text: are there side effects after a vaesectomy? my husband and i have 2 kids already and i have been begging him to get "snipped" but he swares that sex won't be near as pleasurable afterwards. is this true? wrong! the simple surgical procedure does not effect the man, except made his pride in any way. after my husband had a vasectomy we had more sex than before, because he was much less worried it would result in another pregnancy.  tell him to suck it up and be a man, and get the operation, or you could have your tubes tied, which cost 3 times as much, he could take time off his job to care for the children and household chores while you recuperate for about 6 weeks! and absolutely no sex for at least 6 weeks, if you have to have the operation.......seriously, they are only uncomfortable for maybe a couple of days!
