re: Boyfriend wants a Vasectomy

Quoting LeTs*StArT*a*RiOt!:" What kind of compromise do you want when it comes to this? If he wants to do this, and she doesn't, ... [snip!] ... everyone would be telling her that it's her body, and her choice. I say the same thing. It's his body. It's his choice. "

Quoting LeTs*StArT*a*RiOt!:" Not really. It's his body. He can do what he wants with it, and if she has that much of a problem with ... [snip!] ... and give birth because the man wants to keep his child. Why should he have to not get a vasectomy because she wants more kids?"

Quoting J u l i a .:" Uh, you just gave me a perfect example of them compromising. Him deciding to harvest his sperm so that ... [snip!] ... with him isn't completely gone and when that decision comes on whether or not they want another kid they can deal with that. "

Quoting Mamma Boo!:" Ok I get your point his body his choice, but i dont see the problem in trying to see if there is a way of working some sort of agreement... I am not rushing this in any sort of way.."

Quoting LeTs*StArT*a*RiOt!:"   Yeah, no, because he has his vasectomy NOW in the situation I was describing. They can harvest the ... [snip!] ... later on if he changes his mind. That's not compromise, that's a way around the situation if he were to change his mind... "

Quoting BoogsMaMa:" You are still taking it to an extreme situation. If he chooses to just go get a vasectomy then that ... [snip!] ... his feelings as well. They are serious life decisions and it's selfish of him not to consider her feelings before doing so."

Quoting loser mom:" I think the only compromise (that's practical) is asking your boyfriend to hold off on a vasectomy for a while. A few months, a year, whatever..."

Quoting LeTs*StArT*a*RiOt!:" No, that's not pretty much it. He can harvest his sperm, he can get it reversed. Sperm still develop ... [snip!] ... should stop and not get it done because she wants kids. Same kind of situation. And your 'compromises' are not compromising. "

Quoting LeTs*StArT*a*RiOt!:" That's not a compromise. That's him deciding not to get it done... albeit temporarily, but still. OP, in 6 months if he still wants it and you want kids, what then?"

Quoting Mamma Boo!:" Well since he just brought the topic to my attention the other day and in 6 months he strongly still felt that way i would respect his choice on getting a vasectomy..."

Quoting The Doctor:" I would say that to him."
