This was already coming true before the Supreme Court ruling. There are many celibate men out there who are not impacted by the coming abortion bans at all. This is one of the ways male celibacy can negatively impact women’s rights—women’s rights don’t matter to alienated men.
Exhibit B:

About 1-in-3 men aged 18-to-24 years reported no sexual activity in the past year (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…), which is #NotAllMen, but a fairly significant number.

A significant amount of the 80%-or-more of women who’re sexually active are sharing partners.
NOTE:

It's estimated that the success rate of a vasectomy reversal is 75% if you have your vasectomy reversed within 3 years; up to 55% after 3–8 years; between 40%–45% after 9–14 years; 30% after 15–19 years; and less than 10% after 20 years (nhs.uk/conditions/con…).

@ResistersInfo @Androphillia @afsc_org @CCW4COs @WomensAction As the @NationalNOW argued, "Congress’s decision to exclude women from the male-only registration requirement denies women a key aspect of their citizenship. To reap equal rewards of citizenship, women must equally bear its burdens" (supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/20/2…, p. 4).
@ResistersInfo @Androphillia @afsc_org @CCW4COs @WomensAction @NationalNOW The National Organization for Women (@NationalNOW) knows the cost of passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (#ERA) is women being subject to the draft, which is why NOW wrote the amicus curiae brief cited and has fought for women’s inclusion in the draft.

Are you against the ERA?
Adding the Ervin Amendment (that exempted women from the draft) lead to the 1970 Senate defeat of the ERA. See, Mariclaire Hale and Leo Kanowitz, Women and the Draft: A Response to Critics of the Equal Rights Amendment, 23 Hastings L.J. 199, 200 (1971).

@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip @BLS_gov @pewresearch This is not an apples to apples comparison.

So-called unpaid work included “routine housework; shopping; care for household members; child care; adult care; care for non-household members; volunteering; travel related to household activities; other unpaid activities.”
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip @BLS_gov @pewresearch Going on a shopping spree to buy things for yourself as retail therapy is not really labor for and yet your source includes it as unpaid work, but the Pew Research Center (@pewresearch) and I excluded it in our analysis of the American Time Use Survey.
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip @BLS_gov @pewresearch Volunteering and caring for those outside the household were also excluded from the Pew Research Center (@pewresearch) and my analysis of the American Time Use Survey as neither activity necessarily benefits the household and so is not labor FOR the household.

@espeyraunza @Oneiorosgrip @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @BLS_gov @pewresearch Your source uses the same dataset but a different year. The time amounts are not significantly different. The data underlying your news source supports my conclusions. Try again! 🤣
@espeyraunza @Oneiorosgrip @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @BLS_gov @pewresearch The first Table 8 of the @BLS_gov’s 2012 American Time Use Survey (bls.gov/news.release/a…) demonstrates that the #GenderedLaborGap was the same problem I articulated in my thread. It is not just something that existed as a freak accident of statistics in 2017 or 2019.

@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip False. If you add up both the unpaid and paid labor, on average, men work more total time than women creating a #GenderedLaborGap pursuant to (as an example) the @BLS_gov's 2017 American Time Use Survey (bls.gov/news.release/a…) and @pewresearch's data (pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018…).
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip @BLS_gov @pewresearch American Time Use Survey (with 2017 as an example) shows that women on average are not spending enough more time with their kids, doing chores, or anything else to explain women's lack of time working.

On average, men just work more in America (considering both paid and unpaid).
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip @BLS_gov @pewresearch Let's do the math:

Table 8A, column 1: Men: Women:
Household activities: 1.31 2.34
Caring for household: 1.01 1.85
Work-related activities: 5.46 3.37
==========
Total: 7.78 7.56

@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip For millennia, when men were the sole custodial parents after divorce, women were neither asked nor required to pay child support. Men had to support the children of whom the men had custody.

Why can’t modern women handle the same degree of responsibility as men of old?
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip Regarding when men always got custody in divorce, consider "Lagging Behind the Times: Parenthood, Custody, and Gender Bias in the Family Court" by Cynthia A. McNeely published in 1998 in Volume 25 of the _Florida State University Law Review_ page 891 (ir.law.fsu.edu/cgi/viewconten…).
@espeyraunza @magpie_2021 @CaeValentine @ALeaftOnTheWind @Oneiorosgrip "[T]he father [was designated] as the natural protector of children because he had the ability to provide for their financial support. Women were seen as incapable of handling legal or financial matters…." 25 Fla. St. U. L. Rev. 891, 897 (1998).

@WrthlssWnderby @TheEcho13 Evidence: male circumcision has not been banned under the same circumstances that female circumcision has already been banned (as both were historically medical procedures in the United States of America 🇺🇸); registration for selective service (and, thus, the draft) still exists.
@WrthlssWnderby @TheEcho13 Male and female circumcision were both medical treatments.

“Female circumcision has been practiced in the United States since at least the nineteenth century… through the early-twentieth century … for the treatment of masturbation … and nymphomania” (muse.jhu.edu/article/44151).
@WrthlssWnderby @TheEcho13 “[S]ince the 1950s that discouraging masturbation was a major reason …[for] widespread circumcision of both boys and girls in the nineteenth century, a campaign which was successful in the former case, unsuccessful in the latter” (cirp.org/library/histor…).
