Essay: "Men could eliminate abortions in 3 months or less without ever touching an abortion law"

Gabrielle Blair posted a long Twitter thread about abortion. Here are all her tweets presented as a single essay. She makes a good case that men are 100% to blame for all unwanted pregnancies, and that abortions could be eliminated without making them illegal if they would simply wear condoms (or at least pull out before ejaculating). The entire essay is worth reading. Here's an excerpt:

Why would men want to have sex without a condom? Good question. Apparently its because for the minutes they are penetrating their partner, having no condom on gives the experience more pleasure.

So there are men willing to risk getting a woman pregnant which means literally risking her life, her health, her social status, her relationships, and her career, so that they can experience a few minutes of _slightly_ more pleasure? Is that for real? Yes. Yes it is.

What are we talking about here pleasure-wise? If theres a pleasure scale, with pain beginning at zero and going down into the negatives, a back-scratch falling at 5, and an orgasm without a condom being a 10, where would sex _with_ a condom fall? Like a 7 or 8?

So its not like sex with a condom is _not_ pleasurable, its just not _as_ pleasurable. An 8 instead of a 10. Let me emphasize that again: Men regularly choose to put women at massive risk by having non-condom sex, in order to experience a few minutes of slightly more pleasure.

Now keep in mind, for the truly condom-averse, men also have a non-condom, always-ready birth control built right in, called the pull out. Its not perfect, and it's a favorite joke, but it is also 96% effective.

So surely, we can expect men who arent wearing a condom to at least pull out every time they have sex, right?

Nope.

And why not?

Well, again, apparently its _slightly_ more pleasurable to climax inside a vagina than, say, on their partners stomach. So men are willing to risk the life, health and well-being of women, in order to experience a tiny bit more pleasure for like 5 seconds during orgasm.

Its mind-boggling and disturbing when you realize thats the choice men are making. And honestly, Im not as mad as I should be about this, because weve trained men from birth that their pleasure is of utmost importance in the world. (And to dis-associate sex and pregnancy.)
