I dated a guy who told me he was sterile. It was great not having to worry about birth control. I doubt I would have married him though . I knew someday I would want kids, even if it wasn't while I was in my young 20's.

I found out a couple of years later that he wasn't sterile after all. He had a son by another woman, all natural, all the way.

I broke out in a cold sweat when I heard that. So, truly sterile, to date, absolutely. Marriage, not likely.

I hope so.
There seems to be little interest from men to peruse development and get it on the market. Maybe because ya'll will have to get a shot in your jewels.

If it will get me going for 10 years I don't mind a shot in the jewels. At least that way I won't have to rely on the girl making sure she took her birth control.

Good deal. One shot, 10 years, no side effects, reversible. Makes you wonder why guys aren't interested.

I read in a study of 100 males, all 100 said they would not get the shot.

Exactly. Someone sterile because of disease, age, etc is someone different than someone who got sterilized. I could never date a man like that but could a man unable to produce children.

Is this about Taco Man?

anyway, if I know I want to have children and the guy I'm with got a vasectomy because he never EVER wants children, then no, I would not date him. If I did not want children then yes, I would date him.

If he's sterile from natural causes but wants children and is open to adoption, then yes, I'd date him. He didn't choose to be sterile--nature did.

I was. It is a different thing to be naturally sterile.
