I got a vasectomy when I was 31 and have never looked back. Would highly recommend it if you're committed to being child free. Was a simple discussion with my (male) GP and after a few questions to make sure I understood the implications and that I had thought it through he gave me the referral.

I really feel bad for women - they have so much more stigma and a harder time with this in general, even in progressive countries.
