Female politician proposes law to fine men $100 for masturbating

A Texas politician has filed legislation that would see men fined $100  for masturbating unless they are doing it in a sanctioned session at a hospital or clinic.

Jessica Farrar, a Democrat, created the "Man's Right To Know Act" to highlight how women have been affected by targeted healthcare legislation in her state, particularly relating to abortion.



She proposes that, ejaculation outside either a vagina or medical facility should be considered an "act against an unborn child, and failing to preserve the sanctity of life".

Ms Farrar told mysanantonio.com:

 "A lot of people find the bill funny. What's not funny are the obstacles that Texas women face every day, that were placed there by legislatures making it very difficult for them to access healthcare."
