Ohio Democrats Propose Satirical Bill That Proposes Fines for Ejaculation Without Intent to Procreate
- Ohio Democratic State Representatives Anita Somani and Tristan Rader introduced the "Conception Begins at Erection Act," making it a felony for men to discharge semen without intent to fertilize an embryo, according to Morgan Trau at News 5 Cleveland.
- The bill includes fines of up to $10,000 per violation and has exceptions for masturbation, sperm donation, contraception use, and LGBTQ+ intercourse, as reported by WTRF.
- Dr. Somani stated, "If you're going to penalize someone for an unwanted pregnancy, why not penalize the person who is also responsible for the pregnancy?"
- Austin Beigel called the proposal "beyond ridiculous" and argued that it mocks basic biological concepts.
