Men across the nation are engaging in acts of “love” toward their partners by receiving vasectomies as a form of protest against the controversial Texas abortion law.

Dr. Koushik Shaw at the Austin Urology Institute in Texas informed the Washington Post he has seen a 15% increase in men coming in for scheduled vasectomies. After the Texas ban was enacted on Sept. 1, Shaw noted that men were there for the procedure because the law affected “family planning.”
