It's not a procedure you'd expect a 28-year-old to be planning. But for Lydia Echols from Texas, having her fallopian tubes removed is the price she's willing to pay to ensure her reproductive rights.

Newsweek spoke to five women who have either undergone sterilization procedures or plan to in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump's victory on November 5. They all expressed fear their reproductive choices will be taken from them under Trump's administration.

"If I am to be denied any rights in the next four (or more) years, I will not give them up without a fight," Echols said.

Last week, a 39-year-old from Washington state, who did not want to be named, underwent a bilateral salpingectomy, in which her fallopian tubes were removed.

"I am not happy that I felt forced into a surgery I did not want to alter my body, I feel like the election tied my hands and forced me to be sterilizedthat is horrible," she told Newsweek.

The issue of abortion and reproductive rights was a major one in this year's election. Trump, who took credit for the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022, removing the constitutional right to an abortion in the country, has repeatedly said that his position is to let the states decide their own abortion laws.

Uhm? Maybe their not reproducing is a good thing? Crazy.

If she's getting her tubes tied to insure her reproductive rights I think she's just saying she can't stop hoaring around.

Must remove ability to reproduce to preserve my reproduction rights.

We used to ensure dumb people were publicly shamed and humiliated

Eliminating your ability to reproduce ensures your reproductive rights?

Makes sense.

Probably a win for society this woman does not reproduce.

LOL, upset about altering HER body, but no problem altering the babies body by ripping it to pieces.

At 39 she isn't far from having mother nature remove her reproductive rights.

Reproductive rights = your choice who to sleep with and the consequences that come with it.

Killing babies =/= reproductive rights

Depends. If she was on the Pill for a number of years, she might not go into menopause until late 40s early 50s. I was 52 when I was done with menopause, for instance.

Have these idiots never heard of an IUD?

First, It is something, I would expect a 28-year-old promiscuous female to plan. It is a worthwhile option to consider.

Second, Tying the fallopian tubes is currently the least evasive procedure. Tying the tubes can be reversed and therefore is a method of birth control. Removing the fallopian tubes to prevent pregnancy, is a form of sterilization preformed by authoritarian governments, e.g. NAZIs.

Third, This does not ensure her reproductive right, it just takes her out of the fertility gene pool. (win/win)

I know every single male who isn't in a hurry to make a baby has no problem knowing he doesn't need to worry about oopsing into becoming a father.

This sounds like one of those "Don't tempt me with a good time" kind of thing.

Seems an effective way to fool around and not put an unborn child at risk, pretty reasonable.

Yikes. But it is better than murdering someone else.

Doing it hastily because Trump was elected is not reasonable.

Claiming it is "reproductive rights" is stupid.

That's nothing more than a bunch of narcissistic, virtue signaling, lack of responsibility.

My guess would be either too ugly (not necessarily physical) and undesirable to enter into and maintain a relationship, or

ignorant and desiring to merely sleep around without any consequences or foresight into what life will be like in your 40's and beyond.

Basically, a way of saying it's Trump's fault that their lives are miserable.

GOOD. It's almost like natural selection. The sooner the blue haired, nose piercing idiots are all gone, the better for everyone.

Mentally ill.

Amazing the mind judo libs have been practicing about abortion rights going back to the states. They act like if their life is in danger they won't be able to get an abortion.

First, that's bogus. Maybe their doc won't do it but they can always find one who will.

Second pregnancies that pose a risk to the mom and leave her with the choice of terminating the baby or dying herself are rare. To go completely ape over the very small chance this might happen and combine it with a bogus potential refusal of medical care if it does, smacks of just crying to make a political point.

She chose to get her tubes tied. So in other words, she still has reproductive rights.

The ones tying their tubes because of Trump are not ones that any rational male would want anything to do with anyway. No loss.

We still can

Was I disappointed in the Biden / Kamala mail in ballot victory? Very!

Sun came up in the East and set in the West.

I got up and went to work the next day.

These kind of thoughts and things these folks are doing is mental illness.

Lydia Echols has been moved to the easy woman column in the spreadsheet.

Raincoat up gentlemen, not for birth control but for VD.

A few less liberals having kids.

why do you need to do that when you are going on a sex strike to "show us" MAGA misogynists?

I am so confused these days, I give up trying to understand the mentally ill.

This is called Darwinism.

Trump should create a new agency, 'Planned Non-Parenthood', with funding to help sterilize these freaks.

I could get behind THAT kind of gov't spending.

I wish they all would.

Good.
Stupid SHOULD hurt.
