Guys, let's talk about your balls for a sac, uh...sec.

My advice is, NEVER DO ELECTIVE SURGERY. Even if it works, there's always potential for some stupid thing to go wrong. Plus you're more likely to get Necrotizing Fascitis in a hospital than anywhere else.

This is good advice, followed closely by "make the woman get some sort of surgery instead."

Yeesh. Even if I were considering getting a vasectomy (never gonna happen!), I definitely wouldn't after reading this thread. I'ma scared.

Naw, just start a new relationship with a hot transexual.

I agree, but having a vasectomy isn't the only way a man can take responsibility.

[third grader]okay. I won't ever ask another question again. [/third grader]

Encyclopedias are good for the science stuff but not so good for conveying real life experiences.

The original post asked questions that were essentially scientific in nature -- stuff that could easily be discerned from a website. Will it not take? How long until I can resume intercourse? These are questions that can be answered with a fair amount of certainty. Hence my overly snarky and assholish response.

As for a man taking responsibility, I suppose we could throw in agreeing to pay for (or split the cost of) birth control, being tested regularly, etc. Though for pregnancy the options are kinda limited.

Those don't always work, do they?

Dude, condoms have a 98% success rate and for that 2% that fails? They were using it wrong. Seriously, biting the condom, putting it on half-way, double-condoming (which actually increases the risk of a break), or dumb common sense stuff like that. So, if you're smart with a condom -- you'll be fine.

if used properly, they're over 99.99% effective.

I'm just thinking instead of spending $6 to $12 a box depending on quality and features not to mention the trash component, I mean who wants used rubbers in a landfill? That's the only contraceptive option that I can see for men other than abstinence which ain't an option.

Well, there's radiation but I still need my hormones. There's the clinical trial of the male version of depo but I'm reluctant. I already have moobs, thank you very much.

Pulling out. Every teenager knows that method of birth control is at least 25% effective, especially while standing up a week before your period on a full moon and you urinate afterward.

Fine? You can try to explain that to my brother, then. Back in the day, he and his then-GF were using protection (he would later explain that they were using it right, and don't anyone even try to tell me they weren't, because I trust my own brother). It didn't work - she got pregnant anyway. Now don't get me wrong, they were blessed with my nephew whom they, and I, love very much, but the fact remains: the protection they were using failed.

Oh yeah great plan there.

My mother got a tubal ligation when I was little. 10 years later she had a miscarriage due to being on cholesterol drugs.

There is no 100% birth control aside from abstinence. So everyone just remember that.

^ I hope the other incision is just out of sight.

FYI, I've never had an issue after mine was done and it's been 6 years. There was no way I was going to let my wife have a more invasive and potentially dangerous operation.

Thanks for the info folks, I'm thinking of getting one myself.

chronic pain, regret, depression?

And that's the way I feel. I'd sooner go under the knife for a simple outpatient procedure than have my wife go in for a hysterectomy of some other shit that could seriously fuck her shit up. y'know?

Condoms, Coitus Interruptus, making sure the little lady is on the pill, doing something besides vaginal intercourse...

The things men do for the women they love... I'd be quite reticent to let anyone get anywhere near my junk with a sharp object. It's just too darn scary. Besides, I'm honor-bound to have kids one day. Someone has to make sure that there's at least a few people in the next generation who aren't idiots. (Don't let my internet activities fool you. I'm not even half as crazy as I sometimes seem.)

Encyclopedias are good for the science stuff but not so good for conveying real life experiences.

Does anyone even print actual encyclopedias anymore?

Re: Gous, let's talk about your balls for a sac, uh...sec.

I went under the blade 14 years ago and have never experienced a single instance of even the sleightest discomfort ever since. Plus hundreds of thousands of "field tests" prove that the procedure was 100% effective

Prepare yourself, however, while spread eagle during the procedure, for the smell of burning flesh as the smoke rises while the Dr. cauterizes your junk (at first I though someone brought in some food but nope - it was me all along ) Procedure on a Friday night... back to work on Monday.

Also, when you're ready to try this baby out for the first time, you have to wear a condom. Now this is a little scary, but hang with me. "Afterwards" you will likely find blood in the condom all swimmin' around in whatever the hell you just ejaculated. THIS IS NORMAL. And it doesn't hurt but it may shock you if you're not prepared. It's just post op bleeding that needs to get flushed out.

And there you have it. That wasn't so hard was it?

(erm... OK "hundreds of thousands" might be a sleight exaggeration, but it's pretty close )
