If you don't want to father a child but you want to have sexual
intercourse with a woman, a vasectomy is a really great line of defense
there.
(A number of the guys that I know who have decided hey, they really don't
want to father children, or don't want to father any *more* children, have
had vasectomies. I can give the names of 2 docs in the North Austin/Round
Rock area that do a good job with vasectomies, and could probably come up
with 4 more names in the Greater Austin area within 48 hours.)
