pollen is like ink, it get's everywhere, if it's in the same room it doesn't matter what you do you will end up pollenating the females, even if you move to another part of the house, you'll likely pollenate the females. If you don't want to pollenate the other plants then you'll have to kill it or try to get some pollen and save it, sometimes it will last up to 30 days but usually it grows mold and is bad before that.

Imagine if someone cut off your balls, you might die from blood loss (plant might die from loss of vital organs) or you might just die from losing the will to live (same with the plant).

Kill it or else you will pollenate your females and your bud's will be ruined.

You can cut them off but you will still get pollen in the room, that is how you save the pollen is by cutting off the buds and trying to save it. Cutting them off in an attempt to keep from pollenating the other plants isn't going to work.
