"In a statement to WLBT News, Blackmon wrote, “All across the country, especially here in Mississippi, the vast majority of bills relating to contraception and/or abortion focus on the woman’s role when men are fifty percent of the equation.
This bill highlights that fact and brings the man’s role into the conversation. People can get up in arms and call it absurd but I can’t say that bothers me.”
Did you miss this?
(4) This section shall not apply to the discharge of genetic material: ... ( b ) Discharged with the use of a contraceptive or contraceptive method intended to prevent fertilization of an embryo.
So basically it's illegal to do so without the intent to fertilize an embryo... unless doing it as part of a contraceptive method? Isn't abstinence - e.g. not having sex - a legitimate method?.... wouldn't masturbation be a way to manage abstinence?

I kept looking for the Onion link and never found it.
You should read the actual article then as you will be surprised to discover what this guy's actual goals are.
I did read the article. While I understand he's trying to even out the responsibility for pregnancy, I'm at a loss to understand how this will legitimately help in any way.

Makes sense. They're all a bunch of dicks.
(a) Donated or sold to a facility for the purpose of future procedures to fertilize an embryo;
This means it's legal to pull out and fill a jar to donate to such a facility.
🤣

I know its Mississippi but this guy has to realize this targets women with a bias. Men: "Don't masturbate or have sex for fun!"... Damn that sucks.. Women: "Don't masturbate or have sex for fun!.. oh and don't ever release an egg again". Wait I cant exist as a woman pre menopausal? Nope
Does no one read the article? He literally did this because it shifts the focus from the woman's role in abortion to men's

Unfortunately, since their joke is badly written, it might be interpreted has you said. Yet, please notice, with the title of this law ( “Contraception Begins at Erection Act” ) that it ~~is targeting~~ was supposed to target men.
Both the clitoris and the nipples can become erect. (I know it's a joke but I can help but smile thinking of an erect clitoris) Lol
Yes it's fun to look at this joke in different ways and to think of how it could be written in much better ways.
That and I would worry that if people took it too seriously, it could lead to a lot more rape.

If the Democrats aren't going to be useful, I'm glad they've at least decided to be a little funny.
It's a race to the bottom now. And the Republicans have a huge head start. Dems are nosediving to catch up.
To highlight how absolutely stupid this bill is, it sounds like it would outlaw menstruation and nocturnal emissions.
Land of the free.
Edit: it sounds like this is intentionally facetious to point out the absurdity of other pro-life bills.
It's really telling how much the Overton window in the US has shifted that you thought this was sincere to start with.
TBH it's more that I have a naive work ethic and assume someone performing such a serious and impactful job would only do so sincerely, but I agree.
Nah, it ahows you how fast people are to comment without reading the article.
Menstruation is already outlawed if out includes an unimplanted but fertilized egg.
It's just very hard to prove.
I would love to outlaw menstruation too but my fucking body won't listen to me
Careful, that post could be used against you in the court of law!

Yes, correct, it is as absurd as pro-life ideas.

Sure, some may say it’s absurd, but masturbation inspector is a good paying, high quality American job that cannot be exported overseas, and not a job I’d trust to AI.
That state senator is a visionary!

I didn't see the party of the politician in the article, so no idea if it is written in jest or just regular old Republican whackiness.
The most entertaining part is that it is written as applying to men, but as written it is gender neutral and would penalize menstruation.
Edit: It is a Dem having a lark.
You can vote against a bill you introduce. Look at Moscow Mitch.
