one group an enemy instead of an ally and you shouldn't be defending it so blindly

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Spicy analogy but valid

[–] Bgugi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

The message "black lives matter" was intentionally amplified to sow dissent along racial lines.
