Went under the knife yesterday (snip-snip)

I care not to discuss the topic of abortion in this thread.

That's what I thought. :whiste:

 

[vi edit]

Oh and FWIW, I got cut on the 9th of this month. Fully back in action right now. Actually played a couple hours of basketball on Monday night with no issues.

Just don't ride a bike for another week or two.

 

[Fausto]

LOL. Ok.

On top of the minimally invasive risk compared to women having surgery, the lack of hormone risk if they are on birth control, and the pure convenience over condoms...there's another factor that made sense for us. Money.

It was a one time cost for me, $650 out of pocket. We both work for Catholic employers and birth control is not covered. She had to pay over $50 a month for birth control pills. One year of no pills and my procedure is covered.

Her being on birth control for the next 15 years would be almost $10,000.

No brainer. It's not submission, it's being a man.

Remember who you're talking to here. The guy tromps around in the rain with a cam making youtube vids about "toughening up" for his forum of paranoiacs "survivalists".

How are you enjoying your new vagina, OP?

 

[ch33zw1z]

How are you enjoying your new vagina?

Yea, when you don't have to wear a condom anymore, it does feel new

 

[CZroe]

Everyone else: Lay off her. Ever hear of tolerance?! Can you imagine what it feels like being a woman trapped in a man's body for so many years? The societal pressure? The OP was forced to marry a woman, for Christ's sake!

 

[gorb]

Congrats to the OP. The angel hair pasta description sounds horrible. I'm all for voluntary sterilization. If you ever want another child, there are plenty available for adoption

I don't find the one bit funny in the least, even in a satirical context.

Ever hear of Essure? Its less invasive then the man getting cut.

 

[KeithTalent]

Congrats op! Enjoy the worry-free intercourse!

Don't let the whackjobs here get you down!

[FelixDeCat]

Don't couples practice celibacy anymore? Or has Viagra and porn put an end to that?

 

[Demo24]

A man getting cut is one of the ultimate forms of humiliation and submission.

When I was married to my first wife, my mother-in-law tried to "tell" me I was going to get cut. I told her real quick, and in no uncertain terms that "NO, I was not".

My mother-in-law went on to tell me it was easier for the man to get cut then a woman, and after the woman had the kids, that is the least I could do.

I do not care if it is easier for the man to get cut, I am NOT going to be cut, screw that.

Sterilization is an act of submission, and I am not submitting.

It doesn't have to be permanent dumb ass, significantly easier with a far higher success to reverse the mans procedure that the woman's.

 

[Fausto]

It's also way more expensive, carries a higher risk of complications, and is so new that data on its effectiveness beyond 5 years is not really known.

I'm always amazed how many macho retards like you are terrified of an outpatient procedure.

 

[nickbits]

I had the same proc done last year. Felt like I was kicked in the nuts for about a week.

No kids. Decided to get it done after birth control pills failed and the wife miscarried.

Cost me $20 for the consultation copay. I already met my deductible for the year so the surgery didn't cost me anything.

Wife still takes b/c though. They are $9/month at Walmart w/o insurance, so cost isn't an issue there. She likes the regular periods plus it is good backup. We do not want children ever and she is against abortion.

I don't understand the "remove myself from the genepool" psychology.

And?

Besides Essure there are a number of other options on the market. This 1980s mindset that its either the man get cut, the woman get cut, birth control pills or condoms shows how well yall keep with with modern birth control solutions.

Its called retaining control of your body.

 

[ichy]

She is the one giving birth. If she does not want to get knocked up, she needs to do something about it.

Every time you post it's like you're trying to say something dumber than in the past.

It is simple, effective, cheap, and non-hormonal.

Also, the irony of you accusing other of being "out of step" is magically delicious.

Its called retaining control of your body.

No, it's called rationalizing your vague ideas about what is "manly".

 

[ichy]

Don't couples practice celibacy anymore?

Why in the world would they do that when there are better options.

Sometimes I wonder if you're actually serious or are just trolling.

 

[Hugo Drax]

Congrats, now you can attend Motorhead concerts and raw dog it with no fear.:biggrin:

It's actually kind of impressive in an odd way. It's like going to the zoo and one of the exhibits is being promoted as JASPER MAN IN HIS NATURAL HABITAT.

99% of their fans are male, so you've pretty much always been able to do this.

 

[chusteczka]

I feel the need to side with Texashiker on the submission issue. This is not an issue in most relationships but there are some in which the woman is a pain in the ass dominant bitch that must control everything and tell the man what he must do. Short of smacking such women around to put them in their place, a man must stand up for himself. Being told or heavily suggested by such a woman (or her mother) that he must get snipped is submission that no man must ever accept.

In a fair relationship between two equals, submission is not an issue.

 

[SearchMaster]

I would do it but my wife no longer has a uterus, so there's no reason to go through with it.
