Women are often refused permanent birth control until their husbands sign off on the procedure.

There's space to talk about the issues men face when it comes to reproduction and birth control. Taking over a post talking about women's bodies and pregnancy issues to complain that men have it as difficult as women will come off as insensitive and sealioning to some.

Taking over a post talking about women’s bodies and pregnancy issues

This is community about twitter, not about women's issues. I know you don't like it but we're still allowed to talk about our experiences here, regardless our gender. No one is "taking over" posts here. We're just talking.

to complain that men have it as difficult as women

No one said this, you're just making stuff up now. Taking about men's issues doesn't invalidate women's issues. I don't know what's the point of silencing men and dismissing their problems. It's not helping anyone.

will come off as insensitive and sealioning to some.

No idea what that is.
