Freedom No more condoms, no more pills, no more sticky gooey gels… Well, almost. 12 ejaculations and 2 negative sperm count tests later and there will no longer be a need for birth control. It’s been a couple weeks since my husband’s vasectomy and I think we’re ready for sex now that the pain is gone and the whining and whimpering is over. I can’t fathom what it’s like to walk around with testicles or to know what it feels like to have them cut open and stitched shut, but I have had stitches in my private parts (3 kids = 3 sets of stitches) and as uncomfortable as it was I don’t remember whining and moaning and groaning like him. Wait… I didn’t have the luxury because there was always a crying baby involved… and that’s why he had this surgery. He’s cried less than another baby would have. Still he’s done an awful lot of whimpering. I think women are wired to tolerate pain more than men. We were designed to give birth long before Demerol and epidurals existed. Plus we were designed to have to deal with men. Entirely different kind of pain, but pain none the less. I do appreciate him having this procedure done. My friend’s husband would never have it done. He’s way too “manly” for that, yet he doesn’t want anymore kids, won’t wear a condom and gets pissed at her if they have a pregnancy scare. Someone should tell him it’s 2007! I considered having my tubes tied but that’s major surgery. I’ve had enough things done to my womanly parts over the years and right now I don’t want any more strangers in white coats, scrubs or gloves poking at me. He was nice enough to not want me to go through any more pain and said it would be easier for him to get a vasectomy. Yeah, I have a sweetheart for a husband. So now we are on our way to sexual freedom. We just have to clear the pipes and get rid of all the little spermies that are hiding out. During this cleaning spree we will be doubling up on birth control since we are without a shadow of a doubt done with pregnancy and infants. I am so looking forward to having a sex life again… an enjoyable sex life free of latex and worries. It’ll be nice to rediscover what his penis feels like without a latex sleeve.
