I’ve never wanted kids, it’s just not my thing. I’ve been thinking about getting a vasectomy for quite a while now, and I finally decided to take the next step. I called a clinic, went in for a consultation, and the doctor explained everything thoroughly. My procedure is scheduled for a little over two weeks from today. My family is strongly against it. They believe I’ll change my mind as I get older and end up regretting it.

    Everyone tells younger men the same thing it seems. I heard the same bullshit from the time I started talking about it (vasectomy) as a teen. 35 now and nothing has changed, living the dink life with my wife and it’s great. Boomer parents aren’t too thrilled with the idea of 0 grandkids between their two sons, but that’s not my job… Might have felt a little sorry for them if they didn’t vote the way they do… But it’s those choices that have led us to an environment that makes it too difficult to even consider bringing kids into, and it seems it’s only getting worse.
