I know a guy who "doesn't understand why vasectomies are so popular all of the sudden. Any child is a gift, especially if you're fifty."
I don't want to have 15 kids that I can't afford and would only provide a terrible upbringing dipshit.
He also does not understand why women don't always give natural child birth anymore. "Women did it for hundreds of years."
Yes. The life expectancy was like 35 back then. This Christian anti science shit is beyond stupid.
That's bananas. "Any child is a gift" and "vasectomies being popular" aren't mutually exclusive. I have a lot of kids and I reached a point where I'd had enough. I love them all so deeply and if my wife said to me tomorrow that she was pregnant well then I would love that child dearly. I love kids.
Still....No more child tho plz. ✂️
There's a cautionary tale that does the rounds in our family about my auntie who somehow (now remember we're talking 1950's aggressively Catholic Ireland here) ended up having a conversation with her priest where she somehow implied that herself and her husband avoided sex around ovulation. From recollection it was during confession.
Priest says "no bueno". She says "okiedokie".
Nine kids. Nine. My mother is still angry about it and she's very, very old.
It's almost as if one shouldn't take advice from an imaginary source.
