This is pure bullshit. Unless you know the dynamics of every relationship.

"they do NOT pay attention to those nerves in women because they do not find that to be worth the time...."

Who is "they"? The doctors? They don't care about their patients health & well being?

I'm sure one could argue the merits of vasectomies over getting tubes tied without using hyperbole, if one tried. Or gave a whit.
