The answer to the original question is really obvious to me... no matter how quick and easy the surgery, it's a big decision. Personally, it's not something my husband and I will consider for many years as we are not done having children. Maybe it's because we are so detached to the idea of sterilization at this time in our lives that I find this question so bizarre...

I think maybe what is bothering you has more to do with the male response to a vasectomy and the assumption that the birth control responsibility is disproportionately placed on females. I can understand that. I wouldn't want to be involved with a partner that I didn't feel like took appropriate responsibility for protection against pregnancy.
