      I wouldn’t put my dick in anything that could potentially conceive ever again. I don’t want kids. My genes suck, I’m poor, the world is going to shit and there’s no 100% guaranteed birth control method. Why would I even take that risk at that point?

          If I was still doing relationships I’d probably do it, but that’s obviously very permanent.

              Yes, but I was speaking generally in my initial comment. I don’t live in the US so the whole thing does not even affect me at all in the first place.

            Vasectomies are not permanent, they can be undone

            Edit: After some more reading on the subject it appears they are much less reversible than I had thought

              Very very very small chance the pain is permanent and subsists after reversal (AHHHHH!!!)

              Course we still drive ‘n’ stuff, and that leads to permanent risks… just FYI for anyone who didn’t know

                But that’s kind of like the very very small chance of an adverse reaction to a vaccine. Sure, it happens. But so close to never as to not worry about it.

                Obviously, any surgical procedure, even one that simple, comes with risks.

                  (In Kathy Newman’s voice) So you’re saying vasectomy is vaccination against kids?

                  Yeah definitely.

                  VERY happily took C-19 vax for potential huge quality of life (or just living at all benefits). Can live without vasectomy so deprioritize it.

                  Some dawgs, & perhaps especially happy monogamous men and their partners of course, out there will experience a significant bump in their enjoyment so it’s perfect for them!
