I did a similar topic before, but to me it seems like it's consistent pro life ethic.

Vasectomies are reversible, so just reverse it when your ready to have kids.  Seems easier than forcing a woman to be pregnant for 9 months in order to prevent an abortion.

"Should the people who wouldn't murder their baby get a vasectomy?"

Hm... interesting. I think you have this backwards. If you are pro-life, shouldn't you support sterilization of pro-baby murder people?

I am unsure if this is accurate.  Do you have a source?

Moreover, if reproduction is impossible, anyone wishing for a kid may adopt one from overseas.

The pro choice people are consistent.  Moreover, the sterilization is temporary, until you get the vasectomy reversed.

Consistent in baby murder. So, if you are pro-life, presumably you would want to save life.

Therefore, save lives by sterilizing those who would kill a baby.

yes but what if you want biological offspring

also you are very wrong


“Men who get vasectomies generally want a permanent solution,” says Dr. Coward, a urologic microsurgeon performing vasectomy reversals and surgical sperm retrievals in the Triangle.
“However, about 5 percent of men who get vasectomies end up getting them reversed. Because it is so successful in most cases, vasectomy reversal is often the best option for men who change their mind.”

It seems to me a reasonable choice for someone who wants to bang other people, but avoid having kids.
Though there's other methods to lower the chance of having kids, just not as surefire maybe.
I think a person would 'really want to avoid having kids though.
Maybe better to put some sperm aside on ice, in an accredited medical service though, if one changes their mind later.
