Men across the US have chosen to get snipped since the supreme court scrapped the federal right to abortion when it overturned Roe vs Wade last June.
Myths about vasectomy – a contraception method popularised as the “male pill” – have long flourished on the internet, fuelling what experts describe as negative attitudes about a procedure that has often been used as a punchline for emasculating jokes. Common misconceptions include that vasectomy is akin to castration or that it affects the libido and hormonal production, said Texas-based influencer Keith Laue, who created multiple TikTok videos about his procedure.
There is evidence that vasectomy rates have “significantly increased” since the court ruling, urologist Marc Goldstein from the Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University added. Many cheered their husbands after they emerged from the procedure in viral videos using titles such as “Snip-Snip! Hooray!” and “Closing the baby factory”.
“My concern is that the videos sometimes offer low-quality health information. People should have access to accurate, evidence-based knowledge. TikTok is not designed to filter that.”
