I was at the zoo and watched a male mandrill mount and have intercourse with a female right in front of our eyes. 'Oh my goodness,' the mom of two small children in a baby stroller murmured. Two seconds later he was finished and he sat back against the wall.

Neither would apparently count for beans with you. All your concern is for yourself and how an unplanned pregnancy affects YOU because YOU might have to pay child support.
Getting surgically castrated is irresponsible?

You appear to have evaded answering my question here. Thus, let me ask you this question again--can all non-drastic forms of birth control fail even if they are always used correctly? Yes or No? After all, the New York Times appears to indicate that the answer to this question is Yes :

The point may even be moot, as your fertility has not been established. Your MD can help you on this. If you can't afford a doctor, use a pharmacy. There is a plethora of reliable data out there on all the forms of BC and your doctor can answer questions.
If I'm established to be fertile, though, then my testicles are certainly coming off.

Honestly, I think a therapist/ psychiatrist help you better than a regular doctor. This obsession is not the norm. Just because a few outliers on the internet agree with you, does not make it the norm.
So, do you think that vasectomy doctors should pay all of their patients' child support for 18+ years in the event of a vasectomy failure? Completely serious question, for the record. After all, according to you, it would be both extremely irrational and extremely paranoid to assume and to believe that a vasectomy can ever fail after azoospermia occurs!

Great to hear! Thus, do you think that pro-choicers should stop whining and complaining about the risk of birth control failure and unplanned pregnancy?

That's about all they're good for. Seriously, in 2015 people deserve better for their BC dollars.

Aren't condoms also good for STD prevention, though?

Yes, if used correctly and in conjunction with one another there will not be an unplanned pregnancy. I was very clear in my answer. Use a (1st method)female or male condom, (2nd method) spermacidal jelly, (3rd method) sponge/BC pill/ diaphragm, (4th method) knowing the females cycle, (5th method) reduce your fertility through hot baths and tight undergarments. combine them. The reason they individually don't work 100% when used alone is user error or compromised efficacy due to outside influences.

Think about how many high school and college students are sexually active. They certainly were at my school. I graduated with over 500 peers, and there was ONE pregnancy. I guarantee that girl was not the only sexually active teen. That's the most fertile time in any woman's life. The teens who are getting pregnant are not using birth control or using it effectively.

Removing your reproductive organs is your choice. I am sure you could get it done tomorrow if you go to Mexico. They have lots of medical tourism down there, so you might want to look into that.

Used in conjunction with other methods they are reliable and reduce some STDs spread. Use of a female condom is a very safe and reliable tool also.
