After 3 children ....
Should my husband get a Vasectomy or should I get my tubes tied?
We both don't want any more kids.
So am I selfish to ask this of him???

My husband got the V. Its a much easier procedure for a man, its just an office visit basically! If you know you are done having children i say go for it because then you wont have to worry about birth control for 30+ years yet! Besides, V's can be reversed if you ever change your mind...

I got a vasectomy when my wife was 8 months pregnant with our third...we were done and I felt it was better for her health long term...so I did it...

No debate whatsoever...

I admire your attitude

I on the otherhand, feel a sharp medical instrument and my Todger should never get intimate

To chocolate if your husband is happy to go ahead then I can't see a problem

Vasectomies are a piece of cake. We never even considered any other option.

He's too chicken and I've had enough stuff happen to my body + I think it's now his turn to sacrifice for the good of the family!

Tell him to man-up...



It's a snap...not pleasant...but easy.....

endymion said:

LMAO, you won't feel a thing!

But it IS freaky when you're looking down there while the doc is doing his thing, and then all of a sudden there arises a puff of smoke. You're like, WTF?!?

Except now that you know it's coming, it's no big deal. If you don't think about it.

chocolatehandles said:

Yes but you want some strange Doctor to operate on his cock with surgical instruments and stuff

Please remember that we men are very attached to our 'lil comrade' Oh we are also big babies as well

RodeoSchro said:

WTF PUFF OF FUCKING SMOKE!!! is someone going to shoot my cock, the chances of me ever having a vasectomy have just reduced to minus zero (if that exists)

What does your husband say?
If he's happy to get a vasectomy, then that is the easier procedure.

After 2 kids, my husband and I both agree that we really don't want anymore. He has offered to have a vasectomy - which is good news for me... but he hasn't got round to getting it done yet. I think he's a bit worried!
I will not push him into it though. It's his choice at the end of the day and I'm happy to wait until the time is right for him.

Until then - no sex!

You didn't know this procedure involves a soldering iron?

You may well laugh Flo but you seem quite happy to force your poor innocent husband into this quasi torture scenario

endymion said:

Hey, they've gotta close up the snipped off stuff SOMEHOW.

And, after it's over, you get to spend a day lying around with a bag of frozen peas on your lap. Fun times!

endymion said:

I found him a female doctor whose name ends with the letters C O X
He won't even go there!

RodeoSchro said:

hey the frozen peas almost swings it NOT

chocolatehandles said:

I think your husband should be congratulated on his sensible attitude, you on the otherhand young lady seem just like florescent a damn dirty sadist

endymion said:

Then I won't even tell you that you have to do about 20 ejaculations and then bring in number 21 for analysis to make sure the procedure really did do its job.

'Cause no man likes to tell his wife, "Honey, you HAVE to do this - doctor's orders!" right?

endymion said:

He'll be fine! ... and I'm not forcing him into it. I offered to have a coil fitted, but he doesn't like the idea - he'd much rather have a vasectomy!

....anyway, he found it funny when I was in labour!

endymion said:

Not realy...I'm just tired of crossing my legs!

endymion said:

You do know that nothing actually happens to your dick during a vasectomy, right?

It seems quite obvious to me you are being a typical pedantic female tackam and I am having none of it

First off, you are not selfish of asking your husband to have the vasecotomy. After 3 kids, my wife asked me and I jumped at the chance. Why? I figured that we already had 3 kids, been together ten years and we were happy with each other, and since this was my wife, I would do pretty much anything for her. Getting the vasectomy was not problem for me.

endymion said:

There's always this option...

I'd get snipped, and if your husband is OK with it, it's definitely the less invasive, less potentially risky and less expensive route to go. But I think it's a tall order to ask anyone to undergo the knife if they don't want it. Also, should you guys ever need to repopulate the earth after alien invasion, vasectomies are tougher to successfully reverse.

I'd say weigh your respective healths and what sorts of procedures you've both undergone for the good of the family (three deliveries should give you a lot of street cred ) ...and decide on fairness.

It's 1.00am here, everyone is sleeping and I'm trying so hard not to laugh!
But I did replay it several times

chocolatehandles said:

I must have watched it 10 times too! Heheh.

Hubby has already consulted a dr to get a vasectomy. It is a much easier procedure for the man.
