Seems like people making more responsible choices when they know they will bear consequences for making poor ones. Who’da thunk it?

I get it, but what about in their latter years when they regret not having children.
It’s a big decision.

Vasectomies are reversible. I totally applaud their decision. I'm sure it won't be long before some Christian Minister comes out and condemns the practice or some Republican nut-job tries to pass a law prohibiting it.

I say good deal then

Being almost sixteen years divorced and seventy seven years old I won't be getting one.🤣 And if I did have a sex partner I don't believe she would be of childbearing age. Seriously though I also applaud their decision. Early prevention is much better than the alternative.

Agreed. What we need, now, I believe, is to roll back a lot of programs that have had the unintended (I hope) consequence of creating single parent homes. That issue being solved would solve a lot more, from education to addiction to many forms of crime, and would likely make an big dent in poverty.

I wonder if contraceptive products sales are going up as well? It's so much better to prevent a pregnancy then trying to end it.

Than I myself would condemn that Christian minister or a Republican.

I would think so.

Reversible, yes, but with a success rate just under 90% area according to my Doctor Daughter. She also tells me that, while insurance normally covers vasectomies, it doesn't cover reversal, and she added that the reversal surgery is quite a bit more expensive.

Years ago I made an appointment to get a vasectomy but chickened out. That resulted in me being blessed with an adorable precious daughter at the age of 51 which gives me a purpose in life to always be there for her whenever she needs me. She was a blessing and I'm sure all of you fathers and mothers feel the same way about your children.

Tell that to Justice Thomas who wants to outlaw contraceptives.

I don't know if that's true and I doubt it is but I would not agree with any decision to outlaw any contraceptive. Where did you get that information?
