I would, although we haven't been 'blessed by God'!
If we had had two or three children, I think we'd both agree that that was it and we'd have to take some necessary precautions.

Yes, I think I can honestly say that I'd have the snip, especially as I have never liked johnnies.

Dogs don't seem to mind castration. If anything, they are a tad calmer.

Human males are least effected by vasectomies. By the time he has a vasectomy, his brain is already "hard-wired" as being male. Personally speaking, I haven't noticed a bit of difference between before and after.

England's birth rate has fallen substantially since the 60s. It went up a bit 5-10 years ago but it's going down again now.

Oh it's the vets who put you under so much pressure Mups. They make you feel you are a cruel and irresponsible owner if you don't have the op. I suppose the whole pet owning arrangement is artificial though. A bit "Stockholm syndrome"

I wonder if GP's acted the same Annie? If GP's pressured men into having a castration (not just a vasectomy), how keen men would be to comply. Yet they do it to the animals with barely a thought.

Re: Extinction the facts

Getting back on topic however, here is a view on how our changing world might actually alter how fast our planet spins.

After the initial writing, there is another link with a lot of information 'Climate Change.'

They would say the men will be more docile and not fight as much.... thus contributing to world peace. They have FGM in some cultures but no ritual castration for the same reasons.
