No, that's not too much to ask for. But if she says she would get an abortion, I don't want to take the chance that she changes her mind.

I think it's pretty obvious based on my posts that I stay celibate because I don't want kids. If you haven't figured that out by now...

No, I need to remain celibate. I've dedicated my life to never becoming a parent and I don't want to take any chances.

Choose? Forced to? "Bothered" that you're forced to? Confused much? The girl pants you like to wear will fit just a little bit better if you have a complete castration and thus all your little problems will be solved.
Yeah, I'm bothered that I'm forced to stay celibate. Because if a female never wants kids, she can have sex knowing she can get an abortion. But I need to stay celibate because I don't want to risk getting stuck paying child support.

I think you have made a rational, and well thought out decision,
and I support you. Go for it, or don't go for it. Stay safe.

city_data91.....

I must admit I have not read the whole thread.

So.....if you NEVER want to have children.....why don't you just have a vasectomy? I don't see the problem.

Vasectomies have been known to fail.

Vasectomy failure rate is 0.05%.

Double up, use a condom, get tested every year or two to make sure you're still shooting blanks. There's no reason to be forever celibate out of fear of parenthood, or fear of the big bad women out there.

You are right about that.....but it is rare.

You could ask your doctor to test your seman periodically for your peace of mind.......I am sure he would be happy to oblige.

That is sure a lot better than living your whole life celibate.

For good measure.....you could always use a condom too.

Periodically tested vasectomy + a condom = no worries of an unwanted child. You would be more likely to be struck by lightening.

If I'm content to stay celibate forever, I don't see what's so bad about that

Nothing wrong with being celibate for life if that is what is going to make you happy.

Sex is not the "be all and end all" in life. Many people do not have sex and live happy and fulfilled lives.

Just want you to know, there are viable options available for you if you happen to stumble across a special girl someday.
