TOKYO: The leader of a Japanese conservative party has apologised for saying the solution to the nation’s population crisis would be to ban women from getting married after the age of 25 and have their uteruses removed at 30.
oh I would LOVE to have my uterus removed! I tryied but.the doctor keep saying that “you may still want to have kids”. IM 40! and I never wanted them until now, really doubt I’ll change my mind radically
Try talking directly with a surgeon. Doctors can be hesitant about fairly invasive surgeries like that, but surgeons almost always want to cut.
It’s a vastly different situation but I had to do something similar for a carpal tunnel release. Doctors danced around the issue for years giving me braces, stretches, and work notes. But one call with an orthopedic surgeon and I was in for a consult within the week and surgery a couple months later.
I don’t know if it’s changed here, but even as a guy trying to get sterilized without being married nor having kids was work. I found someone to do it and paid out-of-pocket to get it done. I’ve heard similar stories from women living here.
Idk about nowadays but I think childfree (or related sub) on the other site had a list of known good doctors who’d do vasectomies and tubal ligations without the whole bs about but you might want kids (or more kids) later/let’s ask your husband bullshittery.
Feels like kinda burying the lede here.

edit: why don’t I have autonomy.over.my own body?
Your doctor is saying that … are they also refusing to help you get it done?
yep

That’s really fucked up, I’m sorry. Especially because it’s an informed decision.

Because you live in the US?
no I don’t
Til this is a thing
What in the cinnamon toast fuck
LMFAO
That’s quite confusing actually, don’t they want people having more children, not less?
That means the men are free to marry each other right? Right?
Is that a requirement right now? If you marry after 25 you have to have your uterus removed by 30? Hence why he wanted to ban it?
Weird requirement.
No.
There are two things this person was suggesting:
ban women from getting married after the age of 25
and
