One in every 200 women will conceive after a tubal ligation. (I was one of those 200.) Two in 1000 vasectomies fail. EVERY. METHOD. OF. CONTRACEPTION. HAS. A. FAILURE. RATE. #prochoiceisprolife https://twitter.com/blatantsockpupt/status/1249030506030694413">https://twitter.com/blatantso...
Not to mention how insanely difficult it is to find a doc willing to perform 1 on you if you’re under 35, single, childless, don’t have the # of kids some rando stranger thinks you should, etc. (My quest took TWO YRS, and I was 25, divorced, w/ a toddler.) https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/9kxam7/tubal-ligation-requirements-doctor-denials">https://www.vice.com/en_us/art...

And here’s the original misogynistic, moronic tweet, ahead of his likely deletion:
PS: Don’t even get me started on adoption. I am an adoptee. My existence is not evidence that my mother was anti-choice—it’s evidence she was ALLOWED no choice. #abortionishealthcare #prochoiceisprolife #adopteevoices
PPS: I should have written, “I was that one in 200,” in the 1st tweet in this thread. I conceived after my tubal. Too many women do, but that’s not information most OB/GYNs share, unfortunately.
