re: Since women have the sole right to decide whether to abort or deliver a baby

quote:

---

Every single friend of mine who has had a vasectomy, the doctor who did the procedure had their wife approve it before it was done. None go to the same Dr. These were all married men. I don't know how this works for single men.

---

Single men don't need the permission of any woman in order to do whatever they want to their body including getting a vasectomy.

However, a married man needs to have the permission of his wife before he can get a vasectomy.

Yet a married woman does not have to have the permission of her husband before she can abort his child.

So much for the equality of men and women.

Not true

Married to woman..........she has baby........you father it for a year and then discover it's not yours?

Yup. In many states, you're STILL gonna pay the child support. Hell, in Hawaii, you're still gonna pay it even if you can prove who the actual father is!!!

I have never seen this happen to anyone I know. I know it happens a lot in certain trashy circles. I personally have never witnessed it. But just speaking from a fathers perspective, If I were married, and a child was born to us, that I believed from the jump was mine. I fathered the child, loved, cared for, spent time with. Like you would with any child born to you. I would have a VERY VERY VERY difficult time just tossing the child aside like an unwanted piece of trash, just because the mom is. Any "Man" who would do this, imo, is of questionable character. I can't imagine how hard it would be to be in that situation. I couldn't imagine the absolute grief I would feel if once of my boys turned out to not be mine. I would have a hard time just turning away from them. Especially after trying to suicide myself by alcohol.

Women KNOW most married men feel the same way you do so that's why they manipulate the man by telling him he is the father even when they know he isn't.

However, if the woman I married lied to me and told me I was the father of her child even though she knew I wasn't then as soon as I found out that I wasn't the father, I would have nothing to do with her or her child.

Let the father of her child take care of both of them.

I don’t buy that shite at all. Maybe your friends nutsacks were in the hands of their wives.

That’s essentially getting a permission slip to snip your own body as if you’re incapable of making that decision on your own. Not saying you are lying but I just don’t see that as being legal. At all. Gonna research and will be back

Edit: as suspected, your friends are all full of shite.....unless they are in Canada

Per NIH:

Consent by partner

It is not a legal requirement to involve both partners in the decision-making and consent process. There is a widespread misconception that a wife must consent to her husband undergoing vasectomy. If, against a man's wishes, his wife is informed of and asked to consent to her husband's vasectomy, this can be regarded as a breach of medical confidentiality and an infringement of an individual's right to self-determination (i.e. autonomy).

Nevertheless, it is good practice to involve both partners if the male agrees.

I never said it was a legal thing. I know it’s not law but it is a common practice from what I’ve heard from those who have had vasectomies
