I am not politically correct and have been hassled over my views about
the *ultimate* responsibility for birth control being with the female
because she is the one who is going to have to deal with the pregnancy.
Any woman who takes a man's word for it that he has had a vasectomy is
taking a huge chance. I doubt that a woman who would know what a
vasectomy scar looks like would have to worry about one.

Birth control methods are not 100% effective. One SiL is an RN and
managed to get pregnant while on birth control, and the result was my
twin niece and nephew.
