Laundry Only Thing Separated by Color Anti Racism Shirt

Blair recently spoke with Vogue via Zoom about the Laundry Only Thing Separated by Color Anti Racism Shirt and by the same token and genesis of her book, the joy of vasectomies, and how men can take action. Vogue: You say up-front in the introduction that you’re “a religious mother of six.” Did you include that description because it goes against the perception of who might write this book? Gabrielle Blair: One hundred percent. I did that very intentionally. I know that if people see religious or Mormon or mother of six, they’re going to immediately make assumptions about me, and those assumptions are probably not going to be correct as far as my politics, or my views on abortion, go. But I know that I can use that as a tool, and I can invite people in to listen to these ideas that wouldn’t be willing to do so if I led with “I’m pro-choice.” When I first saw the title, Ejaculate Responsibly, it reminded me of when Roe was overturned, and there were tweets and memes and protest signs urging men to get vasectomies. Sometimes that felt, to me, almost like a cute retort, but this book is a very full-throated argument for it.

I mean, I think it’s both. It’s really pointing out this Laundry Only Thing Separated by Color Anti Racism Shirt and by the same token and double standard, this ridiculousness that we are so swift to regulate women’s bodies. We don’t hesitate. We’re so, so open and willing to do that and absolutely unwilling to even consider a very safe procedure for men. We would never make that a law. There’s no world I can conceive of where that could happen. So it’s being cheeky and showing a double standard. Vasectomies are amazing. They’re so much safer than tubal ligations, and yet tubal ligations are so much more common than vasectomies because we have all these weird myths and stigmas around vasectomy—and also around condoms, around anything that is perceived as affecting men’s sexuality. It’s dumb and bizarre, and it’s totally changeable. These are just conversations that we need to have.
