On the one hand, I love the idea of lots of lawsuits against these mutilation doctors. On the other hand, WTH was this moron expecting?!?

See this was a big thing I was thinking about the other day. Women who want to get their tubes tied or get a hysterectomy have to jump through dozens of hoops to do so. Because doctors are worried that she will regret it and potentially sue them.

  1. They usually have to be in their 30s. Not 21, not 18, certainly not 13, but 30+.

  2. They have to get permission from their spouse or significant other often.

  3. They often have to either already have kids or freeze embryos.

Yet we are letting 13 year old children undergo much more drastic changes that involve sterilization, for a procedure that supposedly prevents suicide, but statistically does nothing to this effect.

What am I missing here? Is this not crazyville?

You're missing nothing. This is crazyville.
