41. Bit of an authority on the subject of vasectomies

Mon Jul 4, 2022, 12:57 PM

Jul 2022

considering that I've had a couple. Doesn't mean you're permanently sterile, I have a 34 year old daughter who can attest to that. What it does mean in my case is that I took my reproductive decision making seriously and didn't expect either my ex or my dear wife to have to shoulder the load.

As they say, talk's cheap. Unless a man wants a child, if he's sexually active there's a really easy way to make sure you're not putting the load on any of the women you spend time with. Of all birth control methods except the condom vasectomy is the least invasive and least dangerous of them all.

Try it, you'll like it. Three of the best decisions I've made in my life.
