Sorry to be a dick, but just had to ask the question. not being a dick at all, these need to be asked :) yes We, me and my wife I had never really thought about kids till we got together and got married tried for years and then got pregnant so was a really happy exciting time the what happens if we ever split crossed my mind but happiest i have ever been in my life and i know the worst could happen but as i say never really wanted kids till i was with her :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P. Administrators Posted September 28, 2012 Administrators Share Posted September 28, 2012 Earlier this week I heard that it is now a 5 minute process and relatively painless as well. I don't know this for sure though, and I'm not looking into it myself. Good luck with whatever you decide Haggis! And congrats in advance for December.

Detection Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I think I would vote for the wife to take the pill vs me getting my bits snipped f0rk_b0mb, Reacon, togermano and 1 other 4 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kreuger Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Funny. Myself and a few coworkers were talking about this last night. I'd refuse to do it and so would the other 3 guys I talked with. One had considered it but changed his mind after our discussion. I'd say you should have her tied instead. At least that way, you can reverse it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis Veteran Posted September 28, 2012 Author Veteran Share Posted September 28, 2012 yeah she cant take the pill lol i would rather be sore for a few days then her getting sterilised too as its a more major op Charisma and oliver182 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah i feel its a bit selfish that they would put their wives through a major op rather than have the snip Either that or cowards For example a Vasectomy you can go back to work the next day if you want to its done under local Anesthetic and is not even needed to use a scalpel Female one your out for a week, its a general anesthetic (of which my wife is allergic to) and is invasive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haggis Veteran Posted September 28, 2012 Author Veteran Share Posted September 28, 2012 Invasive Surgery vs Keyhole Surgery 1 day downtime vs 1 week downtime minimum Ask your wife if she would have herself sterilized and tell her that you would not have sex rather than do it then tell me the same answer with your black eye lmao HighwayGlider 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are things called condoms too, they work (sometimes :p ) Double bubble if you're worried about the 1st one popping :p Chemical castration also an option :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Chemical castration isn't the same thing as a vasectomy. I assume he still wants to "roll in the hay" with his wife. From what I've heard, it's pretty much painless and simple surgery. The only issue with it is that sometimes your "bits" can.. fix themselves >.> Other than that, sounds good :) Charisma 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go ahead and prepare some pink and blue boxes of cigars ;) lol, she was taking the pill before I met her, I didn't ask her to start, but yea, if she can take a tiny tablet once a day vs some crazy surgeon wielding a scalpel next to my nuts, then yea, I`ll leave it up to her :p EDIT - Slow today, just clicked on about the cigars bit..... umm yea, I 'think' I can trust her to take them :p If not, I still have my passport somewhere :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted September 28, 2012 Subscriber² Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'd consider a vasectomy. I do not want children myself, and if my s.o. doesn't want any either it's the easiest solution. Less invasive than her getting sterilised, and safer than relying on condoms and/or the pill.

Messes with hormones and even changes the physiology of the body and who/what types of men she is attracted to. It's way more complicated than people realise. Vasectomy is quick and almost painless these days, is a one-time procedure as opposed to constantly having to take a drug, and often can be reversed (certain types, anyway). I'm all in favour :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art3x Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I had mine done with the no scalpel method. I ended up having 1 stitch because one of my tubes was looped funny according to the doctor. After surgery pain was next to nothing. Couple tylenol and I was good to go.

I'm not knocking you guys' decision, don't take it that way :) It's always just a choice between the two people in the couple, nobody else's business. Just saying, sometimes people don't realise exactly how the Pill works. It's worth doing some research, especially in a situation where a woman you are dating either was taking it before you got together and is going to stop, or wasn't before and is going to start. It can change a lot of things. But of course it affects everyone differently. As I said before, though, it's obviously a very individual thing :) Detection 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
