Publisher Description
In Ejaculate Responsibly, Gabrielle Blair offers a provocative reframing of the abortion issue in post-Roe America. In a series of 28 brief arguments, she deftly makes the case for moving the abortion debate away from controlling and legislating women’s bodies and instead directs the focus on men’s lack of accountability in preventing unwanted pregnancies.
Highly readable, accessible, funny, and unflinching, Blair builds her argument by walking readers through the basics of fertility (men are 50 times more fertile than women), the unfair burden placed on women when it comes to preventing pregnancy (90% of the birth control market is for women), the wrongheaded stigmas around birth control for men (condoms make sex less pleasurable, vasectomies are scary and emasculating), and the counterintuitive reality that men, who are fertile 100% of the time, take little to no responsibility for preventing pregnancy.
The result is a compelling and convincing case for placing the responsibility—and burden—of preventing unwanted pregnancies away from women and onto men.

Vital Reading in Modern Society
This is a really good book with a lot of really good information. Some of it is not 100% correct (literally 2 things), but since those things are not common knowledge, it’s hard to know one must ask, let alone knowing WHO to ask. Still, very important conversations should be started by this book. We MUST stop acting like men are these helpless sex havers, and it’s on women to prevent pregnancy. This is not about men taking all responsibility. This is about men taking ANY responsibility, preferably half.
Every penis owner must read this book and educate themselves.
It is very well researched and very thorough about all the public health issues that are related with irresponsible men’s ejaculations.
Some good points. Too much brain game and exaggeration.
 There are a lot of good points about men taking responsibility for safe, sex practices, and making sure that they don’t aid in unwanted pregnancies. The problem for me arises in the blame game. She constantly shirks responsibility for women, and explains how men are the root of all evil. She makes certain things out to be bigger than they are, and minimizes other things to fit the narrative. I feel there’s not a cohesive answer to the question at foot.
