It may be "unfair" that a man can ejaculate in a woman, impregnating her, then leave forever while she is "stuck" carrying and birthing the child, but you are aware of this fact of life. It is what it is. If we women don't want to be pregnant, it is our individual responsibility to make sure it doesn't happen. Yeah, it sucks, right along with PMS and periods and yearly exams, but there it is.
I can ask if a man has had a vasectomy (and trust his answer), I can demand he wear a condom, I can tell him not to cum in me, I can get on birth control myself, I can NOT have sex with him.... hell, at least I have options! (BTW some options are better than others, I know...)
I would never ask a man "what are you waiting for?" or ask a man to go have surgery because I don't want a child. By extension, if a man ever asks me "if you don't want kids why don't you just get fixed?" or "why are you on the pill?" I will respond by saying "because that's what's right for me and my body." Personally, for me, I feel like being on the pill and insisting on condoms is just fine. Is there still a 0.00001% chance I could get pregnant, YES. But I am very comfortable with that level of risk, for me.
No one wants to be told what to do (or not do), especailly when it comes to our bodies! |
Easy there Trixie. I have no clue as to where your hostility and how you think I(we) are asking someone to get fixed for our benifit. Who is telling who what to do??
We are clearly asking for peoples views on the said topic. What people do with their own bodies is their own choice. I am taking care of myself and getting fixed and hubby is already. I would never ask anyone to get fixed for my benifit. So help me understand.
I hope everyone will read the orginial post in the context for which it is written.
If a man doesnt want to get fixed, then that is his choice. Thats not in dispute. The question is why. What are their legitimate concerns if any? I dont want to hear the cop-outs of "no one is taking my man-hood," or "it will reduce my ejaculate", or "it will hurt" or BS like that.These excuses are null and void and are nothing but myths. WE are all adults here, so I am hoping for a real discussion on the topic.
