    (4) This section shall not apply to the discharge of genetic material:
    (a) Donated or sold to a facility for the purpose of future procedures to fertilize an embryo; and
    (b) Discharged with the use of a contraceptive or contraceptive method intended to prevent fertilization of an embryo.

    If you’re going to rub one out do it in a condom. Or claim that sock is an intended contraceptive.

      contraceptive method intended to prevent fertilization of an embryo.

      Have we forgotten the pullout method? Blowjobs, handjobs, etc also seem to be methods intended to prevent fertilization. Even masterbation is a fine way to prevent fertilization.

      I’m also a bit confused here. My 6th grade biology taught me that you have eggs and sperm and that when they combine, you get an embryo. You don’t fertilize an embryo, you fertilize an egg.

      Like most of these laws, it seems this one was written by idiots or written specifically to not be enforceable.
