[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women are in 100% control of their bodies and fully responsible for their decision regarding birth control.

That does not translate to the right to infringe upon another person's bodily integrity by insisting he have a surgical procedure for your convenience.[/quote]

He doesn't need to get snipped but there is no reason for him to not bear the burden of birth control.

Sure there is, because it fundamentally isn't his burden.  His body doesn't have the capability of getting pregnant.  Hers does.  Women are in control of their bodies, but they're not in control of someone else's.  She has no more moral or ethical right to demand her spouse have  a vasectomy than he would be to demand she have her tubes tied.

You can't have it both ways, ladies--either you want autonomy, or you don't.  With autonomy comes responsibility.   If a husband has no right to make reproductive choices for his spouse, then she has to take 100% responsibility for those choices.  If she doesn't want to use birth control, that's her decision; if she doesn't want to have sex, that's also her decision.   However attempting to put the responsibility for her decisions upon her husband is infantile.[/quote]
