Young women, including an OnlyFans model, are getting sterilised — and blaming Trump for their decision

Women, including an OnlyFans model, have chosen to become infertile for one very distressing reason.

Some American women are getting elective surgical procedures to render themselves infertile because Donald Trump won the election.

Young women who have chosen to make the radical move said they fear a reproductive rights crackdown under a second Trump administration.

A number of women, including an OnlyFans model, opened up about their decision to Newsweek.

They said they were turning to invasive, irreversible medical procedures to ensure their reproductive freedom remains untrodden upon.

Eden Ixora, 25, of Florida, who creates content for OnlyFans, told the publication, “for me, the idea of getting pregnant is worse than death.”

She said she was making plans to have a bilateral salpingectomy — a procedure in which her fallopian tubes will be removed.

“For me it was a call to action. A need to get this locked in so I don’t have to live in fear that at any moment some random guy can completely destroy my life,” Ms Ixora said.

“For me the idea of getting pregnant is worse than death. I’m doing what I can to protect my right to choose. I am choosing me.”

Lydia Echols, 28, from Texas also said she was considering the procedure due to the election.

“If I am to be denied any rights in the next four (or more) years, I will not give them up without a fight,” Ms Echols said.

Ms Echols told Newsweek she also plans to have her fallopian tubes removed.

An unidentified 39-year-old who has just gone ahead with the procedure said she felt she had no choice after the election results.

“I am not happy that I felt forced into a surgery I did not want to alter my body, I feel like the election tied my hands and forced me to be sterilised — that is horrible,” she said.

Another woman — who said she and her husband both never wanted children — pre-emptively scheduled her appointment to be sterilised in October, claiming she was “fully planning to cancel the surgery the day after the election, assuming Kamala won.”

In describing her choice, to Newsweek, the woman used language that suggested the elective surgery was forced upon her.

“With Trump’s victory, we quickly learned that my choice to cancel the surgery had been taken from me,” she said. “This isn’t a wanted procedure, but one of necessity due to the politics and subjugation coming our way.”

On a post on the “childfree” subreddit about the Newsweek article, women were lauding their decision to get sterilised as young as 21 years old — some throwing around extreme claims now rooted in reality.

“Well when you pass laws that murder women regularly, what are you going to do?” one Reddit user wrote without elaboration.

“I want to get sterilised so bad but I don’t have the money and I don’t want this procedure to come up in my parents’ insurance,” lamented another.

Other women are coping with Trump’s dominant election win with a good old-fashioned sex strike.

Across TikTok and X there’s been a surge of videos of women aligning themselves with a South Korean feminist protest movement known as “4B,” in which participants eschew the “four nos” — having sex with men, giving birth, dating men or getting married to men.

Others have even taken to shaving their heads in an attempt at signalling some sort of vague anti-patriarchal sentiment, or encouraging their viewers to dump their Trump-supporting husbands or boyfriends.

The movement has been widely mocked online, with some — including women — questioning participants’ sincerity, their sanity or calling their behaviour attention-seeking “cringe.”

“Perfect. Evolutionary dead ends cutting their own branches off,” one X user said.

“Sounds like they need lobotomies instead,” added another.

“Nothing says defeat like eliminating yourself from the gene pool,” another poster wrote.

Trump has sent mixed signals about his support for abortion rights.

At times he’s boasted about his role in getting Roe v. Wade overturned — but he’s also repeatedly vowed he would not support a federal abortion ban, even threatening to veto one should it come across his desk.

“I would not support a federal abortion ban, under any circumstances, and would, in fact, veto it, because it is up to the states to decide based on the will of their voters (the will of the people!)” Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social in October.

Soon-to-be first lady Melania Trump also famously made her staunch support of abortion rights known in a clip posted on social media to promote her memoir, “Melania.”

“Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard,” said Melania, 54. “Without a doubt there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth,” she continued.

Meanwhile, the number of abortions since Roe v. Wade was overturned has actually ticked up slightly, which experts say is thanks to the wider availability of abortion pills by mail.
