All the Vasectomy News That's Fit to Print
Posted on 11. Mar, 2008 by Brian Reid in General
As many of you know, I have a special interest in vasectomies and have become — wholly unexpectedly — the go-to resource on the subject for friends and fellow hockey players.
So I should let you know that four out of five guys want their downtime, so to speak, to coincide with a major sporting event. And March Madness is coming up. See the connection? The Oregon Urology Institute does. Act quickly: Selection Sunday is right around the corner.

It’s weird, I keep hearing of more and more guys doing this lately. My wife’s friend’s husband just went all in last week. This simply is not an option for me… ever.
I mean she already has got you by the B__ls, why surrender fully?(lol)
As a full time dad, I should probably take the time to write about this at my new blog. Read here if you are interested…

Weird; I hadnt thought of real medical procedures as vanity/luxury activities before, but its really a pretty good marketing ploy.
(Actually I suppose its not unlike some of my friends back in high school who got to spend Christmas break in Florida while having their “deviated septums” fixed… all of whom came back with surprisingly smaller noses.)
Anyway, for years I couldnt even think about snipping my boys without getting the willies, but then when I got into my late thirties it suddenly made sense and just felt like the right thing to. Had them snipped, and havent looked back.

Speaking as a mom, I have to say that we women think that men with vasectomies are heroes. The best of the best. We adore you. Men who want us to keep taking hormonal contraceptives past the age when it is safe for us or go through procedures that are more invasive than vasectomies? They are just not the kind of guys who satisfy us. Nope. Vasectomies…the way to really show you care. This has been a public service announcement from Lone Star Ma.

I can’t believe a snipping institute actually is hip to this! March Madness is XACTLY when we scheduled the vasectomy lo these 15 years ago. The mister kept one hand on the remote for two days — leaving the other free to readjust, as needed, the bag of frozen peas. It was brilliant, in idea and execution, if I do say so myself.

For anyone out there contemplating this procedure, all I can say is do it if you don’t want more kids. Lone Star Ma is right. You are a hero. And when opportunity knocks, there’s no fuss or delays.
Just take it easy for a couple of days, use ice packs liberally and before you know it you’re back in the game in no time, anytime and anywhere.
Got mine done right about this time of year. I haven’t watched as much college hoop since.

My friends husband got the Big V and the only down side was she now had no excuse to say “no.”

Who wants to say no to a man like that? We yearn for men like that. -Lone Star Ma

Oh joy. Can I, can I, please!?
Really, I do see the benefits to severing my ties to the ole’ boys. Most important, she won’t have to pop mood/body-chemistry altering pills for a few more decades, and/or no more unsensitizing rubber. Those are all the incentives I need. I will do it when the time, rises.
I realize we guys may need some powerful motivation to consider that procedure, but a week of uninterupted games?, they would really use that as an incentive/sales pitch? Well, whatever works I suppose.
