FULL TITLE: Scientifically Clueless Pro-Abortion Legislator Wants to Fine Men for Masturbating as Act Against Unborn Child
A Texas state lawmakers new pro-abortion bill is doing what she created it to do get attention.
The satirical Texas House Bill 4260, sponsored by state Rep. Jessica Farrar, would fine men $100 for masturbating and require the state to publish an informed consent booklet for men seeking a vasectomy, Viagra or a colonoscopy, among other things, according to The Hill.
The bill is Farrars protest to the abortion regulations passed in Texas in the past few years. She claims it would put the same restrictions on men that Texas abortion laws do on women.
Although HB 4260 is satirical, there is nothing funny about current health care restrictions for women and the very real legislation that is proposed every legislative session, Farrar, a Democrat, wrote on Facebook. Women are not laughing at state-imposed regulations and obstacles that interfere with their ability to legally access safe healthcare, and subject them to fake science and medically unnecessary procedures.
Her bill, which has no chance of passing, would prohibit ejaculation outside either a vagina or medical facility, in what it describes as an act against an unborn child, and failing to preserve the sanctity of life, according to the Independent. It also would provide conscience protections for doctors who do not want to perform a vasectomy or prescribe Viagra because of personal, moralistic or religious beliefs.
What I would like to see is this make people stop and think, Farrar told The Texas Tribune. Maybe my colleagues arent capable of that, but the people who voted for them, or the people that didnt vote at all, I hope that it changes their mind and helps them to decide what the priorities are.
But pro-lifers say Farrar is the one who is isnt thinking. Her bill ignores basic biological facts about human life and abortion.

As Daily Wire contributor Harry Khachatrian commented on Twitter:
It is disingenuous for Farrar to equate male masturbation and ejaculation to the intentional killing of a human life through abortion. A mans sperm and a womans eggs are not separate, individual new life. Only when they are put together do they become a human being a separate, living human entity with his or her own unique DNA. This is well established science.
A sperm has twenty-three chromosomes; even though it is alive and can fertilize an egg, it can never make another sperm, former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop wrote in 1979. An egg also has twenty-three chromosomes, and it can never make another egg. Thus, we have sperm that cannot reproduce and eggs that cannot reproduce unless they get together.
All that makes up the adult is present as the ovum and the sperm are united the whole genetic code, Koop continued.
Pro-lifers do not want to end abortion because we want to control womens bodies, as Farrar implies. Pro-lifers want to end abortion because it destroys the life of an innocent human being inside the womans body. Ending abortion is not about regulating something that has the potential to become a life. Its about protecting an actual, unique, irreplaceable human life from being destroyed.
Okay Farrar. Then we force all women to take pills to stop them from ovulating.
What a moron. Sperm by itself is not a human life.
I’m wanting to bust out with a Monty Python song.
Another clueless women’s libber politician.
If they could enforce it, Texas would have more money than a Saudi King!
This idiot is going see more men die from “DSB” in record numbers if this oasses!!!
Horrible way for a man to die.
This idiot is going see more men die from DSB in record numbers if this passes!!!(fixed)
Horrible way for a man to die.
Sperm can’t feel pain. They don’t have a nervous system.
Takes 2 seconds to look that up.
As for murder, it ain’t a human being until it fertilizes an egg.
Deadly sperm buildup?
Yep. We guys are like beached whales baking in the sun.
If not vented, we can blow up.
How does a man know if that Viagra is going to work?
And they’ll go blind.
So i guess every period a woman has will be classified the same thing.
What utter idiots.
It’s more that we know it isn’t working without it.
Why are female liberal “democrats” almost as dumb as the male liberal “democrats”?
Feminist women like this push men towards ai companions.
This relentless hatred, this war on men and everything male.
They wonder why they end up alone, childless, bitter, and half eaten when they die surrounded by their cats.
Keep it coming, Ma’am. You’ll soon have both dems and republicans asking if letting Women vote was really the best idea after all?
Jessica,
Women are not fined for masturbating, or dropping an egg when they get their period. Your comparison isnt even comparing equivalent acts.
Imagine all the dildos out of work if women were fined for masturbating. Many women would get multiple fines per “massage” session.
Sperm is not a human being.
An egg is not a human being.
What a woman aborts, is a human being, not her.
Cancer that is removed from a person is their body.
A baby is an independent person genetically different from the woman. Its not a persons tumor that is 100% genetically them, their cells.
Thry claim to be the ones that love science and that science supports their views, yet they never seem to understand science, and they quickly abandon science when it crushes their views.
